Recently Added disappeared from Music

How do I get Recently Added back? I mistakenly deleted it when I thought I was deleting a song from it.

DInsley,


We appreciate that additional information. If you open the Music app on your iPhone and select the ‘Library’ tab, is there a Recently Added section there? Also, does music that you add on your Mac or iPad appear in the music library on your iPhone as expected?


If music syncs but this playlist still does not show only on your iPhone, then we would recommend reaching out to Apple Support to get the best assistance going forward.

 Hi there DInsley,


We understand that you are not seeing your recently added songs in the Music app. We’d like to help however we can. 


To confirm, are you using Apple Music or are you syncing this music onto your device another way? If you’re using Apple Music, do you see recently added songs when you add music to your library?

Add and download music from Apple Music


Also, are you able to sort your music by recently added using the ‘Sort your music’ section here?

Thanks!

Thanks. My Recently Added playlist in my Library is only missing from my iPhone. I use Apple Music and sync via iCloud with my MacBook Pro and my iPad Pro. The playlist is on the mac and iPad. But mostly I use Music on my iPhone. I can see everything I download via Music on the iPhone. It’s just not sorted in the Recently Added playlist because it doesn’t exist any longer on the iPhone Music Library.

Thanks.
