Apple Music widget not updating

Hello, I’m not sure if this is a common problem, but I’ve recently updated my iPhone 11 Pro Max and started using the new widgets. I have added the Apple Music widget to my screen but it stays on one playlist coming from the Browser. It’s not even a playlist I have downloaded. Anytime I play a song through Apple Music I can only see the song playing through the app icon, while the widget stays on that random playlist. I assumed it would match what was actually playing. Is this something that can be fixed? Yes I have updated everything, deleted and reapplied the widget. Not sure if there’s anything else to try. Thanks :)

I have the exact same issue. The widget for Apple Music shows some playlist I listened to only once and when I click on the widget music app it will always take me to that playlist no matter what. My music widget never updates even after deleting it and everything. I hope they fix it soon
