Apple Music Playlist Generator

An AI playlist maker built for Apple Music. Type what you want to hear and the playlist lands in your library.

PlaylistAI is an iOS app that generates Apple Music playlists with AI. Where Apple Music's own Playlist Playground stops at text prompts, PlaylistAI also starts from festival posters, TikTok videos, and your listening history: connect Apple Music on your iPhone, describe what you want to hear, and the playlist is created in your library. It works with Spotify, Amazon Music, and Deezer too.

How it works

  1. 1. Connect Apple Music

    Download PlaylistAI on your iPhone and grant it access to Apple Music.

    Switch services any time. PlaylistAI supports Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Deezer.

Apple Music playlist maker from a sentence

Apple Music only offers its prompt-based Playlist Playground on Apple Intelligence devices, so most subscribers do not get it. PlaylistAI fills the gap: connect Apple Music on your iPhone, describe the playlist in plain English, and the app picks the songs and saves the finished playlist to your Apple Music library.

Songs are added to your library

If playlist tracks keep showing up in your Apple Music library, that is an iOS setting, not something PlaylistAI controls. Turn off Settings > Music > Add Playlist Songs on your iPhone and songs will stay in the playlist only.

Prompts to try

Frequently asked questions

  • Does Apple Music have an AI playlist generator?

    Only partly. Apple's Playlist Playground turns text prompts into playlists, but only on devices that support Apple Intelligence, and it stops at text. PlaylistAI works on any iPhone with Apple Music and also builds playlists from festival posters, TikTok links, and your top tracks.

  • How do I make an AI playlist on Apple Music?

    Install PlaylistAI, connect Apple Music, and type a description of the playlist you want. The playlist is created in your Apple Music library within seconds. Apple's own Playlist Playground also exists on devices that support Apple Intelligence, but it is limited to text prompts.

  • Does Apple Music have an AI DJ?

    No. Apple Music has no DJ feature like Spotify's AI DJ. Its Playlist Playground builds playlists from prompts on Apple Intelligence devices, and PlaylistAI adds the things Playground does not do: festival posters, TikTok links, and playlists from your top tracks.

  • Apple Music playlist maker vs Apple Music's own suggestions

    Apple Music suggests playlists based on editors and algorithms tuned to broad tastes. PlaylistAI builds a playlist around your exact prompt, poster, or listening history, so the result matches what you asked for rather than a generic mix.

  • Is it free?

    PlaylistAI is free to download and try. An optional Pro upgrade unlocks unlimited playlists.

  • Why are songs being added to my library?

    That is an Apple Music setting. Turn off Settings > Music > Add Playlist Songs on your iPhone and playlist tracks will no longer be added to your library.

  • Does it work on Mac or Android?

    PlaylistAI is an iOS app and requires an iPhone with an Apple Music subscription. Playlists you create sync to Apple Music on your Mac and other devices.
