My air pods are playing music uncontrollably. I don’t know how to stop it

Hi Bowerman1027,

Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today.

There are a couple of different ways you can stop music. This article will describe AirPods controls and where to pause depending on the model you are using.

"In addition to controlling audio from the apps you use with your AirPods, you can use controls directly on your AirPods to do things like pause and resume playback, skip tracks, answer calls, and use Siri. You can adjust the controls for AirPods (all generations), AirPods Pro (all generations), or AirPods Max on your device."

You can also go right into the app you are using and pause music. This page will explain the Apple Music app controls: Play music on iPhone.

Have a fantastic day!
