How do I rename a playlist in Apple Music?

Can someone please tell me how to rename a playlist in Apple Music? It used to be as simple as clicking on the name of the playlist itself, but now they've changed that.

A previous discussion I found on this subject offered a couple of solutions, neither of which worked.

Please help?

Thank in advance,

Rick

P.S. Dear Apple, PLEASE STOP fixing and overcomplicating things that are already working fine and are ALREADY intuitive! It's not like you don't have enough ACTUAL issues you need to address! :-D
