The album playlist shows every album of those songs included in my library. But 99.9% of them are incomplete / contain one song.

I’d like a list of albums that are complete. Sometimes I’d just like to listen to an entire album as I did 25y ago with CDs.

How do you achieve this without creating a playlist for every such album?

When you add an individual song or a playlist to your library it will not add the whole album to your library.

If you’d like to add an entire album to your library then you have to manually add the album to your library.

The quickest way to do that if you’ve got a song selected is to select the song in the player view, open up the menu and go to album. Once on the album page you can add it to your library.

Or if you search for the song in the search page, you can long press an individual song or open the submenu and go to album where you can then add the whole album to your library.

Yes, all true and features I know about. But where do I see a list of ONLY those albums I entirely added to my library? The existent album playlist lists all albums of all artists from whom I added maybe one or two songs to my library. So those albums only include those tracks.

Maybe you can hack something together with AppleScript or Shortcuts to create that playlist of albums for you.
