Music keeps playing after album/playlist is over

When I'm listening to an album or a playlist and the last track is over, the app starts playing what seems like a random track from some other playlist. Is that a setting I can turn off?

iPhone XS, iOS 16

Hello Borges123,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!


It sounds like you may have autoplay enabled, as discussed within Add music to your queue to play next on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Android device,


"Autoplay takes the work out of choosing what to play next. Just play a song, then Autoplay finds similar songs and plays them afterward.


To see your Autoplay queue:

  1. Tap the song that's playing at the bottom of your screen.
  2. In the lower-right corner of your screen, tap Playing Next the Playing Next icon.
  3. Scroll down to Autoplay. 

To turn Autoplay on or off, tap the Autoplay button the Autoplay button icon in the upper-right corner of your screen. If you turn off Autoplay on one of your devices, then Autoplay is turned off on any device that's signed in with your Apple ID."


Hope this helps!
