Spotify is a music, video, and podcast streaming and media service that allows you access to a wide database of songs, videos, and podcasts. You can make a playlist if you prefer to listen to a specific selection of your favorite songs.

There’s no limit to how many tracks you may add to a Spotify playlist. The good news is that you can easily add songs to a playlist both on desktop and on mobile.

Here’s how to do it.
