How to disable explicit content on Apple Music

I want to disable Apple Music from playing any explicit content on my iphone, but I cannot find these settings anywhere on my iPhone which is running the latest iOS.


I found only directions on Apple Support for blocking explicit content on ANDROID devices or on a PC, but the screenshots of those setting menus are not showing those options found on the latest iPhone iOS.

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14

Thank you. This answers my question, but the setting has no impact and Apple Music is still paying explicit content on my phone. Spotify did a better job of filtering out explicit content and that’s KEY for me as a middle school teacher who likes to play background music in the classroom occasionally.


For those annoyed by answers with links to pages of reading, here is a more direct answer to to navigate to change your own phone settings:


  1. Settings
  2. Screen Time
  3. Content & Privacy Restrictions
  • Turn on Content Privacy Restrictions toggle switch

4. Content Restrictions

5. Music, Podcasts, News, & Workouts

  • switch to “Clean” check mark
