Q: ios10 - Hide/show purchased music

Ever since I updated to ios10 yesterday, my music list has been flooded with undownloaded purchases.

 

How do I hide these? I can't find the setting anymore. I have checked General>..., iTunes & App Store>..., Music>...

 

Where is the setting to hide purchases anymore???

 

Thanks for any help!

    That's absolutely correct.  This setting on prior versions of IOS kept another device that was connected to the iPhone from seeing the songs that were not really on the phone.  Not having this option breaks other devices or results in unexpected operation.  From what I've experienced, it either causes playback of the songs not on the iPhone to fail if there is no cellular data connectivity, or it actually plays the song from the cloud, resulting in unexpected data usage.

     

    This is a bug.  It is not an issue with the device connected to the iPhone, as that device is simply given a list of songs by IOS that it treats as playable.  The suggestions in the remainder of this thread about hiding purchases does not address this problem.  Apple needs to fix this and restore the ability to block the listing of songs that are not playable directly from the device.

    I think this is the best discussion of the problem. The USB car stereo becomes impossible to navigate - dangerous and distracting to use!
