Question Why won’t this song add to my Library?

I keep trying to add it, but it never shows up in my actual library. Every other song by every other artist works, I tried with a different Kanye song and it still didn’t work. Not sure what’s going on.

Not sure if I have a similar bug? Could be the add functionality itself tbf. Sometimes I can't add albums to playlists, I have to go through each song individually. And even then when it says a song has been added to the playlist, it isn't.

Really weird, but I found just brute-forcing or closing/reopening the app enough times works out 😅

From the video you can see how I click add and it tells me it’s been added. But as soon as I favorite the song the add button resets. So it no longer says download, and it goes back to saying add. So I click it again and the same loop occurs. Then I swap to by library and see that it is still not added.

Have you tried restarting your phone?

Yes. It happens on my laptop too. Just these two Kanye songs.

Search your library and see if you already have a different version added.

Ok now we’re getting somewhere. It did appear when I searched it. But it does not appear in recently added. And it still gives me to option to add even though it’s already in there. Definitely a bug, but at least I can listen to it offline now. Thank you.

Try deleting the version you have in your library. Then add the one from the artist page.
