Siri says Apple Music can't play a playlist

This answer incorrect. Apple has still not fixed this issue. I have personally reported it twice. Very disappointing!

You are supposed to be able to access playlists in the app on your phone, but Siri has stopped doing that. I used to be able to just ask Siri to "shuffle playlist X", but now it says it can't do that on Apple Music, because I don't have a subscription. It's not accessing any of the music or playlists that I actually own and are on my phone, in the app. That's the issue everyone is complaining about. We just want to play our own music, but Siri is ignoring it and trying to access some cloud service.

It’s not just iOS - I have the same problem on an iMac. Siri appears not to be able to process ‘playlist’ on any device.

I have found that if I request Siri to play a playlist from my Apple Watch, it will play the playlist if I request it to play through my Apple mini or my iPhone, it will not and says Apple Music can't play that

The problem started with the recent OS update to 17.5 it was not fixed in the 17.5.1. OS Update unfortunately

The issue is within the last IOS code upgrade. That is what caused the issue of Siri not being able to play a playlist.

The problem started with 17.5 three or four days later they release 17.5.1 they still hadn't fixed it so I'm not understanding why you're saying what I said was incorrect. It was perfectly correct.

This issue has FINALLY been resolved with the IOS 17.6 Public release. Hallelujah!!

why is this answer incorrect the problem started with OS 17.5 they release 17.5.1 and they still didn't fix it so what's wrong with my response?

Even if you don't subscribe to Apple Music's streaming service, you can still access all the music you've purchased on the iTunes Store. This music is conveniently stored within the Apple Music app. Having the Apple Music app installed is essential to play your purchased songs, manage your library, and sync your music across your Apple devices.

My apologies on the typo. I meant to type This answer is correct.

Read my e-mail above. I stated your previous answer is correct. sheesh.
