Well, that&#8217;s exactly how the Big N phrases it in the ver. 1.3.0 patch notes, only detailing the ability for expired subs to &#8220;delete their personal playlists&#8221;. It&#8217;s likely that there are more additions for those without a membership anymore (this is &#8220;features&#8221;, plural, after all), but we&#8217;re still looking for them.<\/p>\n<p>An active Nintendo Switch Online membership is still required to get started on the app and to actually listen to the music, but at least you&#8217;ll be able to prune your playlists if you let your membership expire and you&#8217;re yet to renew.<\/p>\n<p>There are a couple of other tweaks besides this in the latest update, with the new version improving app functionality for particularly beefy playlists, and cleaning up the overall user experience. You&#8217;ll find the full patch notes (via the <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/nintendo-music\/id6466376604\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Apple App Store<\/a>) below:<\/p>\n<p>Nintendo Music Ver. 1.3.0 (4th August 2025)<\/p>\n<p>\u30fb We have improved functionality when large numbers of tracks are added to favorites or playlists.<\/p>\n<p>\u30fb Some functions, such as playlist deletion, will continue to be available to Nintendo Music users who cancel their Nintendo Switch Online memberships.<\/p>\n<p>\u30fb We have addressed some issues in order to provide you with a better user experience.<\/p>\n<p>Have you noticed any other Nintendo Music changes for an account with an expired NSO sub?
