RE: A Question for Veteran iOS, iPAD OS Apple Music App VoiceOver Users
Hello Rajiv, It's good to hear from you. Okay, thank you for your reply. To say that I am underwhelmed with Siri's Apple Music management capabilities in comparison to that of Alexa's Amazon Music management capability, would be the understatement of the summer, thus far, (smile).

Hi Mark, As a fellow Apple Music user, I am afraid that all you can do with Siri is the following: "Hey Siri, add this album to my library." "Hey Siri, add this song to my workout playlist."
