Will playlists get lost when I change from personal subscription to family sharing?

Hello,


I want to change my Apple Music Account from single to family sharing.

My question is: will I or the other family members lose their existing Apple Music Playlists when I added them to the family account?


Thank you and kind regards


Kevin

You and other family members will still retain your music library as long as you do not cancel your individual subscriptions first. See the footnote in the 'First, set up Family Sharing' section of:

Get an Apple Music family subscription - Apple Support

"If someone in the family group already has an individual or student subscription to Apple Music, renewal of that subscription is automatically canceled when they join the family group."
