I’m using the app to generate large, specific playlists using Claude to try to basically re-create what listening to the radio was for the bulk of my life. It took some back and forth with both tools, but I eventually got there, and now that I know the specifics of the app (tell it to “use album details when matching” to get the original releases vs live/remakes) I can generate just the list(s) I want. Only takes a few minutes to fully scan an 1800+ song list, I can browse for the partial matches to fix any I didn’t like.. and import only takes a few minutes.

Only need to make a one time purchase. I know it sounds kind of silly and I was skeptical but I figured it was so cheap I wanted to give it a try. I was really happy with the results. Some of the songs don’t translate perfectly but tbh you can tell exactly what it is and do it yourself. Also was very fast. The whole process of moving my playlists took maybe 10 min? And I have about 15 playlists 3-4K songs total. Gave me a chance to sift through my music and actually reorganize what I do and don’t listen to. Worth a shot !!

I was expecting a simple utility to import playlists, but what I got was subtle psychological manipulation. This is what happens: You download the app and get it to import a playlist. It chugs along meaningully, even suspiciously slow (hard work matching songs!) and then, SUCCESS! you can see the results of ihe import. Here i the first dark pattern. After the success, you are asked to rate the app. (no thanks, not now) the reason this appears at this point is because you haven't actually done anything useful, like import the data to Apple Music. When you do so, you're confronted with the limitation, 20 song max. Now, I could do 20 songs by hand, the point of an app like this is to import a mass of songs. Only at this point are you informed that this is a paid app. Why not just say this at the beginning? Well, it wants to put you through the work, go through the entire process of importing and THEN tell you it is a paid app. This is exploting the sunk cost fallacy. Because of this dishonesty, I feel manipulated and I will not be purchasing this app and I am writing this review to let the developer know that manipulating uses should never be rewrded. .

I had ChatGPT find music my mother would enjoy, 50s Elvis, Best Motown, etc.. I wasted a morning trying to build a shortcut that would read the ChatGPT text file and build the playlist. Finally I asked ChatGPT if there was an app available. I pasted a list of 20 songs into the Playlisty scratch pad (the free limit) and in seconds the playlist was in Apple Music. I’ve created four playlists with hundreds of songs each and Playlisty has performed flawlessly. Just an awesome timesaver.
