Apple music friends and social profile

As I see that on iPhone when I go to “listen now” in the apple music app then click on my photo, I would be able to see different options for that social profile. But nothing is there except some subscription and gift card options.


I can not add any friends due to that, but somehow they could add me. But even though I still can’t reach their profiles, all I get is a notification says that someone added you. When I click on that notification a white page appears on the app which is annoying.


How can I make the friends options available in my profile or at least hide my own profile because it is out there for everyone to see what I am listening to without me being in control of.


iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14

Hi atta_rajab,


As we understand it, you're receiving notifications of new followers to your Apple Music profile, however you're unable to access your profile in the Apple Music app.


To get started, the option to share music with friends is not available in the following countries: Cameroon, China mainland, Malawi, Mali, Russia, Turkey, and Uruguay.


If you are not located in one of those countries but are still unable to access your profile, we'd recommend signing out under Settings > [your name] > Media & Purchases, then sign back in. Bear in mind signing out will remove music saved for offline listening from your device.


After signing back in, go back to Music > Listen Now and tap on your profile icon and see if the option is available at that point. If it is not, let us know the following:

  • Do you have any restrictions enabled under Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions?
  • Are there any profiles enabled under Settings > General > Profiles & Device Management


Feel free to reply to this post and we'll follow up from there.


Cheers!
