Playlists and songs disappeared after iOS 16.4 upgrade on iPhone 13 mini

Very annoyed by the fact that I had probably 30 playlists and over 3000 songs on my phone before upgrading to 16.4. Now it says I have 289 songs and no playlists. Having to rebuild the library on the phone and all the playlists is making me sick to think of all that work down the drain. Why Apple, why????

Songs have disappeared from playlists since updating to iOS18.2 I updated to 18.2 on my iphone 15 pro. After updating i now have an issue where I have lost alot of my apple music playlists (but not all of them), and those playlist that havent disappeared are empty and have no songs in them. Looking at my iphone storage all the downloaded music has also disappeared. Is there anyway to recover my playlists?!

Add Playlist Songs to Library "Add Playlist Songs" keeps turning on in apple music settings. I’m unable to add songs to my playlist without them adding to my library. I refuse to have a crowded library. I make monthly playlists, and look forward to them. This absolutely crushed me lol. Hope this bug gets fixed. - iPhone 15 Pro Max user

Same here. I upgraded my ipad to 16.4 and now songs from playlists disappeared randomly and synced all my devices even the ones still on 16.3.1
