Why are searches so difficult on Apple Music? I have, for instance, recently searched for a song I saved called “Mexican Chef” by Xenia Rubio. I can only play it by looking for it manually in the playlist I created. If I put in the exact title or the first or last name of the artist for a search, no results are found. This happens all the time, both with songs I’ve downloaded and those that I know are in the Apple library. What’s the problem?
iPhone 6, iOS 10
Hi StevesyOh,
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. To get started, does this issue occur with songs from a specific artist or album, or does it seem to occur randomly? Are these songs that you have added to your Apple Music Library, downloaded to play offline, or are these songs that are just included in a playlist?
Also, check out the steps listed in the following resource that may be able to help: Search for music on iPhone - Apple Support
We look forward to hearing back from you.
Take care!
