The equivalent to “liking” a song on Apple Music is simply adding it to your library. From there you can simply click on “Songs”

Tbh never tried making folders so I can’t help there sorry

wellnowletssee,

I am guessing that liking a song will have some sort of influence on my personal radio.

Yes it took me a while to understand that adding a song to a playlist shoves it in to my library also.

Yea exactly, liking a song in AM is primarily to improve the algorithms, nothing more.

wellnowletssee,

Ok thanks for the confirmation :-)

jemorgan,

Unfortunately I found that AM did a very poor job of generating an enjoyable personal radio from my “liked” (added to library) songs.

Really wanted to use it, and I tried for about 6 months, but I ended up going back to Spotify. First day going back to Spotify made me even more disappointed in AM because of how spot-on the music discovery is there.

FYI there’s a couple Apple Music communities on Lemmy u should sub to :)

wellnowletssee,

Oh nice thanks, will do so :-)

weedwhacking,

All three of these functions exist, but only in the desktop app. You can create a smart playlist for your loved songs, and create folders and move them in and out on the Mac and then the iOS version will respect and display it all, but you have to manage it from the desktop. Hopefully they bring these functions to mobile soon

wellnowletssee,

Ok thanks for the confirmation.

censor,

It’s an unfortunate situation, but there’s an app called ‘Miximum’ that I use to create a smart playlist for all of my “Loved” songs. Also works really well to make genre/decade specific playlists if you’ve got a large library

carl_dungeon,

You can make smart playlists- but you might have to do that on the Mac. Smart playlists collect songs by whatever criteria you want- say music you hearted from the 90s added in the last 6 months. You can go wild with custom selectors and they’re live updating. Those lists get synced to all your devices. Playlists can be nested in folders- again you might have to do that on the Mac side. I’m not sure in iOS you can move contents of folders or lists into each other but on the Mac it’s drag’n’drop. I do wish iOS music app had a mechanism for creating and adjusting the smart lists though, because they’re great.

The limited support for Smart Lists might be my biggest gripe for iOS. Yea, Music can use them, but you can’t create them. And Photos on iOS doesn’t support them at all.

It’s absolutely pathetic that they haven’t added that to iOS yet. It’s a gross oversight in my opinion.
