As of iOS 15, Siri no longer allows you to rate songs in the Music app. Previously, while playing a song, you could ask the assistant ” mets [tant d’] stars to this song “. Unfortunately, this is no longer possible, without really knowing why.
Testimonials on Reddit and the forums d’assistance Apple confirms that Siri has lost this ability to grade songs. iOS 15.1, iOS 15.2 or the beta of iOS 15.3 do not change this. Is this really a bug or is Apple’s desire to reduce the surface of this ranking?
It is in any case always possible to rate a song on iOS, by touching the button big bazaar options ﹒﹒﹒ (if this is not done, first go to the settings Music to activate the option Star ratings). On macOS, all you have to do is leave a note when the cursor hovers over the name of the song in list mode, or even by displaying the information (⌘i) of the title.
The stars have been present in the Music app since iOS 8, but they were gone with iOS 10 before Apple restored them after a public outcry (it was with iOS 10.2).
The option to leave a thumbs-up (“Like”) and a thumbs-down (“less similar suggestions”) is still present, but it is mainly used to refine the suggestions of Apple Music. The convenience of stars is that they can be used in smart playlists, which unfortunately still remain the preserve of the macOS version of Music. However, the Shortcuts application allows you to retrieve ranking data.
