Playlist time length no longer showing up on Apple Music on MacBook.

Is there a way to request that Apple add back the total time per playlist in itunes on my MacBook??!! As a fitness instructors that uses Apple Music, I now manually calculate the time by adding the song length together - the feature of showing the time of the playlist was very useful. I'm sure that there are others that also miss this feature. We change our lists constantly and now have no idea if we will run over our time per class without adding manually - this creates issues since the gym is scheduled for many classes and we need time to switch out our instructors and students. As well as Zoom classes. I checked the settings and I could not find how to add it back in.

MacBook, OS X 10.11

Same here - fitness instructor and I thought something was wrong with my Apple Music at first.


If you highlight all the songs in your playlist you want added together (and have the status bar feature turned on in the VIEW drop-down menu) - you can see the total length at the bottom of your screen. I attached a screenshot.

I could not agree more!! I'm putting together three classes for tomorrow. Two playlists are 45 minutes, and one is an hour. I loved that I could just pull up my playlist and see exactly how long each is. Now I have to add the times of each song individually. I can't imagine that that feature was removed, so I am hoping there is a simple click of a button to add it back in! Please advise!
