Step 1: Open the Spotify app.
Step 2: Choose the Your Library tab at the bottom-right corner of the screen.
Step 3: Select the Playlists option.
Step 4: Tap the menu icon (the one with three horizontal lines) at the top-right corner of the screen. You may need to swipe down on the screen to get the icon to display.
Step 5: Choose the Name option.
All of your playlists should now be listed alphabetically. You can return to the previous sorting by opening this menu again and tapping the Custom option instead.
