Purchased Playlist Mac+iOS

[samduffy]

Just out of curiosity is anybody noticing on the iPhone iPad under playlists section theres a playlist called purchased Music is in a different sort order to the macs purchased playlist e.g. for me the purchased playlist is in alphabetical order on the iPhone its a mixed order just curious is anyone else experiencing this? as you can see same amount of songs but different order fore example look at the first songs in each playlist they each start with a different amount

Thanks

I deleted that playlist the second I saw it.
I don't see the added value of it for me.

As for the difference in order, there is no explanation. It could be in order of purchase date maybe on the phone and whatever sort order you have selected on the Mac.

I use it a lot on both devices so it's annoying for it to be in 2 different orders

can anyone else other that Tartarus make an opinion anyone else experiencing this issue

I rarely use iTunes on my Mac. That being said, it doesn't really bother me that purchased music is in different orders. I'm sure the order on iPhone has something to do with it being a mobile device and Apple is somehow prioritizing our music.

Sorry Tartarus just wanted another opinion is all can u check is yours the same or in different orders

I don't have a purchased playlist. Deleted it the second I saw it. I have enough playlists as is.

I don't feel offended very much so you're good

My playlists are all by default sorted by artist > album >song titles

I.e.

Cool thanks

With 9k songs I have shuffle enabled anyway. Depending on my mood I sometimes play songs from one album or one artist or a playlist. I even have playlists sorted in centuries, in genre and a playlist with all my 'loved' songs.

Ps: I'm on iOS 10, that's why the interface looks a little different than what you probably have.

Cool I was just curious to know why for me it's sorted differently is all. Yeah I was thinking that lol
