Hey,

either I'm stupid or Apple is!

When I like a song, I just add it to my library. How is it possible to play just the recently added music?
In Spotify it was so easy! Besides, I could save my library music really easily and in Apple Music I cannot?

I've made a smart playlist where all new songs get added. It's sorts it with newest at the top. If I could just sort the songs sections I wouldn't have to do this as this is how I did on spotify. But I actually really like the smart playlists. I've made some pretty good ones. Sadly you can't make them on your phone and have to make them on iTunes.

Can you tell me what exactly I have to set up?
Maybe you can take a picture of your playlist setting or just explain? Thanks! :)

Instead of having a date range. Change the first string to media type - is - music and then check limit to - (how many songs you want) - most recently added.

I just did a quick test to see if it worked and why I said try something like.;) Since the OP is wanting :apple:Music here is another one (last 100 :apple:Music tracks) that would work. You do have to type in Apple Music AAC audio file.

Yeah that would be better if you also have non Apple Music stored on your mac. Didn't think about that since I only use Apple Music.
