Apple Music Reset Preferences

Everyday when I go to look at my apple music suggestion it’s the same playlists. I recently got a new phone and have been trying to update my music preferences, but when I go to my profile I’m Apple Music the button for “choose artists for me” is not there. I have signed out and signed back on. Nothing is working though

Hello caitlin,

Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand you want to edit your music preferences. I can help with this. Apple Music uses your likes and dislikes to suggest music for you in the For You section of the app.

Personalize Apple Music - Apple Support


The For You section of Apple Music is where you'll find personalized music recommendations and mixes created just for you. The recommendations and songs in the mixes are influenced by:

  • The music that you listen to from the Apple Music catalog.
  • What you love or dislike.
  • The genre and artist choices that you made when you first joined Apple Music.

Tell us what you love or dislike

While listening to Apple Music, you can love and dislike music to refine your recommendations:

  • On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: While listening to a song, tap the player at the bottom of the screen to open the Now Playing screen. Tap User uploaded file, then choose User uploaded file Love or User uploaded file Dislike.
  • On your Mac or PC: Hold your pointer over the song name at the top of iTunes, then click User uploaded file and choose Love or Dislike.
  • On your Android device: While listening to a song, tap the player at the bottom of the screen to open the Now Playing screen. Tap User uploaded file, then choose User uploaded file Love or User uploaded file Dislike.

If you change your mind, you can change your selection. On your iOS device or Android device, tap User uploaded file Love or User uploaded file Dislike again to clear it. On your Mac or PC, choose Loved or Disliked to clear it.

You can also say "Hey Siri" and tell Siri if you love or dislike a song.

Listen to mixes

In For You, you'll see up to four different mixes that refresh weekly: Chill Mix, Favorites Mix, Friends Mix, and New Music Mix. You won’t see any mixes until you've used Apple Music for a while so that we can understand your taste. To access the Friends Mix, you need to set up sharing and have Apple Music Friends.

If you add any and download any of the mixes to your library, the refreshed songs will automatically download to your device each week.




Take care.
