Description
Problem Description
There is no way to import a playlist from a CSV file. Users migrating from other music apps (such as RiMusic, Kreate) that export playlists as CSV have no way to bring their playlists into SimpMusic.
Proposed Solution
Add a CSV import option in the playlist section. The app should read song titles and artists from the CSV and match them to YouTube Music tracks.
Alternative Solutions
Currently the only workaround is to use a third-party service like TuneMyMusic to convert the CSV into a YouTube Music playlist, then sync it via YouTube account login. This requires giving third-party access to a Google account which is not ideal for privacy-conscious users.
Additional Context
Kreate and RiMusic both support CSV export/import natively. Supporting this format would make migration to SimpMusic much easier for users coming from these apps.
