Recently started listening to lossless audio. The Music app was fine for the first few days but after that the app became buggy. After the first 15 seconds of a lossless song, I can’t play/pause, go to next song or anything. Although, there is a kind-of fix. I connect to the internet and the issue is gone. But that’s annoying as I already downloaded said songs into my device and still requiring to be online is frustrating to say the least.
Hello Threeoux,
It sounds as though you're having issues with the Music app becoming unresponsive when listening to lossless audio songs that you've downloaded for offline play. Apple Support Communities is a great place for help! You've done a great job isolating the issue to playing the songs offline. In addition to that step have you attempted to delete and redownload the songs? If not, try that step next.
Delete music, movies, and TV shows from your device
Add music to iPhone and listen offline
You may also find some great troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article. These steps can help resolve issues with applications becoming unresponsive.
If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won't open
If you continue to have issues after those steps, it would be recommended to contact Apple. You can find their contact details via the Get Support website.
Take care!
It’s a known problem, several similar posts here. Hopefully, a fix is just around the corner but until then, to workaround, enable Cellular for Music in Settings and be sure to play only downloaded stuff when on the road.
Same here. Re-download doesn’t help at all!
