Apple Music won’t stay playing my library music

So I play a song in my library and usually it will stop after playing the single song, but now it starts playing a bunch of random songs not in my library? I have an iPhone XS

iPhone XS, iOS 14

Hello Jessicamjordann.


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We understand that the Music app stops playing music and plays random songs not in your library. We will be glad to assist.


It sounds like you may have the setting enabled in Apple Music for Autoplay. When you have this setting enabled, similar songs are found like the one that you're currently playing, and then plays them after that song has finished. You can read more about this in the article below, and turn this off, if you choose.


Add music to your queue to play next on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Android device


Let us know if you have additional questions.

Have a great day!
