How to Create a Personal Playlist on HiBy Music App?

Q: How do I create a personal playlist in the HiBy Music app?

A: Here are several ways to create a playlist. Choose the one that works best for you.

📝 Method 1: Create an Empty Playlist First (Manual)

Best for curating songs gradually.

  1. Go to Playlist Management

Open the HiBy Music App → Tap the "List" icon in the top navigation bar → Enter the "Playlists" tab.

  1. Create New Playlist

Find the "Playlists" section → Tap "New Playlist".

  1. Name & Confirm

Enter your desired playlist name (Max 40 characters) → Tap "OK".

  1. Add Songs (Single Add)

Long-press any song → Select "Add to Playlist" → Check the playlist you just created.

⚡ Method 2: Batch Create (Fastest & Most Efficient)

Ideal if you have already selected a batch of songs you want to group together.

  1. In any song list (Local Songs, Albums, Artist page), long-press any song to enter Multi-Select Mode.
  2. Batch-select all the songs you need.
  3. Tap "Add to" at the bottom → Select "New Playlist".
  4. Enter the name and confirm.

✅ Playlist creation and song importing are done in one step!

☁️ Method 3: Cloud Sync (Backup & Restore)

Never lose your playlists again.

  1. Log in to your official HiBy Music account within the app.
  2. Any playlist you create will be automatically backed up to the HiBy Cloud.
  3. When you log in to the same account on another device, your playlists will sync automatically.

✅ Your playlists stay safe even if you reinstall the app or change devices.

📂 Method 4: Import External Playlist Files (.m3u / .m3u8)

For users migrating from other players.

  1. On the Playlist Management page, tap "Import Playlist".
  2. Select your exported .m3uor .m3u8file.

⚠️ Note on File Paths:

    • Relative Path Playlists: The song files must be in the same directory as the playlist file to be recognized.
    • Absolute Path Playlists: The current device's music directory structure must be exactly identical to the original device's, otherwise matching will fail.

❓ Quick Tip: How to Add a Single Song to an Existing Playlist?
