Tips

Did you mark “Love” on a song in Apple Music for iPhone and want to find it? The Love button (designated with a heart icon) on Apple Music lets you tell the app that you want to hear more music like the song you loved. Even though Apple Music doesn’t save a list of your loved songs, you can easily sort music saved to your Library by “Loved” on Apple Music for Mac or iTunes for Windows. Once you find your Loved songs, you can easily add them to a playlist so they'll be easy to find on your iPhone. This wikiHow shows you how to find Loved songs on Apple Music on your computer and add them to a Smart Playlist that you can view on your iPhone.

Things You Should Know

There is no way to see Loved songs in Apple Music on an iPhone unless you add them to a playlist from your computer.
A Smart Playlist will automatically add all of your Loved songs to a playlist that's accessible everywhere you use Apple Music.
To view Loved songs in Apple Music on your computer, click Songs under Library in the sidebar, then click the heart icon.

Open the Apple Music app on your Mac or iTunes on Windows.
