audio books pause by themself over and over

Has anyone experienced this? When walking and listening to audiobooks, after maybe 15 minutes, the app starts to pause and restart itself pause, restart, over and over.


This has happened for me when using the Libby app when listening to a library book, so I started using Audible, and it does the same thing.


I have tried new headphones, shutting down my phone and restarting, removing the app and re-loading the app, holding my phone so that nothing touches the screen when I walk, I tried locking the screen, nothing seems to help.


thanks,

Hello Carolyn_from_Maryland,


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities!


We see that your audiobooks from two different apps are pausing and restarting as you are walking and listening to them.

We’d be happy to help you!


You can follow any steps that you have not already in If an app unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open and contact Apple Support directly through the link in that article if the issue persists. 


Take care.
