When I add a song to my playlist I go into that playlist and all new downloads go directly to the bottom of my music and I want it to automatically sort it alphabetically . So I'm trying to sort my music in the individual playlists. I know you can manually move them but it gets annoying having to move every song I download. It used to automatically sort the music in playlists alphabetically...

Hello Farmerjoe96,

Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Community. I understand you are trying to view your playlists alphabetically and I have some info that may help.

When you open the Music app and select the Playlist option, at the upper right corner is a “Sort” button. Tap that and it will give you the option to sort by Playlist Type, Title, or by Recently Added.

Likewise, if you select your Songs list, you can tap the “Sort” button and sort by Title or by Artist.

If you run into any trouble, please feel free to reach out again.
Best Regards.
