Playlist Art on iPhone after IOS 13

Same problem here. There seem to be a number of these threads now. I've done everything I could think of with my iPhone 8 and Windows 10 iTunes and it still keeps randomly selecting wrong album art from those available. I've discussed the matter with Apple Support on Twitter but with living in the UK, plus the many other issues they are dealing with, it was taking forever and few actually suggestions. They're now wanting to phone me but I'm waiting until I've seen what happens after the 13.1 update.

iOS 13.1 came out today ... haven't had a chance to download it yet ... can anyone confirm the bug is still there (probably would be, since iOS 13.1 was release almost 1 week early ... doubt the Developers are even working on it)

guys I've just updated to 13.1 and sync my all songs over itunes nothing's changed the problem still persist and really irritating me hope they get it solved. i dont know if anyone issued this to apple dev team. but 13.1 didnt help at all

iOS 13.1 did not fix the issue.

It's not a big deal until it is and at this point it's a big deal. You can no longer visually browse your music. Annoying.

Re-sync of the library doesn't help. Artwork is still randomly assigned.

Another problem is, until Apple resolves the issue, what's to say the next iOS update doesn't bugger the playlists up again?

It wouldn't be efficient to delete/restore playlists after every iOS update.

DO NOT DELETE YOUR MEDIA FOLDER. It holds ALL OF YOUR MEDIA, and if you delete it you can't then put it back on your phone, because IT'S DELETED. The media folder is not just what's on your phone, it's everything in your library, fullstop.

I just updated my iPhone 8 to 13.1. I have used iTunes on my Mac's for a very long time and have tons of music. I have created 60 or so playlists over the years. After the update the Playlist Icon doesn't match what the Playlist is. I nearly seems the icons are repeating in sequence. Luckily inside the tracks are what the name says. This is disheartening to say the least. Hey Apple, spend some time on this!

This happened to me too for my 7 plus and I cannot correct it. Also, not sure if related, but after the update my car radio can no longer track skip over a usb connection in playlists. It works in the main music library, so it may be related to this other weird album art cover. As it stands now I’d have better control over an AUX cable, if only I had the port...

Ok, you’re talking about that folder being in the Backup Synch folder along with a separate music synch folder? I know the last backup is always on your computer. I’ve seen the folder of Backup synchs. As far as deleting media I’ll wait. It’s corrupt on the phone update not the computer files. I have a new phone with only one playlist now. Apple support acted like I was the only one complaining about this when I brought it to their attention. They also said “oh, you don’t use the Cloud OR have Apple Music”. I’ll repopulate a few more playlists and see what happens before deleting anything yet. If Apple doesn’t address this issue then I’ll go through the alternatives.

Apple needs to fix this bug. I have around 90k songs in my library (a mix of iTunes purchases and music transferred from CD's) with playlist i've been curating for about 15 years or so. I simply cant erase and start over. I currently have around 21k on my iPhone XS, so even that would be an impractical chore to re-do. I hope there is a fix very soon.

Exactly. My new phone is currently holding just one playlist now. I have all my playlists from my iPhone 7 ready to synch though. We probably have around the same amount of music we put on our phones. I’ll wait till this is straightened out or add a few at a time and sees what happens. It’s an Apple issue. They know it’s happening and pretending it’s not so far. The biggest problem they are encountering with the new 11’s is the backup and new ios 13 not taking from Windows computers. Many new phones came with ios 12.4 on them. After Backup the “Swipe To Upgrade” prompt comes up. This step hangs and doesn’t complete on many phones. Similar to what happened when the X series was released.

I just realized that the issue I’m having might have been around for a while. I agree about the Apple Music too because I have so many songs I have collected over the years and if I want something different I listen to Sirius radio. It’s funny that my Playlist Icons, (which we have no way to change or apply) now change as I scroll the screen or repeat in sequence. This is saddening as a long time Apple user. (I know I might be in the wrong group since I don’t do Windows)

Same problem here...I can actually watch the playlist art changing before my eyes. One second things look ok then all of a sudden it will change. Playlists that had correct art would change after I opened the playlist...

I have about 17,000 tracks and own them. I either buy high res tracks or rip CD’s. Took me ages to organize my music. I once tried iMusic because it sounded interesting. It replaced all of my high bit rate tracks with low res MP3’s. Took me ages to undo the damage to my music. Never again. Now Apple continues to trash integrity of our owned music by releasing less than perfected

software. It’s easier to use Spotify along with my music library than to risk more damage. Also, IOS 13 and 13.1 are riddled with performance issues. I would happily go back to 12 if I could. Do not update unless you are a masochist looking for pain, frustration and aggravation.

Yeah, same problem here :(

Both on my iPad Pro (upgraded vom iOS 12 to iPadOS 13.1) and my new iPhone 11 Pro Max (obviously delivered with iOS 13... restored from Backup from my old iPhone 6S Plus).

Still happening on iOS (iPadOS) 13.1.1
