Luckily, in Spotify, your favorite music can be grouped in a playlist to save time clicking or tapping around to get from song to song. Using a free or paid subscription, you can create playlists, listen to playlists started by your friends, or those compiled by Spotify. If you want to edit a playlist started by someone, you’ll need to duplicate it first.

Currently, you can only duplicate Spotify playlists using a PC. Read on to learn how.

Duplicating Masterpieces in Spotify
Unless a playlist is collaborative, you won’t have the option to edit it when it’s created by someone else. That’s why the ability to copy playlists is invaluable and especially handy when you want to make a few tweaks to a playlist you’re impressed with. Using your premium or free account, you can copy a playlist via the desktop app or web player.
