Download music in Apple Music

Downloading songs, albums and playlists is simple with Apple Music. The feature is only available in the paid version of the app, so make sure you have a subscription. You must first add a song, album, or playlist to your library. Then you can download different songs in Apple Music. It goes like this:

Downloading songs in Apple Music is slightly different than saving a playlist or album. Once you have downloaded a title, you will find an overview of all saved songs, playlists and albums under ‘Library > Downloaded’. There you will see an extensive list of your downloaded music. This way you can even see which music you have saved per artist, genre and composer.

Do you want to delete downloaded music again? That is also easy. To do this, go back to the title you saved, tap the three dots and choose ‘Delete’. The song, album or playlist will then be deleted immediately. It is advisable to do this once in a while for music that you hardly listen to, because this way you can save a lot of storage space.

Apple Music: that’s how much you pay for a subscription

In the settings of your iPhone or iPad you can also see which titles you have downloaded from Apple Music. To do this, go to ‘Settings > Music > Downloaded music’. This way you can see at a glance which music you have stored on your device. You can then delete it via ‘Edit > tap the minus sign > Delete’. This way you can easily keep an overview of all downloaded songs in Apple Music.
