How to Create Playlists on Your Samsung Galaxy Tablet

Samsung Galaxy S22 For Dummies

Making a new playlist on your Samsung Galaxy tablet is easy, and adding songs to the playlist is even easier. Follow these five easy steps:

Find an album or song in the library.

Locate music you want to add to a playlist.
Touch the Menu icon by the album or song.

The menu icon is shown in the margin.
Choose the Add to Playlist command.
Choose New Playlist.
Type a name for the playlist and then touch the OK button.

The new playlist is created and the song or entire album is added to the playlist.

To add additional songs, or to build upon an existing playlist, repeat Steps 1 through 3, choosing the existing playlist in Step 3.

You can have as many playlists as you like on the tablet and stick as many songs as you like into them. Adding songs to a playlist doesn’t noticeably affect the tablet’s storage capacity.

To remove a song from a playlist, open the playlist and touch the Menu icon by the song. Choose Remove from Playlist.
Removing a song from a playlist doesn’t delete the song from the Music library.
Songs in a playlist can be rearranged: While viewing the playlist, use the tab on the far-left end of a song title to drag that song up or down in the list.
To delete a playlist, touch the Menu icon in the playlist icon’s lower-right corner. Choose the Delete command. Touch OK to confirm.

About the book author:

Dan Gookin has been writing about technology for 20 years. He has contributed articles to numerous high-tech magazines and written more than 90 books about personal computing technology, many of them accurate.
He combines his love of writing with his interest in technology to create books that are informative and entertaining, but not boring. Having sold more than 14 million titles translated into more than 30 languages, Dan can attest that his method of crafting computer tomes does seem to work.
Perhaps Dan’s most famous title is the original DOS For Dummies, published in 1991. It became the world’s fastest-selling computer book, at one time moving more copies per week than the New York Times number-one best seller (although, because it’s a reference book, it could not be listed on the NYT best seller list). That book spawned the entire line of For Dummies books, which remains a publishing phenomenon to this day.
Dan’s most recent titles include PCs For Dummies, 9th Edition; Buying a Computer For Dummies, 2005 Edition; Troubleshooting Your PC For Dummies; Dan Gookin’s Naked Windows XP; and Dan Gookin’s Naked Office.
