Hi cool people,

does there already exist a feature or addon in Mp3Tag which allows me to use/export the playlists I created on my phone so it can automatically detect and use them in a music app?

Thank you and kind regards,  
Alex

Playlists are plain text files with a list of filenames.  
You can already now generate playlists.

I do not see MP3tag to be the responsible instance but the player that has to be able to read such a file.  
I do see a problem in respect to filenames:  
AFAIK relative paths have a different syntax in Android than in Windows.  
Also, I think that a locally generated playlist can only be of use on a second system if the referenced file structure is the same on both systems.

You generate playlists with functions from the File menu
