I believe you will agree with me when I say that we all have made silly mistakes in our lives that we regret. Deleting a playlist is one such mistake. Meanwhile, this sort of mistake can be corrected if done appropriately. So, if you accidentally delete a Spotify playlist and subsequently regret it, don’t worry because Spotify offers a “undo” button that allows you to recover a playlist you have erased. Of course, you should think twice before removing something, and Spotify requires you to confirm your decision before it deletes your playlist. Meanwhile, in this guide, we will take a look at how to recover deleted playlists on Spotify. This, without much further ado, let’s get started.
Steps Involved On How to Recover Deleted Playlists on Spotify
Before we get started, it’s important to note that you can only retrieve playlists that were deleted within the last 90 days. As a result, after three months, you won’t be able to recover deleted playlists. Now that it’s out of the way, here are the steps to take:
- Go to your Spotify account page and sign in.
- Tap Account after clicking your profile icon in the top-right area of the screen.
- In the left column, scroll down and select Recover Playlists.
- After that, you’ll see a list of playlists you’ve deleted in the previous 90 days. Spotify will display the playlist’s title, the total number of songs, and the deletion date so you can find the playlist you wish to restore quickly. Select the Spotify playlist you want to restore and tap the “Restore” icon next to it.
- After that, you are done. The restored playlist can now be found at the bottom of the playlists section in the Spotify app or web player.
Note: Keep in mind that your recovered Spotify playlist may take a few minutes to show in the Spotify app. If after waiting patiently, you still don’t see your old playlists, try making a new playlist; after you do, your restored playlists should display at the bottom of the list.
