On iOS 9, there was an option called "Show All Music" that show/hide purchased music.

Where is the option on iOS 10? I am trying to prevent my car from playing music when my phone is plugged into my car.
 
- In the Music App tap on the Library button at the bottom of the screen.
- One of the listed options should be Downloaded Music.

You may have to scroll slightly to get to it.

Is that what you were looking for?

I've toggled "Downloaded Music" from "Edit" several times but it doesn't show up under Library. Even tried restarting the phone several times.

More mysteriously, it somehow downloaded the first alphabetical song "All At Sea" and I cannot remove it from the device at all.

Hmm, I'm not sure then. It seems to be working as intended on mine. I've got a 6S and the way to remove music once downloaded is to force click on it, the click remove from the popover menu.

You might try downloading another track to see if that kickstarts it again?

Thanks, that made "Downloaded Music" to show up. Nevertheless, it still insists on showing "purchased" playlist with all the "un-downloaded" music. I guess it's a bug? I will report it. Perhaps it's fixed on beta 6 that my phone is downloading right how.
 
I've just downloaded the latest beta too. The Downloaded Music section only shows downloaded music for me, including the playlists, which are also limited to tracks that are only on the phone.

This playlist shows all music you have purchased based on your current store region. It is there for quite a while. But whether it needs to be downloaded music only or not is not what I noticed before.
Maybe a bug, maybe not.
