Common questions

Is transferring from TIDAL to YouTube free?

Yes. SongShift is free to download on the iOS App Store, and you can transfer playlists from TIDAL to YouTube for free. An optional Pro subscription (starting at $6.99/month) adds features like batch setup, faster matching with SpeedMatch, ongoing playlist sync, and unlimited service connections.

Will transferring delete or change my TIDAL playlists?

No. SongShift only reads your TIDAL library to match songs on YouTube — it never modifies, reorders, or deletes anything in your source account.

What can I transfer from TIDAL to YouTube?

You can transfer playlists, albums, and songs from TIDAL to YouTube. Only music that is officially available on YouTube can be matched, so user-uploaded or unreleased tracks won’t carry over.

How long does a transfer from TIDAL to YouTube take?

Most transfers finish within a few minutes. Very large libraries take longer, and because YouTube syncs library changes over the cloud, allow a little extra time for playlists to show up on all of your devices.
