Music ratings on iOS 10

Update (for iOS 10.3+)

Since iOS 10.3 star ratings can be enabled as follows:

Settings > Music > Show Star Ratings (enable)

-

Important: Apple Music songs can not be rated with stars. It works only for music that

• was added manually to iTunes (MP3s, M4A, AAC)

• is available in your iTunes Match library and/or

• was bought in the iTunes Music Store (iTMS)

Show/change an active song's rating:

1. Open Music.app
2. Show the currently playing song. You may need to tap the Mini Player near the bottom.
3. Tap the ellipsis (...) in the lower right.
4. The song popover appears. Find "Rate Song...". It's located below "Share Song" or "Create Station".
5. Tap "Rate Song..."
6. In the new popover change the star rating.
7. Confirm your changes by tapping "Done".

Show/change a song's rating in a list view (iPhone 6s/6s Plus/7/7 Plus or newer):

1. Open Music.app
2. In any standard list (playlist, album view) force press on a song
3. The song popover appears. Find "Rate Song...". It's located below "Share Song" or "Create Station".
4. Tap "Rate Song..."
5. In the new popover change the star rating.
6. Confirm your changes by tapping "Done".

Original answer

Yes, this is the feature I miss the most in iOS 10.

Currently there are these options

1. Use Siri to rate songs: "Rate this song five stars". You cannot see a rating, however.
2. Please send a feedback to Apple. Please, do it. Apple actually reads feedback.

Dear iOS team,

please bring back the Music.app feature to see and set star ratings for songs.

Since installing iOS 10 I cannot see or set my song ratings for my music with stars (0-5 stars). I used this feature very often until now.

With Siri I can only set a rating, but I'm not able to see it. However, this does not work when I'm offline.

Is there another way to see/set a song's star rating in iOS 10?

Thank you

Apple removed the ability to rate songs with stars in iOS 10. You can now only use Like (heart) or dislike (no heart).

You can, however, use Siri to rate a song while it's playing. You can tell Siri to rate a song from 0 to 5 stars. Of course, that pauses the song playback to it's not an ideal solution.

The ability to rate songs has been added to iOS 10.2.

Another great option, and I'm quite critical of missing UI features like this, is to use a widget (previously mentioned but not linked) called Music Rating Widget. You can view the currently playing song's rating, change it, skip to the next song, and pause from the widget window.

Also, Cesium Music Player is a complete Music app replacement that does both song ratings within the app and includes a widget for rating as well. I'm particularly fond of this one because it has many other features that the default Music app is missing. (horizontal/landscape mode, view song meta data like year released, in addition to being able to easily view and set song ratings)

The rating option has returned to iOS 10.2, but the other answer that explains this doesn't describe how to get to it:

1. Go to iOS Settings > Music > Turn on "Show Star Ratings"
2. Go to the Music app, play a song you wish to rate
3. Tap the light grey playing song bar at the bottom of the app (with the pause and FF symbol)
4. Tap the ellipsis at the bottom right
5. Tap "Rate Song"
6. Rate it
