I have almost 1000 songs in my "liked songs" list, which I would like to transfer to a new playlist.

I've read online that I can transfer "100 at a time using Ctrl+a on a PC" but I had no luck doing so on a Chromebook which is all I have at my disposal besides my phone. However the Ctrl+a method doesn't seem to be working for me, so I'm trying to use the android app.

I'm using a Galaxy S23 Ultra, trying to select songs manually to add, and I can't get more than a couple hundred songs added before the Spotify app crashes and I have to restart.

So I'm left wondering if there's any way I can just copy/paste my liked songs library into a named (new) playlist without having to manually add every one of them.

I got an email about the new TV interface for Spotify, it said it was for TVs, streamers, consoles, etc.

I open Spotify on the ATV and it’s the same shit it’s been for years.

They never implemented lyrics either.

I like it too much to move away, but this kinda pisses me off.

Hope this is one of the next best places to post and be able to return to. Going to the spotify/meta hosted community forum isn't working out for me due to login issues on multiple browsers and difficulty finding a report like my problem. Typing in just "Jam not working" on their website didn't even bring slightly relevant results.

So, each time I click a link a friend shares with me to join their Jam (formerly known as Group Session), the spotify app opens. If opened earlier and not on my homepage, it switches to the homepage. If the app was closed before, it opens to my homepage. After either scenario, nothing happens. If I'm playing spotify music already, the app opens to my homepage, and the music keeps playing. If I initiated a Jam, then click my friend's invite link, it opens to the homepage, the music I had continues playing, it shows I'm still in my own Jam, and nothing else happens. No matter how long I wait for something to happen after the homepage shows up, my friend's jam never comes up on my screen.

In case this is relevant:

  • Running android 13
  • Spotify version 8.8.80.599
  • VPN sometimes on, sometimes off, but same bug occurs either way. About a week ago, spotify would only open to show a message along the lines of "no internet connection", but it went away once VPN turned off.
  • Logging in through fb account without issue, even after uninstalling/reinstalling the spotify app
  • Subscribed with Premium Duo as main account manager (post edit: this fact was actually irrelevant)

Thank you for taking your time to read this post.

SOLVED: Spotify loathes VPNs, maybe? I haven't tested with a home VPN service. Consistently, I only get this problem when my phone is connected to VPN. The little key icon in the top-right appears when I'm connected one of my VPN services. I didn't pay close enough attention earlier. Also consistently, if I induce this error message, spotify jam only works after ensuring my VPN service is turned off (it could still be running, but as long as I'm not connected to vpn) AND I've swipe-closed spotify from my recent apps/task-switcher, then reopened the app.

Just noticed a new option when I went to share a playlist with a friend, it seems to be a snake clone where the music acts as the apples, but it doesn’t seem like android has got the Easter egg yet. You can find the option in the playlist options menu.
