Add playlist songs to library keeps turning on

Hi! So I have a problem with my Apple Music settings. I keep turning off ‘Add Playlist Song’ option in my settings, and add music to my playlists but it seems to me automatically turning on about 45 seconds later no matter how many times I go back and turn it off and adding all the songs to my library. Is there any way to fix this issue?

it’s literally so annoying and it’s driving me insane. my library is full of multiple albums and songs. when i delete the stuff from my library, if i add another song to an album it comes back, otherwise, it deletes the whole song or album from my playlist 😐

Yes, mine is doing the exact same thing. It started off as being added to a playlist and library together, but now it’s not even showing up in my playlist at all, and only in my library. I’ve tried turning the setting off, but every time I open the app after I fix the setting it magically ends up back in my library 🙄 The update is the only thing that’s changed on my phone, and I’m sure it’s a bug that apple will take forever to fix like usual

I’ve lost about 20 songs off my playlist from this bug because I deleted them from my library not knowing that it would delete from my playlist too. So now I have no idea how to fix it and get them back.


Edit: I was on a 4 hour road trip and ended up listening to 2000’s throwbacks through smart shuffle. Every time a song came on that I recognized, I added it to my playlist. I got all the way to my destination before I realized that they were adding to my library too. So I deleted them from my library thinking that they’d stay in my playlist 🤦🏼‍♀️ Now I have no way of adding them again since I can’t remember most of them
