Can yiu get Playlists on the S550 (2017)

I am using the wireless connection for music but it is lousy not having playlists since the one I use the most is recently added songs. Is there any way around this or other device I can use with Apple to get playlist connectivity?
Thank you

Actually solved this today. Hopefully this may help someone. With bluetooth you just play the audio and can advance tracks only from what I saw.

BUT if you plug the iPhone into the USB port, you can do everything, playlists, search by name even search by voice. I don't love keeping the phone in the center compartment but it was nice to have the tunes again. Might put-an old iPod in there and keep the phone out.

I had my old iPod plugged into the center storage bin USB port. I was able to see my music as always and I have access to my playlists and folders. But I can't seem to get the iPod to stay turned off when I'm not using it. This morning I checked the iPod and sure enough, it was lit up like it had been running all night.

I bought a tiny thumb drive to transfer my music to and use that instead. It works, but my playlists are gone. I can search by Artist or Album, but my mixed songs playlists aren't available. I added some to the thumb drive, but they're just text (.txt) files. When I go to Playlists on the MB sound system, it doesn't see them. MB obviously will use playlists since it's a listed option. I'm just not sure what format they need to be in.

Found it on another thread. Export your playlists as M3U files. Just change the format before exporting. Works perfectly.
