Apple music is not remembering my last playlist or even the last track I was listening to after a certain and seemingly random period of time.

Latest version of IOS, uninstalled/reinstalled apple music app, logged out/in to iCloud. rebooted phone, nothing changes this behavior.

It is like there is a timeout on how long the app will remember the last playlist and song you were listening to... Leaving the app running in the background makes no difference. I never exit out of apps anyway.

The use case is this: I am jamming out to kids bop in the car. The fam gets out and we go for a walk in the park, I get back in the car after a short while and plug the phone in.. next thing I know some George Carlin standup starts playing and the F-bombs are flying for the kids and grandparents to hear.

The car is really just a specific scenario I had personally experienced...but it happens when just using the phone too. I will be listening to a playlist. go eat some lunch come back and i a blank "not playing" and it forgets where I left off and i have to go through and find out where I was in the last playlist I was listening to.

I have contacted them and unfortunately I did not get a resolution... only a "this is how it is supposed to work"
