How to rename an Apple Music playlist on iPhone

How can I rename an Apple Music playlist on my iPhone? I can edit, reorder, add, delete, etc., but not rename. I no longer have the computer I used to make it and want to change it with my iPhone, but how? Double click or long press on the name do nothing and Haptic Touch menus have no rename option either, so how?

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Hi amolatinam,


We understand you'd like to rename a playlist. We're happy to help.


To change a playlist name open the Music app, then in the Library tab pull up the playlist you'd like to edit. Once you have the playlist on the screen, tap the menu button at the top right then select Edit. Once you've selected Edit, just tap on the current playlist name at the top under the artwork to bring up the keyboard, and you can change the name. When you're finished, just select Done at the top right.
