On this weeks iOS (April 26) update the A-Z listing down the left hand side of the screen for “Songs” has disappeared (from Local Library)

It’s still there for Artists and Albums

The latest update has fixed the A-Z scroll bar not showing on the Songs section of the local Music Library.

Did you attempt to scroll along this edge? if you have the Apple Pencil does this help?

I have no proof but I suspect that there could be slightly different versions rolling out over several days - along with my previous speculation that this issue is tied to screen width.

My Windows system is down at the moment, but I didn’t have issues dealing with a “little” 50K playlist.

If this was tied to screen width, the problem wouldn’t exist on all my devices using various screen sizes using the current iOS controller. It is only a problem on iOS. Are you saying that the A-Z index appears on your iOS device when selecting the Music Library → Songs listing?

Maybe a font or screen zoom setting?

With so few reports it has to be something most users aren't seeing.

Thanks, @kdowling and @RavingDave - I’ve passed those on.

Is this an issue only for the Songs list and the other lists have the index?

For me on IOS it’s only Songs.

Yes, that is correct.

All font and screen zooming is at defaults on the iOS devices.

I’ve never looked at Music Library → Songs before checking for this. Maybe most other people don’t either. It’s not a way I would select songs to play, since my library is so large.
