How do I remove songs from a playlist

On Apple Music on IPhone, I’m struggling with how to remove a song from a playlist without actually removing it from my library. It doesn’t seem possible.

Does anyone know how to do this simple task?

See the "Edit a playlist you created on iPhone" section in:

Create playlists on iPhone - Apple Support

Delete a song: Tap , then tap Delete. Deleting a song from a playlist doesn’t delete it from your library.
