Apple Music lets you add songs to playlists without your library, Spotify blocks new releases for free users

iOS 27 adds two Apple Music toggles so playlist and favorite songs no longer flood your library. Spotify is testing a restriction in India and Bangladesh that blocks free-tier listeners from hearing new releases for their first three days.

• Apple Music: two new toggles in Settings, off by default
• Playlist and favorite tracks no longer added to your library
• Spotify: new releases locked for free users for 3 days
• Test runs in India and Bangladesh for now
