Apple Music Playlist Playground
What it is
Apple Music Playlist Playground creates playlists from a song or a prompt describing a mood, genre, activity, or era. It requires an Apple Music subscription, Sync Library turned on, and an internet connection. Users can rename a generated playlist, reorder tracks, refine it with additional searches, add suggested songs, and save the edited result. The listed playlist limit is 25 tracks. Playlist Playground is in beta and available only in English in the United States to Apple Music subscribers aged 13 or older. Apple documents support for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. The wider Apple Music service has over 100 million songs, with ad-free listening and offline downloads on paid plans, plus Spatial Audio and lossless audio. Monthly plans listed are Student at $6.99 a month, Individual at $11.99 a month, Family at $19.99 a month, and Apple One at $21.95 a month. Student requires verified student status, and Family supports sharing with up to five people. Apple says it collects listening activity to personalize services, send notifications, and compensate partners; that activity and related library information may be retained while a subscription is active and for up to two years after cancellation.
