Maybe you prefer to always stream your music, but as an Apple Music subscriber it is also possible to save albums, playlists and songs locally on your iPhone or iPad.
From the Music application you have the option to delete all downloaded music, one by one for all songs, albums and playlists. But with the help of a handy trick you can also delete all offline music from your iPhone or iPad in one go.
Delete all offline music at once
- Open ‘Settings’
- Tap ‘Apps’ and go to ‘Music’
- Scroll down to ‘Downloads’
- Open the ‘Downloaded Music’ menu option
You will then get an overview of all artists saved offline on your iPhone or iPad. At the top you will find the ‘All songs’ option. Swipe this option with one finger from right to left to activate the delete button. Tap Delete to delete all the music at once. In addition, you can also use the ‘Edit’ button to activate the delete option.
Of course, you can also swipe from right to left over the artists to delete just them. You can also apply this when you have opened an artist; then you can delete the albums.
