Part 4. Why Does Apple Music Remove Downloads?

"Why did all my songs undownload on Apple Music?"

Some users have reported that Apple Music deletes all downloaded songs or keeps deleting downloads. There are several reasons for this. Check them out below.

1. Your Apple Music subscription has expired. If your subscription has expired or there is a problem with your account, all songs you downloaded will be deleted. This is because Apple Music is a subscription-based streaming music platform. You need to keep your subscription active to listen to Apple Music.

2. Your device has insufficient storage space. If your device is low on storage, Apple Music may automatically delete downloaded songs to optimize storage on your device.

3. The song's license has changed. Perhaps because the licensing agreement for these songs disappeared, they will be removed from Apple Music.

Part 5. How to Download and Back Apple Music without Limits
