Pause between music tracks on iPhone Why is there now a pause between music tracks on iPhone since 15.4? This is especially annoying on albums that require seamless playback such as Dark Side of the Moon and any classical music.

Apple Music vs Amazon Music Amazon Music has an extremely annoying feature, it will pause playback when you havn't interacted with the app in a certain time period. It displays this message "Are you still listening? you've been away from the app for a while. would you like to continue playing music?" . Does Apple also do this? This feature might be fine for those who are never more than a couple feet from their phone or computer but it is so annoying when you are up on a roof or laying under a car with a transmission laying on your chest. No music for the next 20 to 30 minutes while you complete your task and then can get back to your phone or computer.

iPad music app stuck on 20x music playback This is probably a silly question, but I can’t find anyway to stop my iOS music app from playing at 20x (probably faster). Googling the answer didn’t help, it says to long press the forward or rewind, but that does absolutely nothing. A typical song will FF in 4 or 5 seconds. I have an iPad air 5. It was fine last night and nothing was changed. I would un/re-install the Music app, but don’t particularly want to have to reinstall 90gb of music from my PC, or lose my playlists. Thanks, Adrian
