This integration is powered by SongShift. Essentially, Apple appears to be integrating SongShift into its Apple Music app for Android. This will make it easier for users to switch from Spotify or other music streaming services to Apple's service.
SongShift is a service that has been available for several years. It allows users to easily move their music libraries and playlists between different music streaming services. You can, for example, use the SongShift app to transfer playlists from Apple Music to Spotify or vice versa.
There is still no information whether Apple has plans to also bring SongShift integration into Apple Music on the iPhone. Typically, Android and iOS versions are kept on equal features. This is an interesting new feature that will certainly give Apple's service a unique advantage over the Spotify and other streaming services.
