Hello tafbraden,


Thanks for reaching out on the Apple Support Communities. You’ve got a great question about automatically playing music at night on your iPhone. I’m happy to help you with this.

While there isn’t a setting in Music to launch it automatically, there is a great website where you can leave suggestions. Head over to this page to let your voice be heard:
