Welcome to the TXT-to-AppleMusic-Playlist wiki!

This repository is about an Apple shortcut that converts a TXT file/text into an Apple Music Playlist.

DISCLAIMER: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. RESULTS DEPEND ON THE QUALITY OF THE TEXT INPUT. THERE IS NO WARRANTY ON RESULTS, AND ERRORS CAN OCCUR.

---

A. Needed:

• iOS device that supports shortcuts
• Apple Music App installed with a premium subscription
• List of songs in TXT format

B. How to use:

1. Get a list of songs/artists in TXT format.
2. Run the shortcut on iOS.
3. Select your playlist or choose "create new playlist."
4. Paste your TXT content in the input field.

Example :

1. Wait... This can take a while depending on the quantity of songs (approximately 2 seconds per song on average). --> You can monitor the progress in Apple Music by clicking on your playlist.
2. Done! You will receive a notification when the playlist is finished. --> Review the report to see which songs were successfully transferred.

C. Limitations:

• Avoid adding more than 1000 songs at once (waiting time will be very high).
• Avoid using special characters in the inputs (as the failure rate will increase).

D. Success rates:

• Based on a good quality file of 1000 songs/artists: 93% success, 3% fail, 4% false positive (wrong song added).
