Can U Edit Playlist Spotify In App

You can change a playlist's name on both the Spotify desktop and mobile apps, but you will need to be the owner of the playlist.
To change a playlist's name on the Spotify mobile app, first access it from the 'Your Library' tab before selecting 'Edit Playlist' from the three-dotted Settings menu.
You can change a playlist name on the Spotify desktop app by selecting 'Edit Details' from the three-dotted Settings menu directly under a playlist's title.
If you don't see the 'Edit Playlist' or 'Edit Details' options, try refreshing the app — you don't have editing access for that playlist.

Playlist titles can be a form of self-expression, but sometimes inspiration just doesn't strike and you end up with something like, 'Happy playlist' or even just a string of random letters.

If you use Spotify, you don't have to keep those placeholder titles. You can easily edit the names of your playlists. However, you can only edit playlists that you own.

Here's how to edit a Spotify playlist's name, using either the desktop version for Mac and PCs or the mobile app for iPhone and Android devices.

How to change a playlist name on Spotify using the desktop app

1. Open Spotify on your Mac or PC and log into your account, if necessary.

2. Open the playlist that you want to change the name of.

Now, I can just point people to Spotify. While it’s not my podcast app of choice, I am extremely excited to see Spotify offering them as a gateway to podcasts. Don’t miss any new stuff — subscribe for updates! “Discover Weekly” and “Release Radar” Spotify has a couple of weekly playlists custom-tailored just for you. 2019-11-19 10:09 AM. I just upgraded to premium and it still doesn't let you edit playlists on ios/ipados 😞. The 'Edit' button is there, but it doesn't do anything but let you delete songs. Turn on the musiXmatch app (you can find it in the “App Finder” tab on the left-hand sidebar) and you can see the lyrics of most songs as they’re playing within Spotify.

3. Click the three dots under the name of the playlist and select 'Edit Details.'

Note: If you don't see this option, you don't have editing access for that playlist.

4. Add your new playlist name in the 'Name' field, in addition to a description if desired.

5. Click 'Save.'

How to change a playlist name on Spotify using the mobile app

3. Tap the three dots in the top-right corner of the screen and select 'Edit' or 'Edit playlist.'

4. Tap the title at the top and change it however you like, and then select 'Save.'

When you’re making a Spotify playlist, the songs will by default be displayed in the order in which you’ve added them to the playlist. On every version of the Spotify app, there is a way to reorder a playlist by dragging and dropping the individual tracks into the places that you want them to go.

This works just fine for small playlists with less than, say, 50 songs, but when the playlists get a little larger, or you’re making a public or curated Spotify playlist, you might not want them to be displayed in the order that they were added.

The other day I was in the process of making a fairly large playlist and that’s when I first ran into the dilemma of wanting to reorder a Spotify playlist without having to drag and drop the songs one at a time. I did some Googling on the topic, but every guide I found simply explained the drag and drop method to change the order of a Spotify playlist which I’m not even going to get into here because it’s a waste of time for anything more than 50 or so songs, unless you’ve got some real dedication.

I realized that there is a much easier way to do reorder a Spotify playlist, and all you need is a laptop or desktop with the Spotify app installed and your account logged in. You can use the drag and drop method to change the order of the songs on a Spotify playlist if you have a small playlist or a specific order in mind, if not then skip it and use this method that requires just a tiny bit of computer skills.

For the sake of this example, we’re going to put a playlist in alphabetical order by song title, and we’re going to use our playlist, South Carolina Greatest Hits. Note that depending on your operating system then your Spotify interface might look a little different than the one shown in the screenshots below. They were taken on a Mac.

Now, before you do anything I do want to warn you: The one potential problem with this method of rearranging the songs on a Spotify playlist is that the date listed under Date Added will be the exact same for every single song on the playlist. If that doesn’t matter to you, then no big deal, but if you want to maintain the ability to see when exactly you added a song to a playlist then you’re stuck with the drag and drop method.

Follow the steps outlined below to see what I’m talking about. Note that you can only arrange the songs by Title, Artist, Album, or Date Added.

1. Pull up the playlist you want to reorder on the Spotify desktop app

2. Click to sort the songs by Title

3. Edit -> Select All

4. Edit -> Cut

5. Edit -> Paste
