Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Is there a way to download my iTunes Match music to my iPhone - in bulk - not one by one so I can listen offline?
It synchs to my iPhone - but can't access it when in the air.
iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 13
There should be an additional cloud icon at the top of an album or a playlist. Use those to download all of that object at once. You can create a smart playlist with the rule location is in the cloud, which should sync to your device over the air and can then be used. More sensible might be to limit it to say 30 or 100 tracks, so you can initiate a chunks of downloads, and then grab another when the first is complete.

You should be able to download all of an album or a playlist with a single tap. Whether or not all of that download completes might be another matter though, depending on wi-fi capacity and what else you do with the device while it is processing the download queue.

Thanks for your reply, and I agree with the concept of “should be able to”.
But “how” is my question...
There should be a cloud icon you can tap to start the download of anything that is stored in the cloud. Do you not see those on your phone when selecting albums or playlists?

Yes there’s a cloud icon next to each song - and I have 3000 songs. The question is how to select them all at once.
