I recently upgraded to iPad OS 16.6 and the changes to the Music app are terrible. Soundcheck over Airplay is completely broken, not respecting the manual volume adjustments. There is no longer the confirmation when you have queued songs. So if you spent time setting up a queue, and you accidentally tap on a song while scrolling it just starts playing with no confirmation.
iPad Pro, iPadOS 16
Hi PPGMD,
With regards to the Sound Check feature over AirPlay, to clarify are you unable to adjust the volume once AirPlay has started?
As to changes to playlist and queued songs, if there's tweaks to how the Music app works that you want to see reverted, we can recommend leaving feedback here:
Let us know more details as to the AirPlay volume issue and we'll follow up.
Cheers!
Hello PPGMD,
If you use a third party app, check for app updates to see if that resolves the issue: How to manually update apps on your Apple device - Apple Support
If not, contact the app developer for additional guidance as described here: How to contact an app developer - Apple Support
Cheers!
I can adjust in the app.
Prior to the 16.6 update, Music's soundcheck would follow the manual volume adjustments (I use a third party app) which kept the volume about the same even over Airplay.
Now that feature is broken, resulting in dramatic volume changes song to song.
That has nothing to do with the issue. The app just manually adjusts the volume adjustment that is in the Mac OS Music app. The issue is that the iPad 16.6 is ignoring the Soundcheck controlled volume for Airplay. I turn Soundcheck on or off with no changes in volume. I cleared the volume adjustments too. Soundcheck on Airplay is just plain broken.
Also the issue is unique to iPad OS 16, as a last ditch I just updated the iPad OS 17 and Soundcheck on Airplay works again. Which is typically modern Apple.
iPad OS Music App is terrible...
