Smart Playlists not synching between iTunes on my PC and Apple Music on my Android phone
I recently switched to a phone plan that includes an Apple Music subscription, so I thought I'd try it out in the hope that I could start leaving my iPod at home and just use my phone(Pixel 4XL) for my music in the car. I got the subscription set up, went into iTunes on my Windows laptop and had it sync my library into the cloud. After it was done, I noticed that the regular playlists from my iTunes library show up fine in Apple Music, but the smart playlists are very hit or miss. Some look fine, some are empty. These smart playlists have very simple rules, most are just a combination of the artist name and a minimum rating(i.e. the songs I like most for a particular artist). There doesn't seem to be any consistency in terms of whether the music was purchased on iTunes or imported from .mp3's I ripped from my CD collection. All of my software is up to date(iTunes, Androd, the Apple Music app), and I've tried re-synching, enabling/disabling the Live Update option for the playlist, deleting it an recreating it, but it doesn't work. Doing a search for answers suggests that Apple Music has had a problem importing Smart Playlists for a long time. Can anyone help?
