Merge Spotify Playlists: Combine Two (or More) Playlists Into One (In Order, Without Duplicates)

If your songs are spread across a bunch of playlists, merging them into one “master” playlist can be a huge quality-of-life upgrade. Here’s the easiest way to do it — with optional duplicate cleanup.

If you’ve ever tried to “merge Spotify playlists” and ended up copy‑pasting songs around for an hour… yeah. It’s surprisingly easy for your library to grow into ten small playlists that should be one.

The good news: you can combine playlists without messing up your originals — and you can decide whether you want to keep duplicates or remove them.

If you just want the fast path, start here:

If you’d prefer a short overview page first, this landing page links straight into the merge workflow: Combine multiple Spotify playlists.

“Merge” vs “Blend” vs collaborative playlists (quick clarity)

People use “merge,” “mix,” and “blend” interchangeably, but they’re different things:

  • Merge playlists (what this guide is about): create one new playlist that contains songs from several playlists.
  • Collaborative playlists: a shared playlist that multiple people can edit. Spotify’s help page is here: Collaborative playlists (Spotify Support).
  • Blend / social playlist features: Spotify’s friend-based playlists and social recommendations (useful if you want an ongoing shared mix). Spotify’s help page is here: Social recommendations in playlists (Spotify Support).

If what you want is a single combined playlist you can keep, merging is usually the simplest.

MyPlaylist.Tools’ merge workflow is designed to be boring in a good way: you select your sources, choose the order, and it creates a brand‑new output playlist.

  1. Open the Spotify Playlist Merge Tool.
  2. Select at least two source playlists.
  3. Arrange the playlist order (top to bottom) so the combined playlist is built in that same order.
  4. Leave “remove exact duplicates” on if you want a clean merge.
  5. Create your merged playlist.

Nothing happens to your source playlists — you get one combined copy you can rename, share, or edit however you want.

How to merge playlists “in order” (so it doesn’t feel scrambled)

A super common frustration with “combine Spotify playlists into one” is that the result feels random — intros/outros don’t line up, and you lose the “chapters” each playlist used to represent.

The Merge Tool keeps this simple:

  • the first playlist you select becomes the first block of songs,
  • the second playlist becomes the next block,
  • and so on.

If you’re making something like “warm‑up → peak → cool‑down,” that playlist‑block order matters.

How to merge Spotify playlists without duplicates

When people search “merge Spotify playlists without duplicates,” they usually mean one of two things:

1) Exact duplicates (same track repeated)

This is the easy case. The Merge Tool can remove exact duplicate tracks while building the combined playlist (it keeps the first occurrence and drops repeats).

2) Near‑duplicates (same song, different version)

This is where things get subjective:

  • remaster vs original
  • clean vs explicit
  • live vs studio
  • single vs album version

If you want to catch those after you merge, run a cleanup pass with smart matching:

If your goal is a playlist you’ll actually listen to, these follow-ups make a big difference:

  1. Merge sources: Spotify Playlist Merge Tool
  2. Remove near‑duplicates (optional): Spotify Playlist Duplicate Removal Tool

A quick note on limits (so you don’t get surprised)

Spotify playlists have a track limit (commonly cited as 10,000 songs). If you try to merge a lot of huge playlists into one, you may need to:

  • merge into multiple “Part 1 / Part 2” playlists, or
  • merge a smaller set first, then build a second combined playlist.
