How to import a Youtify playlist into Lyra

Updated on October 19, 2026

Lyra imports Youtify playlists from their exported .json file. In Youtify, open the playlist and tap the export button, then pick Lyra or save the file. In Lyra, go to Library → Import playlist → Import from Youtify → Select Playlist File, then tap Import. The playlist takes the name of the file.

Differences by device

Good to know

• Only .json files exported from Youtify can be imported.
• The new playlist is named after the file: rename the file first if you want a different name.

If something goes wrong

“Invalid Youtify playlist file”

The file isn't a Youtify export, or it was changed. Export it from Youtify again and pick the new file.
