The playlist feature in Spotify provides a useful way to listen to all of your favorite songs. Anytime you hear a song in Spotify that you like, it’s just a matter of a few button taps to add that song to a list.
But occasionally you may discover a new artist, or you may decide that you like all of the songs on a particular album, and want to put them on a playlist. But adding all of those individual songs can be tedious, so adding the whole album at once can be a bit of a time saver. Our tutorial below will show you how to add a full album to an iPhone Spotify playlist.
