Are you tired of worrying about your kids stumbling upon explicit content while listening to music on Apple Music? Well, worry no more! We have the perfect solution for you. With this simple shortcut, you can easily create a kid-friendly version of your explicit playlists, ensuring that your little ones only listen to age-appropriate songs.
Create a Filtered Playlist
The first step is to create a new playlist specifically for your children. Open the Apple Music app and navigate to the “Playlists” tab. Tap on the “+” button and give your playlist an appropriate name like “Kid-Friendly Songs.”
Next, go back to your library and find the explicit playlist that you want to filter. Press and hold on it until a menu appears, then select “Add Songs.” Choose all the songs from the explicit playlist and add them to your newly created kid-friendly playlist.
Now comes the fun part – filtering out any inappropriate content! Open up your new kid-friendly playlist and tap on the three-dot menu icon at the top-right corner. From there, select “Edit Playlist.”
In edit mode, scroll through each song in your list and look for any tracks with explicit lyrics or themes that may not be suitable for young ears. To remove these songs from the playlist, simply swipe left on each track’s title and hit delete.
Add Parental Controls
To ensure that only this filtered playlist is accessible by your children when using Apple Music, we recommend setting up parental controls on their devices.
If they are using an iPhone or iPad with iOS 12 or later versions, go into Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases. Tap on “Music & Podcasts” and select “Clean” under the Explicit section.
For Mac users, open System Preferences > Screen Time > Content & Privacy. Click on the “Apps” tab and check the box next to Apple Music. Then, click on “Options” and choose “Clean” for explicit content.
Enjoy Peace of Mind
Now that you have created a family-friendly version of your explicit Apple Music playlists and set up parental controls, you can relax knowing that your children will only be listening to age-appropriate songs. This shortcut provides an easy way to filter out any explicit content, ensuring a safe music experience for your little ones.
In Conclusion
With this simple method, you can transform your explicit Apple Music playlists into kid-friendly versions effortlessly. By creating a filtered playlist and setting up parental controls, you can enjoy peace of mind while allowing your children to explore their musical interests without stumbling upon inappropriate content. So go ahead and give it a try – it’s time to create a safe space for your kids’ musical journey!
