Apple Music - Repeat won’t stay turned off

If I listen to a song and turn on the infinity option to auto play similar music, Apple Music won’t leave the repeat option turned off so the infinity option will play. I turn it off and the app automatically turns it back on. It does it over and over again. What gives??

Thanks for your response. To answer your questions:


No, it’s not occurring when I’m listening to a playlist. It happens with any song or album.


I always launch Apple Music from the app in my favorites at the bottom of my screen.


My phone and the app are up to date; no update is available.


Thanks!

TheOther_JC,


In this case, review the following articles on these features to see if it may explain why you are experiencing this. For example, features such as Autoplay can affect all devices you are signed into and there are times you may not even see the button for Repeat.



If you still can't pinpoint why this is happening, as the device is up to date, you may want to Contact Apple Support or use this Get Support link for assistance to see if this is expected behavior given your setup.


Best regards.
