See what your friends are listening to

When you’re an Apple Music subscriber, you can see music your friends are listening to by following them. You can also see the playlists they’ve shared. Likewise, your followers can see your shared playlists and the music you’re listening to. You see this information on your profile screen in the Music app .

Note: Not all features are available in the Apple Music Voice Plan. For more information, see the Apple Support article About Apple Music Voice.

Follow your friends

There are several ways to follow people:

Add friends when you set up your profile.
After you set up your profile, swipe to the bottom of the profile screen, tap Follow More Friends, then tap Follow next to those you want to follow.
You can follow friends who are in your contacts list and who use Apple Music.
On the profile screen, touch and hold a profile picture, then tap Follow.
Tap Search, enter a friend’s name, tap it in the results, then tap Follow.
Note: Your friends must have a profile for you to find them using search.

To see the people you’re following and those who follow you, open the profile screen, then swipe up.

If a profile picture has a lock on it, you need to ask that person to follow them. After your request is accepted, you see the person’s shared playlists and the music they’re listening to.

Respond to follow requests

You can allow everyone to follow you, or just people you choose. You receive follow requests only if you choose who can follow you.

Tap Listen Now in the sidebar, then tap or your profile picture.
Tap View Profile.
Tap Edit, then tap People You Approve if you want to be followed only by people you choose.
Tap Follow Requests, then accept or decline the requests.

Stop following and block followers

Stop following: Touch and hold the profile picture of a person you follow, then tap Unfollow.

Tap Listen Now in the sidebar, then tap or your profile picture.

Your followers will see the playlists you create on your profile unless you turn off those playlists you don’t want to share. You can turn off this option when you create a playlist or later, when you edit the playlist.

To share playlists with people who don’t follow you, touch and hold a playlist, then tap Share Playlist.
