Where has “recently played” in Apple Music gone?

So, I just recently installed Apple Music for the 1st time in a while. And I also don't have a Recently Played playlist. Was this feature retired for some ungodly reason?

chevgr,

Thanks for letting us know. Next, have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Music app to see if that has a positive impact on the issue that you're experiencing? If not, please give that step a try and let us know the outcome. Also, please keep in mind that deleting and reinstalling the Music app on your device will require you having to redownload your music.

chevgr, 

Thanks for getting back to us with those additional details. When you have a chance, head over to the “Library” section within the Music app, then tap on “Playlists,” which is the first option under Library. In the Playlists menu, scroll down until you find the “Recently Played” playlist and tap on it. Here, you’ll see all the songs you’ve recently listened to on your device using Apple Music.
