Playlist Art on iPhone after IOS 13

That was the first thing I tried when it happened, and then I tried it many, many more times.

Doing a hard refresh may correct some of the cover art but once you start using the music app again they go straight back to randomizing themselves.

Word is that the issue is fixed in the 13.3.1 beta so hopefully once it is fully released this issue will be no more.

I have same problem. now on version 13.3 and still not fixed. contacted apple and they even took control of my phone and could see the problem for themselves. they said it would be reported to there tech team and that I should wait for an update that would hopefully fix it. well that was one iTunes update and one ios 13 update ago and problem persist. very frustrating. I do use iTunes for windows and they assured me that didn't matter. curious if anyone else is still having the same problem.

Really losing confidence in Apple lately! I have had iPhones since day #1 and every model upgrade every time they came out, I have iPad and Macbook Pro, and my wife and kids all have iPhones and Macbook Pro's. I spend a lot of money with Apple and the last 2 years of bugs in software and their lack of QC in software updates is really frustrating beyond words. This playlist artwork is VERY ANNOYING and I use my playlist all the time in the car and the artwork issue is driving me nuts! The bug fix should have been done quite a while ago now. I may have to rethink my Apple purchases going forward.

After the last update, my playlists don’t work. These are songs I’ve purchased from iTunes. I can’t pick an individual song to play. It refuses to play it. I would like Apple to pay me back for all the music I have bought but now can’t play. So, it’s not the art, it’s the songs. Anyone have a suggestion?

Looks like the 13.3.1 update has finally fixed this issue! I just updated my iPhone X and all the playlist cover art is back to normal.

To anyone else having this issue, do the update and fingers crossed it will be resolved for you.

For me, it's better with 13.3.1, not not fixed. Most of the playlists in Music now show correct -- or at least not wildly wrong -- art/icons. I scrolled through after the update and didn't see things that were obviously wrong, but I didn't go through everything in detail. I saw a few things that didn't look right, but I haven't had a chance to compare the artwork on my iPhone against that in iTunes yet.

Video/TV show playlists in the TV app (also imported through iTunes) are still wrong, though, for me.

Still, a (partial?) fix is better than nothing.

Thanks for the info that the new IOS 13.3.1 sort out the problem. But IO13 has been so buggy in some of the basic apps that I am now worried that there will be something else going wrong. I will wait a week.

Yes, I updated to iOS 13.3..1 and also iTunes for Windows (12.10.4.2) and all is well. I even got brave, deleted a couple of playlists (multiple albums) and it happily synced with correct artwork. It's been a while!

I can also report with the 13.3.1 update did fix my iTunes album artwork on my phone. finally. I hope that apple in the future will do a better job at testing before releasing ios 14. this was a problem for what, 4 almost 5 months. steve jobs is rolling over in his grave. come on apple get it together. if you don't I have a feeling u will start to lose customers. you were always the gold standard lets get back there.

The latest updates still haven’t fixed my Album Art Issues, I’m running Catalina 10.15.3 on my Mac, iPad OS 13.3.1 on my iPad Pro 3rd Gen, and IOS 13.3.1 on my iPhone 11Pro Max. I have over 29K songs on all my devices, and at least a third of the album artwork is missing on my Mac, iPad, and iPhone. I don’t subscribe Apple Music. These are songs I bought from iTunes and ones put on my devices. Some of the album art is not only missing on my iPhone, some of the album art is also mixed up on various albums and playlists. In other words the wrong album art is displayed on some of the albums and playlists, only on the iPhone. I see that some of you said that the latest updates fixed your album art issues. Is it something else I need to do other than syncing my devices to the Mac? I’m beyond frustrated with Apple, because I made several trips to the Genius Bar, talked to various techs and engineers online and by phone, and sent two emails to Mr. Cook over the course of four months regarding these issues. I feel that Apple should do more to address these annoying issues, because for the amount of money Apple demands for their premium products, we in return demand premium service. I believe if Mr. Jobs were here, he would crack the whip or heads would roll.

How do I stop following this thread?!!! I no longer wish to get emails and this won’t let me stop following this thread.

And of course no way to contact Apple Support for this.

Hello spam filter I guess.

I did the update last night, my cover art was still jacked for certain albums and playlists still.....did a resync on my iTunes and still no change

I see most of you got resolved by just doing the update, but is anybody in my boat and have to do an extra step to resolve this issue ?

I have an iPhone 6s. I was having the same problem with scrambled playlist art for the past 6 months, since iOS 13 at the end of September 2019..... until NOW. I have just downloaded iOS 13.3.1 and my playlist art is FINALLY back to normal and no longer scrambling each time I play a new song in my library. Better late than never! Whew! I hope my act of sharing this good news will give others enough hope to download iOS 13.3.1.

Hi all. I just did the 13.3.1 update and my iTunes artwork is still screwed up. I see posts of people who are now OK and others who are not. What's missing? Must I remove all music and put them back again through my MacBook? I have hundreds of albums... that just sucks! Thanks for your help.

It seems this issue finally got resolved with Ios 13.3.1 - at least with my iPad. ****, it only tok Apple 6 months to fix this. I am going to be very cautious in installing any new Ios in the future until they've worked out all the bugs.
