How about you let us empty the cache permanently?

Do you remember the days Apple used to announce an iOS update in June, detailing all the new features, and then in September they’d release that iOS update, with all the new features??

The last few years it has felt so incremental. The iOS updates themselves seem to include less genuinely new features, which I’m ok with, don’t reinvent the wheel and all that, but what is included tends to just be stuff that falls into the category of ‘well it should really have done this before, don’t celebrate the fact you’re giving us something that we should’ve had for years now’ (interactive widgets for example). Then on top of that, we get this incremental roll-outs where it feels like they’ve simply not met the deadline and instead drip-feed us things as and when they’re ready over the following months.

I really do think it’s arrogance to some extent. They’ve got such a big market share now that they really can do what they want, whether it be hiking the prices of services and products, or producing increasingly incremental hardware and software ‘upgrades’. I love Apple, but I’d really love someone to come along and kick their ass for a while to spark them into life properly again.

Does it bring back sorting albums by “recently added”?

Sweet this was the feature I was waiting for most of all. I missed the similar function from Spotify.

Finally! I’ve been wishing for collaborative playlists for ages. It’ll be much easier to manage the kids playlists with my partner.

I love how they add a spotify feature (like a song+helps algo+makes a playlist with them) years later AND over 2 OS updates 😂

A “Favorites” playlist will probably be the only playlist I use on Apple Music. Never created one before. Just use the “channels” feature most of the time.

I don’t want anyone seeing the music I listen to.

Is there any way to turn off the feature that adds favorites to your library automatically? It’s pushing down my recent albums that I actually listen to pretty often.

I don’t understand how this is useful. I got a free 6 months Apple Music with my AirPod Pro. I let the trial lapse and when I reduced to Apple Music, all my favorites and loved tracks and playlists were permanently deleted. What’s the point of favoriting things if Apple is just going to completely erase your preferences every time you take a break from the subscription?

Apple Music blows ass and this will not fix it.

There is absolutely no reason to bundle these Apple Music enhancements with an OS upgrade. So stupid.

I have a “Loved” smart playlist that does the exact same thing. Intriguing to me they never brought smart playlist to iOS.

Can anyone test if this ‘Favorites’ playlist carries over to iTunes synced media? I don’t have Apple Music. I see that I am able to favorite songs and sort by favorites on 17.1.

I just want Apple Music to stop forcing me to listen to Ether and Swimming Pools in every playlist
