Why does my iPhone NOT COPY my iTunes correctly!?

[audirs5]

This has been going on for ****ing years and it's driving me INSANE. It WONT copy a playlist exactly how I have it on iTunes; what's even more frustrating is when I click on the iPhone tab within iTunes, and on there is SHOWS it's copied correctly, but then in my iPhone it's NOT..


Seriously, what is going on that this KEEPS happening?


Also, how can I go back to seeing smart playlist in the old layout where i can arrange by date added and stuff from the tabs on the top. Not this new "simplified" way.

What do you mean by not "copying exactly"? My playlist on iPhone always show exactly how iTunes shows. I mean, playlist on iPhone and on iTunes are identical.

Mine AREN'T.. Itunes shows songs in recently added order by date... Got o my phone, NOT like that. One song will be off.. Same playlist.

Yeah, that's a sync bug. I had it and couldn't get rid of it until I did a full reset.

One of many reasons why I went to Spotify and never looked back.

Hmm. This sounds weird. Likely a bug, because there are always a few songs missing in your side.

Regarding sort function, iOS 10.2 introduces features in music app allowing users to sort playlist by playlist title, playlist type or recently added.
