Can’t create Apple music profile

I can’t create an apple music profile. When i click on the profile icon the only options are Notifs, Redeem gift card, Apple music tv web player, and settings. I have all the correct settings turned on, i’m 18+, i don’t have any family restrictions, so i don’t know why i can’t create a profile. I’ve restarted my phone, my phone is up to date, i’ve reinstalled, i’m not sure what’s left to try. I’m also unable to view my friends profiles either.

iPhone XS, iOS 16

You may want to check that your Phone is updated to the newest compatible iOS version:

ie: to check if an update is waiting for installation: Check : Settings > General > Software update.

or

If already updated to the newest compatible iOS version: try re-starting your iPhone (deletes temporary files, re-establishes connections, and often restores order if something is not working as expected):

See how to: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support
