Did Apple Music just get hacked?

Answer: No, but it does seem that way.

If you are among the Apple Music users who are concerned you may have been hacked, you’re not alone. Fortunately, it looks like a hack is not the culprit.

Many users of Apple’s music streaming service recently started reporting that they were seeing playlists that were not theirs in their libraries. One user shared on Reddit a screenshot of a playlist titled “Spanish” that was added to their library without their approval. Others are reporting that songs have been added to or deleted from their libraries without their knowledge.

While Apple had yet to respond to questions from news outlets as of Wednesday morning, MacRumors suggested that the issue may be a simple bug in the iCloud server. No macOS users were reporting any problems, so the issue seems to be contained to iPhones using the Apple Music app.
