As a seasoned user of Amazon Music, I already have a huge data in my library that contains all my favorite tracks, playlists, albums, Unlimited downloads, and purchased MP3 tracks. However, this also caused a little pause in transferring Amazon Music from the old device to my new phone. Fortunately, I spent minutes and continue to stream my Amazon Music with all the collections.
Are you still troubled by the need to transfer Amazon Music data? If yes, I will show you how to transfer your Amazon Music library, downloads, and purchased tracks to a new phone completely. So, without further ado, let's dive in.
Method 1: Transfer Amazon Music Library to New Phone (Prime/Unlimited Plan)
If you subscribe to Amazon Music Prime or Unlimited, it's very easy to transfer your Amazon Music library to a new phone without data loss. Once you re-authenticate your Amazon Music credentials, you can access your Amazon Music library immediately. Follow the steps below to stream your Amazon Music library on your new phone.
Step 1 Go to the App Store if your new phone is an iOS system, while Android users navigate to the Google Play Store to install the latest version of Amazon Music.
Step 2 Once installed, click the Amazon Music icon on your phone's screen.
Step 3 You will enter the login interface, paste your Amazon Music account and password in the input bar to authenticate your Amazon Music plan on your new phone.
Step 4 Wait for seconds, after Amazon Music recognizes your account, you can successfully enter the initial interface of Amazon Music.
Step 5 Click the LIBRARY option at the bottom screen, and you can get all the data of your Amazon Music library from your old phone.
Method 2: Transfer Amazon Music Library to New Phone (Unlimited Signal Device Plan)
Differing from Amazon Music Prime or Unlimited, the Unlimited Single Device subscribers need special considerations to transfer the Amazon Music library from the old device to the new phone. If you transfer your Amazon Music library to a new phone without special settings, the paired Echo or Fire TV device will no longer connect to your Amazon Music library on the new phone.
Here are the detailed steps to move the Amazon Music library to new phone with the Unlimited Single Device plan.
Step 1 Switch the Associated Device to Your New Phone
Navigate to the website of Your Amazon Music Settings.
Find and choose Manage Devices option on the screen.
Click the drop-down icon and select your Echo or Fire TV devices from the available list.
Confirm to switch to the new device, and Amazon Music will remember your change.
Step 2 Authenticate Amazon Music on Your New Phone
After finishing the switching device settings, you can follow part 1 to install and authenticate your Amazon Music account on your new phone and stream your Amazon Music library on your Echo speaker.
Go to the Amazon Music library section and select any track to play.
Tap the Now Playing tab on screen, and you will see the Cast icon at the top of the screen.
Click it and choose your Echo device to connect, wait for seconds, and you will hear the song delivered from your Echo device.
Amazon Music Unlimited Single Device plan only allows you to switch devices twice per year. If you have multi-room needs, consider to upgrade it to the Amazon Music Individual Unlimited plan to stream Amazon Music without device limits.
Method 3: Download Playlists, Albums, Songs Directly on Your New Phone (Offline Listening)
Although you are not allowed to transfer your Amazon Music downloads from your old one to other devices directly, a time-consuming Amazon Music redownload on the Amazon Music app can also make sense.
Step 1 Set Up Amazon Music Apps on Devices
For starters, please make sure there're the up-to-date Amazon Music apps on 2 available devices (one for the old phone, another for a desktop).
On the old phone, keep the Amazon Music account as Sign In in the mobile app to access all the Amazon Music downloads.
On another device (For example: desktop), Sign in to the same account in the app.
Step 2 Access Downloaded Amazon Music on Old Phone
On another device, create a playlist in the app to include all the Amazon Music downloads in the mobile app.
Search to add the same music contents with the Amazon Music downloads.

Select Download. Once the Amazon Music download completes, the download icon will turn green with success.
