Deezer makes it possible to share playlists with friends on other platforms

 In a move to support boundary-less music sharing, Deezer playlists can now be opened on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube Music.

Paris, October 8, 2025 – Deezer, the global music experiences platform, continues to innovate and is now offering users the ability to share music with friends no matter which music streaming service they use.

From now on, when a user wants to share a playlist, a link is created that can be opened on other streaming services. Thanks to automatic song recognition technology, Deezer identifies equivalent tracks across platforms and redirects users to the right version of each song. The result: a smooth experience that meets a growing need — playlists are the second most shared type of content after songs on Deezer. This behavior is particularly clear with younger music fans and Deezer users between the ages 18-34 share over 190,000 playlists per week.

Alexis Czornomaz, VP Product & Product Design at Deezer, said: “Music is inherently social, but the arrival of streaming platforms has sometimes created walls between fans. With our universal sharing feature for playlists, we’re putting connection back at the heart of music and letting our users share their favorite songs with their friends. This spirit of openness is part of Deezer’s DNA and we want to encourage more connection between music fans.”

Over the past two years, the Deezer has multiplied initiatives to make interactions between fans easier and break down barriers between services. In 2023, the launch of Shaker enabled users to create collaborative playlists regardless of which platform they used. In April 2025, Deezer introduced universal sharing for songs, allowing users to send a track to a friend whether they were on Deezer or another service.
