Sort Your Spotify Playlists by Any Property

Skiley lets you sort any Spotify playlist by virtually any property — track name, artist name, album name, duration, date added, release date, popularity, BPM, musical key, energy, danceability, valence, and more. Whether you want alphabetical order, chronological order, or audio-feature-based sorting, it's all one click away.

Sort by Track Name, Artist Name & Album Name

The simplest and most popular way to organize a playlist: alphabetically. Sort by track name to find songs quickly, sort by artist name to group all songs from the same artist together, or sort by album name to arrange tracks as they appear across albums. Skiley supports ascending and descending order for all text-based sorts. It's especially useful for large playlists with hundreds or thousands of tracks where scrolling and searching manually becomes impractical.

Sort by Duration, Date Added & Release Date

Organize your playlists chronologically or by track length. Sort by date added to see your most recent additions first (or revisit the oldest tracks you added years ago). Sort by release date to arrange tracks from newest releases to oldest classics, or vice versa. Sort by duration to group short tracks together for quick listening sessions, or find the longest tracks for deep listening. These sorts work with any Spotify playlist, including collaborative playlists.

Sort by Popularity

Every track on Spotify has a popularity score based on recent play counts. Sort by popularity to surface the most-streamed tracks in your playlist — perfect for creating crowd-pleasers at parties — or sort in reverse to find hidden gems and underappreciated tracks buried in your collection. Popularity sorting is a great way to rediscover songs you may have overlooked.

Sort by BPM & Musical Key

For DJs and music producers, sorting by BPM (beats per minute) and musical key is essential. Build sets with smooth tempo transitions, or arrange tracks by key for harmonic mixing using the Camelot wheel. Skiley fetches BPM and key data from Spotify's audio analysis for every track in your playlist. Sort ascending for a gradual energy build, or descending to wind down. Combine BPM and key sorting to craft the perfect DJ set in minutes.

Sort by Energy, Danceability, Valence & Audio Features

Spotify analyzes every track for audio features like energy (intensity), danceability (rhythm suitability for dancing), valence (musical positivity or happiness), acousticness, instrumentalness, speechiness, and liveness. Skiley lets you sort by any of these. Create a playlist that gradually builds energy, or one that starts upbeat and mellows out. Sort by valence to arrange tracks from sad to happy. These audio-feature sorts unlock creative playlist arrangements that aren't possible with Spotify alone.

How It Works

Connect your Spotify account, select any playlist from your library, choose your sort property and direction, and click sort. Skiley reads your playlist, fetches the metadata and audio features for every track, and reorders them instantly. You can preview the new order before saving. The sorted playlist can be saved as a new playlist or applied to the existing one — your original playlist is never modified without your permission.
