How to remove duplicate tracks
-
Open Your Library > Playlists
Find the playlist that contains repeated tracks. -
Open Delete duplicates
Use the playlist menu, select Organize, then Delete duplicates. -
Confirm the action
Soundiiz reads the current playlist and removes the extra occurrences it can identify. -
Reload and review
Large playlists and music-service APIs can take time to show the final track count.
How Soundiiz recognizes a duplicate
Detection is provider-specific. Services commonly expose track or video identifiers; some flows can also compare normalized metadata. Two editions that look similar to a listener can remain separate when the provider identifies them as different recordings.
This tool removes repeated tracks inside one playlist. It does not find or delete separate playlists that happen to have the same title.

Important boundaries to check before paying or confirming:
Read what Soundiiz Error 104 means before retrying an unsupported action.
If duplicates return after a Sync
Deleting the current duplicates does not change the Sync that created them. Review its Add or Replace mode and investigate matching differences; repeated transfers or changing search results can add another edition later.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did Soundiiz remove nothing?
Reload both Soundiiz and the music service first. The repeated items may use different provider IDs or metadata, or the service may not support deletion.
Can Soundiiz remove duplicate playlists?
No. This action only removes repeated tracks inside the selected playlist.
Can I undo duplicate removal?
No automatic restore is available. Clone the playlist before cleanup if you may need the original order or contents.
Does this prevent future duplicates?
No. It cleans the current playlist once. A transfer or Sync can add another match later unless the workflow causing it is corrected.
