How to Turn Off iCloud Music Library

If you’re an Apple Music subscriber and have iCloud Music Library turned on, your Apple Music content and playlists appear in your iCloud Music Library. iCloud Music Library is a feature of Apple Music and iTunes Match that allows you to access all of your content from any of your devices, as long as they’re signed in to the same Apple ID and have iCloud Music Library turned on.

However, if you’re having issues with your music library, or just want to turn off iCloud Music Library, it’s easy to do. Here’s how to turn off iCloud Music Library.

Step 1: Open the Music App

The first step is to open the Music app on your device. You can find it in the list of apps on your Home screen. If you’re using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you can also open the Music app by tapping the Music icon in the Control Center.

Step 2: Tap the Profile Icon

Once the Music app is open, you’ll need to tap the Profile icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. This will open the account settings.

Step 3: Tap iCloud Music Library

In the account settings, you’ll see an option for iCloud Music Library. Tap the button to turn it off.

Step 4: Confirm Your Selection

When you turn off iCloud Music Library, you’ll be asked to confirm your selection. Tap the “Confirm” button and iCloud Music Library will be disabled.

Step 5: Disconnect Your Device from iCloud

The last step is to disconnect your device from iCloud. To do this, open the Settings app and tap “iCloud.” Then, tap “Sign Out” to disconnect your device from iCloud. If you’re using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you’ll need to enter your Apple ID password to confirm the sign-out.

Once you’ve completed these steps, iCloud Music Library will be disabled and all of your music will be stored locally on your device. You’ll still be able to access your music library, but it won’t be synced across devices.

If you decide you want to re-enable iCloud Music Library, you can do so by following the same steps. Just make sure you’re signed in to the same Apple ID and have iCloud Music Library turned on. Then, your music library will be synced across devices.
