Google Play Music To YouTube Music : Transfer Tool Announced

If you are using Google Play Music, this is useful for you. Google has announced a transfer tool for Play Music users to transfer all their uploads, purchases, added songs and albums, personal and subscribed playlists, likes and dislikes, curated stations, and personal taste preferences.

If you are not using Google Play Music, ignore this.

But if you have uploaded your music collection to Play Music, and want to shift o YouTube Music, wait for your turn. Because Google is releasing the transfer tool gradually to its users.  

How to transfer Google Play Music

Download the YouTube Music Android app. And scroll down to the bottom. You will see the 'Transfer button'. This is what Google said in the blog post. But you don't have to try it frequently if the button is available for you or not. Google will notify you via Gmail and Android notification. You can use https://music.youtube.com/ also instead of the android app.

Thanks for the tag – the ability to transfer your playlists from Google Play Music to YouTube Music is still being rolled out. More info about the migration here: https://t.co/8AjPELApRc
