Delay between iTunes Store purchase and Music app on iOS

I have the same issue, except in my case I find the music can take one or two days to finalize. It often sits as "pending" in purchases overnight. I use the Moises music app and have to buy the music to load it into Moises. I have all kinds of issues with when the music actually shows up, and when it actually becomes available to use in Moises. I'm buying the music from Apple to use on my Apple devices, nowhere else, so why on earth does it take so long to have the music fully available in the Music app?

There's some serious discombobulation here Apple! This should have been fixed long ago.

Ok Apple, where is the solution?

Same issue. I purchase and then have to wait hours to have the music show up in my library.

Same problem here and already since weeks…. Apple please help, as I already think about changing to Spotify… this is very much frustrating….. 🤔

Hello - same situation here. Few extra points :

• purchases made in the phone are not immediately available in the music app…(just like you)
• those same purchases, on the other hand, are IMMEDIATELY downloaded into my Mac….

also

• using Apple Card… and
• with a Apple Music subscription active…

noted that if you log off the music app and back on purchase becomes visible.

iphone 12 here - i just made a bunch of purchases on itunes that did not show up for about a day on my iphone music app. Bought more songs the next day and happened again.

i immediately went to settings>music>turned off sync library

my songs were there when I went back to my app / showed up immediately.

Same thing and sometimes my purchased music took a day to be reflected in my library. I have this issue around 4 months ago and still happen its very frustrating. I hope someone can help us !!!

Same issue here still it’s been happening for a couple months now.

Exactly the issues and frustrations expressed here by others. And it was also about 4 months ago it started to happen. I used to have instant access to the music I purchased.

Yup!

Still an annoying issue, Apple

Same problem. Wish someone would do something about this. Apple store, Apple music app, Apple phone. You’d think it would all integrate seamlessly since it’s the default apps on the device, all with the same account. But I purchase something and it takes at least a full day to appear in my itunes library. So annoying. Makes me want to use a different service. I don’t buy an album because I want to listen tomorrow. I want to listen on this road trip starting now!

I have the same issue and it usually takes up to 1-2 days for my purchases songs to show up in my library. Been happy for several months, but I can find no fix. It’s really annoying, because I usually want to listen to the song right after I buy it. We need a fix for this ASAP!

Cmon Apple! This is unsat for a corporation that is so advanced! This issue has been going on much longer than this thread is old. And why haven’t you at Apple chiming on this thread and at least given us a potential fix or some type of resolution? There is absolutely no excuse for not responding back to the consumer when they have issues or questions!

Me too. I thought was just me but 2 years now and apple doesn’t respond?
