Looking to exercise some control over who can see what's on your Apple Music profile? Here's how to make it more private.
Apple Music debuted a new set of social features alongside the launch of iOS 11, which allow you to more easily share the music you love with other Apple Music users. When you first set up your profile, maybe you decided to share everything with anyone who wanted to follow you, but now some time has passed and you've grown a bit more selective. Apple Music has a couple of options for making your account more private.
Here's how you control the privacy of your Apple Music account.
