Apple Music smart playlist most played
This article explains how to make Smart Playlists in Apple Music or iTunes using sets of rules to create interesting and fun mixes. Information here applies to both iTunes and Apple Music. On the Mac, iTunes was replaced by Apple Music in 2019. On PCs, iTunes is still Apple's music-management software. You may want to create a Smart Playlist of songs that you rated five stars, played more than 50 times, or added to your library in the last 30 days. By setting up Smart Playlist rules, the music service automatically updates a playlist's songs when your music library changes. There are three options to create a Smart Playlist in Apple Music and iTunes: using the File menu, your mouse, or a keyboard shortcut. In Apple Music or iTunes, go to File, select New, then choose Smart Playlist. In Apple Music, right-click the Playlists header. In iTunes, right-click a blank area beneath the list of playlists. From the pop-up menu, select New Smart Playlist. Press Control+Alt+N (on Windows) or Option+Command+N (on a Mac).
You can only create Smart Playlists on a computer using Apple Music or iTunes. While Smart Playlists can be synced to your iOS device, you can't create a Smart Playlist on a device. Next, create the Smart Playlists rules to generate the exact set of songs you want. Select the criteria that determine which songs are added to your Smart Playlist now and in the future.
There are three ways to edit your Smart Playlist:s:

1. Launch iTunes, right-click on the Top 25 Most Played Smart Playlist on the left sidebar, and choose Edit Smart Playlist. If the sidebar is hidden, pressing Ctrl + S will reveal it. If you would like to keep the original list and make another one, click the plus button at the bottom of the sidebar, and choose New Smart Playlist. 2. In the edit window, you will see rules that will be used to filter the songs in your library. If you create a new Smart Playlist, you will need to add the rules manually. To filter the most played songs, the required rule is Plays + is greater than + a number. Setting the number to zero is fine because we will limit the number of tracks later. An additional rule you can add is Media Kind + is not + Podcast, which can be used to filter out podcasts from the list. Next, change the number in the Limit to X items field to the number of songs you want to include in the list, and set the selected by option to most often played. When you are done, click OK to save the changes. 3. Because you have changed the number of songs in the list, changing the name of the playlist is a good idea in order to avoid confusion. You can do so by clicking on the name of the playlist near the volume slider. 4. If you have an iPhone or iPod, connect it to your computer, and sync the new list to your device.
