Title. Sometimes skipping works, but rarely plays. I got so fed up that i just used the car radio. Restarting my phone didn't work.

See if turning off lossless in Settings > Music helps. Delete some tracks, download them again and test.

Phone Stuck I can no longer access apple music or Radio on iPhone 14. the phone is stuck on the control page for setting up crossfade and song credits and won't come off that page. It was working just fine last week. Then suddenly it got stuck. What can I do to unstick it so I can go back to listening to music and Apple Radio on my phone? I still have access to all of this on my iPad and iMac. So what the heck changed on the iPhone?

iPhone playing downloaded songs automatically in my car So here is what happens - I plug my iphone 11 in my car via USB and it works fine for phone calls and doesn’t start playing anything automatically, I usually listen to the radio in the car, but then if I use the maps function as a sat nav it starts playing the downloaded songs in Apple Music!! So then I switch it back to radio until the next instruction from my maps is said and it starts playing the songs AGAIN!!!! 😡 it just seems to be a circular thing of me switching back to radio every time there is an instruction from the sat nav. I have tried: turning off mobile data for it - still happens (think this is because the music is downloaded) turning car play off in settings - the whole phone then won’t work. deselecting auto play when the song is playing - doesn’t work. has anyone got a solution?!? I might have to delete Apple Music which I kinda don’t want to do but seems the less annoying option.

Reconnecting to wifi worked again and no more problems, but after listening to a bit of music, theres this static that scared the **** out of me. Again, reconnecting to wifi fixed it. I don't wanna keep reconnecting and reconnecting to wifi as i have little to no access to wifi these days. And um, i don't wanna turn off lossless as i have proper equipment for it. Does lossless just has alot of bugs?
