I created a playlist in Apple Music on my iPhone and am unable to share with another iPhone user. My cellular data is on. When I tap the pink ellipse button where the "share" option would be, it isn't there.
My only options when clicking on that button are remove, add to playlist, and play next.
I am not an Apple Music member, does that matter?
Any help is appreciated, thank you!!
iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 10.3.2
Go to settings>music and turn on the iCloud music library. That will enable you to share playlists directly from the Music App.
The first "Apple Music" would be referring to the "Music" APP itself (at least for me). The second would be the paid membership to "Apple Music" which I also do not subscribe
They are not the same thing at all.
The app on an iPhone that plays music is simply called Music or the Music app. The paid subscription service that allows access to the Apple music catalog is called Apple Music.
The Music app can play music from an iTunes purchase, from your historical CD library on a PC/Mac or if you subscribe, Apple Music. Or any combination thereof.
Are you saying it is only possible to share a playlist if you are an Apple Music subscriber?
Yes.
This would be be why you are not seeing the option. Google the phrase "apple share playlist" and every hit will reference Apple Music.

They do not necessarily contradict each other. I am experiencing the exact same issue. The first "Apple Music" would be referring to the "Music" APP itself (at least for me). The second would be the paid membership to "Apple Music" which I also do not subscribe to.
All instructions I've found for sharing a playlist with another user is to:
That step 5 is completely missing from all of my playlists. They are not "smart" playlists, just normal playlists. I have some created in iTunes on my computer and synced to my iPhone. I have others that I created on the iPhone itself by adding music that is only on my iPhone.
The only options I see from the elipsis are:

contradicts this.
If you created a playlist using the "Music" app and are not a paid subscriber to "Apple Music", then that makes sense.
They are 2 separate things and would be why you can't share your playlist.
Hi I'm having the exact same issue however I am an Apple Music subscriber. Do you have any suggestions?
Why can't I share a playlist on Apple Music?
