Inability to share playlist created in Apple Music

I created a playlist in apple music from only songs added from apple music. I tried sharing the playlist via my iPhone, but don't even have the option to when click on the three dots. I've shared numerous playlists previously. When I try to share previous playlists the option to share is still available. I tried creating a second playlist today and the option to share was not available again. Why is this all of a sudden happening?

I found the answer!!! This fixed the missing share button for me. It has something to do with the version iOS you created the playlist on and the current iOS. To fix:


-Create a new play list and name it whatever you want (it could be the same name of the list you are about to import).

-Go to the playlist you want to share, tap the three dots, select Add to Playlist.

-Select the NEW play list you just made.


All of the songs from your old playlist will be imported to the new playlist and the share button will be there.


I delete the old playlist to stay neat.


I hope this helps.
