Cover Art Not Assigned Correctly on iPhone after syncing from Mac
I am an iTunes Match subscriber and have been for many years. I have all of my own music. I am on MacOS 26.2 and iOS 26.2 I prefer to sync my music from my Mac to my iPhone because my playlists are curated for play counts and Last Played, as well as other criteria, and the iTunes Match and Apple Music cloud features don't support those very well. Recently, when syncing my music, the album art on my iPhone is getting scrambled. The art in the Apple Music app on my Mac is correct, but then the music gets synced and randomly assigns art to the wrong albums.
Even after I remove all music and then resync, it randomly assigns cover art to the wrong albums. It's not even consistent. It's a random assignment each time the music gets removed and readded to my phone.
This screenshot is from my Mac. You can see that the art is correct
This is from my iPhone. Both screenshots are from the Artist tab in the respective apps.
iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 26
