Tidal import

Make a Music Card Game from a Tidal Playlist

Paste the link to a public Tidal playlist and Hitify turns it into a guess-the-year card game. No Tidal login on our side, and no subscription needed to build the pack. At the table your household can stay in Tidal: the scanner lets you pick Tidal as the playback service. Free up to 100 cards.

How it works

From Tidal playlist to printed cards

One link is all it takes. We handle the track list, the matching and the years.

01

Make the playlist public and paste the link

We cannot read a private playlist, because we never sign in to your account. Set it to public, copy the link and paste it into Hitify.

02

We match by ISRC

Tidal supplies an ISRC for most tracks. That code belongs to the recording itself, so we tie the card to the right version and use it to check the year.

03

Download the PDF and play

Pick a card style, download the PDF and print. Scan, listen, guess the year. Want proper card stock instead? Order printed cards.

Why import from Tidal

Built for people who care which recording it is

Playlists only, and it says so

Paste a tidal.com/browse/playlist or listen.tidal.com/playlist link. Album and artist URLs are rejected with a clear message, so nothing fails silently.

Matched by ISRC, not by title

An ISRC identifies the recording rather than the song title, so a live take or a remaster is not quietly swapped for a different one.

Years verified against MusicBrainz

That same ISRC is what we use to check the release year against MusicBrainz, which stops a 2011 remaster from dating a 1973 song wrong.

Play in Tidal at the table

The QR code opens a Hitify page that plays the song. Open the Hitify scanner, set Tidal as the playback service, and a Tidal household plays in Tidal.

Straight about the limits

What the import does and does not do

Every card ultimately plays through Spotify, so each Tidal track is matched to its Spotify equivalent. When the importer cannot find one, that track gets no card. After the import you are told how many of your tracks matched, so you never have to guess what ended up in the pack. One playlist imports at most 500 tracks.

The QR code on the card always opens a Hitify page. Tidal households can play in Tidal because of the Hitify scanner, where you set Tidal as the playback service. Alongside Tidal we import from Spotify, YouTube Music, Deezer and Apple Music. For Apple Music we read catalogue playlists and playlists shared with a public link, but not a private library playlist, so share it first and paste that link. Ready? Paste your playlist.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which Tidal links can I paste?

Links to a public playlist: tidal.com/browse/playlist/... or listen.tidal.com/playlist/... Paste an album or artist link and you get a message telling you only playlists work.

Do I need a Tidal account or subscription?

Not to build the pack. We never sign in to Tidal and only read public playlists. To listen in Tidal at the table you naturally need Tidal yourself.

Can we play the songs in Tidal instead of Spotify?

Yes, through the Hitify scanner. The QR code opens a Hitify page, and in the scanner you set Tidal as the playback service. The QR code itself does not link straight to Tidal.

Why did some tracks not become cards?

Because no Spotify equivalent could be found for them, and a card has to be playable through Spotify. The importer reports how many tracks did match.

How many tracks can one playlist have?

We import up to 500 tracks per playlist. Got more? Split the playlist and import it in parts.

What does it cost?

Your first 100 cards are free as a PDF download, no account needed. Printed cards can be ordered if you want them on real card stock.
