How do I disable the music app?

The music app keeps turning itself on. I keep finding my headphones playing songs that I don’t listen to playing on this app that I don’t use. I want to delete it but it is not an option to delete it. How do I disable it?

Greetings SofaCat,


Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! It seems you'd like to disable the Music app on your iOS device.


The Music app isn't able to be restricted in Screen Time. However, Music is an app that can be deleted. Check out the information in the following article:


Delete built-in Apple apps from the Home screen on your iOS 14 or iPadOS device or Apple Watch - Apple Support


Kind regards.
