Apple Music Library

I seem to be getting albums and individual tunes placed in my Apple music library and not know why they are there, when I click on 'Recently added' I have a whole host of stuff i never added. Anyone have any ideas on this please?

iPhone SE, iOS 15

hootboot,


Do you add playlists to your Library? We ask as this could explain what you're seeing in Recently Added.


Let's use "Today's Hits" as a playlist example. If you have "Add Playlist Songs" enabled on your iPhone in Settings > Music, when that playlist is updated with the latest hits, your Recently Added is also updated: How to make a playlist in the Apple Music app - Apple Support


Cheers!

Hi hootboot,


Do you happen to share your Apple ID with anyone else, or does anyone else have access to your devices? This resource goes over the importance of not sharing an Apple ID: Make sure that each family member has a unique Apple ID.


If that's not what's happening here, reply with the answers to these questions:



Cheers.
