How does a family member play one of my shared playlists on their device? I have Apple One and have turned on family sharing, but nothing has changed.

I have Apple One, and I have turned on family sharing and my family member has been invited and accepted. I am trying to play one of my shared playlists on her device, but I cannot find any way to even see the shared music or play it. How can I do this?

iPhone 11 Pro Max

Okay; that Apple One Premier should allow access to Apple Music.


There isn’t a Family Sharing playlist option, oddly enough. You have to Share the specific playlists to the person using Messages or Mail or such, or use the global playlist sharing; a public playlist.


It is odd that that there isn’t better sharing in Apple Music. Something akin to how Photos can set up shared albums.
