5 Easy Ways to Move Spotify Playlists to SoundCloud

Part 1. How to Transfer Spotify Playlists to SoundCloud with Move Your Music

SoundCloud's built-in Move Your Music feature lets mobile users transfer playlists from supported platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal, Amazon Music, and Resso. It allows users to move liked songs and playlists without rebuilding their music library from scratch. However, transfer results depend on SoundCloud's catalog, so some songs may not be available. SoundCloud also notes that availability may vary depending on subscription plans. For users who only want to move playlists, Move Your Music is the simplest option.

01Open the SoundCloud mobile app and sign in to your account.

02Tap your profile picture in the upper-left corner.

03Go to Settings.

04Select Import my music.

05Choose Spotify as the music source.

06Log in to your Spotify account and allow SoundCloud to connect with your music library.

07Select the playlists or liked songs you want to move.

08Tap Transfer and wait for SoundCloud to complete the import.

Part 2. How to Transfer Spotify Playlists to SoundCloud Using Playlist Transfer Tools

Playlist transfer tools like Soundiiz, TuneMyMusic, and FreeYourMusic help users move playlists between Spotify, SoundCloud, and other streaming platforms. These tools connect your accounts, read playlist information, and search the destination platform for matching tracks. However, they only transfer playlist data, not Spotify audio files. They recreate playlists using tracks already available on SoundCloud, so some songs may be missing or replaced with different versions.

#1Transfer Spotify to SoundCloud with TuneMyMusic

TuneMyMusic is a browser-based playlist transfer tool that helps users move music collections between Spotify, SoundCloud, and other services. It reads playlist details such as song titles, artists, and albums, then finds matching tracks on the destination platform. Users can connect Spotify, select playlists or liked songs, choose SoundCloud as the destination, and review unmatched tracks after the transfer. Many users choose TuneMyMusic because it is simple and convenient, although some songs may not transfer due to differences between Spotify and SoundCloud's catalogs.

01Go to the TuneMyMusic website.

02Click Let's Start or start a new transfer.

#2Transfer Spotify to SoundCloud with Soundiiz

Soundiiz is a popular playlist transfer service that supports Spotify, SoundCloud, and many other streaming platforms. It connects your accounts, analyzes playlist information, and rebuilds playlists using matching tracks available on the destination service. Soundiiz is often chosen by users with larger music libraries because it offers more playlist management features and supports multiple services. However, some tracks may not match due to availability issues, different versions, or metadata differences.

01Go to the Soundiiz website and sign in.

02Click Transfer under the Tools section.

03Select Spotify as the source service.

04Connect your Spotify account and authorize access.

#3Transfer Spotify to SoundCloud with FreeYourMusic

FreeYourMusic is a playlist transfer app available on desktop and mobile devices. It supports platforms such as Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Tidal, Amazon Music, and Deezer. Users can connect their accounts, select playlists or songs, choose a destination platform, and let the app transfer playlists while keeping their names and order. Many users choose FreeYourMusic for its dedicated app experience and wide platform support, although some transfers may still include missing or unmatched tracks.

Part 3. How to Move Spotify Music to SoundCloud with a Music Converter

A music converter like ViWizard Streaming Audio Recorder focuses on creating local audio files for personal listening when the target platform supports local file uploads. It converts music from 10+ streaming services, including Spotify and SoundCloud, into formats such as MP3, WAV, FLAC, AIFF, M4A, and M4B, allowing users to store and manage their own music libraries.

Instead of directly moving music between Spotify and SoundCloud, users need to upload converted audio files manually. Since each platform has its own rules, users should make sure they own the content or have permission to share it on SoundCloud.

ViWizard Streaming Audio Recorder supports both Spotify Music Converter and SoundCloud Music Converter. To use it, open the program, choose the required module, and log in to access your music library, including songs, playlists, and albums. Then select an output format and start converting. After conversion, you can manage the audio files offline and use them according to your needs.

Part 4. How to Upload Spotify Music to SoundCloud as Local Files

Then select your files or drag and drop them into the upload area. After uploading, you can edit details such as titles, artwork, tags, and privacy settings. Once completed, the tracks will appear on your SoundCloud profile. This creates new uploads instead of transferring Spotify playlists, so only upload music you own or have permission to share.

Part 5. How to Upload SoundCloud Music to Spotify as Local Files

Spotify's Local Files feature allows users to add personal audio files to their Spotify library. Open the Spotify desktop app, go to Settings, turn on Show Local Files, and add the folder where your music is stored. Spotify will scan the folder and add supported tracks to your Local Files library. You can find them under Your Library > Local Files and add them to playlists. To play them on other devices, use the same Spotify account and enable local file syncing. This method works for personal audio files, but it does not import SoundCloud tracks automatically, so you need the actual files and permission to use them.

02Open the Spotify desktop app.

03Click your profile picture and select Settings.

04Scroll down to the Local Files section.
