No matter what I do autoplay stays on. I want to listen to one song only and music insists on going through all the songs on my iPad. It's making me crazy. Lots of instructions but nothing I do with the infinity symbol or any other icon stops Music from keeping on going.
I found a way to do it on my MacBook Pro but not the iPad or phone.
iPad mini, iPadOS 18
Unfortunately, that's worse. I don't want to repeat the song, I want the app to stop after one song. I have found no way to play only one song. It will continue playing and clicking on the infinity symbol does nothing. I've called Apple 3 times and chatted online once and nobody has a solution.
I believe there isn't one. I've had to resort to downloading third party apps to play music on my iPad and iPhone. And of course other apps can't find my Apple Music library. I have been using an ancient iPad to listen to things before sleep, often lectures that are mp3s, and am able to stop after one. With the new iPad I wake up in the morning with music still on after playing all night long.
Not good for the quality of my sleep and other good for the battery. Really annoying. For me upgrading to a new iPad was a waste of money since it can't do what the old one did.
Oh I see, perhaps if you download the song individually from the album and find it on its own afterwards in the Albums section of Apple Music. It shouldn't replay if you do it like that, at least that what I've experienced.
Thanks, but that doesn't work for me. I have all my songs individually listed, no albums. Mostly I want to listen to lectures that have been saved as MP3s, one at a time.
Music will play it and then go to the next song in the list of songs.
Hi there!
I believe this could assist you in finding the solution to your problem.
Repeat the currently playing song: Click this button
until the number 1 appears, like so:
stop Apple Music from playing another song
