Alarm can't play the songs with the Lossless label from Apple Music

Not only my iPhone but also my iPad can't play the music with the Lossless label in the Alarm. If I set the music without the Lossless label, the alarm can go off.

Hi there,


i have found a temporary fix for those still wanting to get up to your favourite tune :)


  1. Go to Apple Music
  2. Go to the song that you used to wake up to
  3. Remove download
  4. Go to Settings/Music/Audio Quality/Downloads and change from Lossless or High Res Lossless to High Quality
  5. Just to make sure step: Close Apple Music and then reopen
  6. Go to Apple Music
  7. Go to your song
  8. Download
  9. Go back to Settings/Music/Audio Quality/Downloads and change to lossless or high res so that the next song you download uou have in high res
  10. set up alarm to test.


mine works now. As I have said, it’s temporary because I hope Apple makes Alarm play high res. If not, I usually skip the alarm song anyway :))) Once a day is enough for Shawn Mendez and Camilla :))))


Cheers!
