Shut Off Autoplay in Apple Music - No Autoplay Control Symbols Showing

This is so frustrating. I don't understand why something that should be so simple is so complicated with an apple phone. I want to shut off autoplay. There are no symbols next to the "Playing Next" track. I've restarted the phone. I closed and restarted the app. I've attempted every suggestion I've located here and nothing makes it appear. Software is updated. Iphone 14. I am on the verge of driving to the Apple Store thirty miles away with this paperweight and making a rep do it. Suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

iPhone 14

Go to Settings > AirPlay & Handoff and turn off automatic handoff. The phone is handing off music playing to the car Bluetooth speaker as it would for any Bluetooth speaker. But of course then it won’t automatically connect to any other Bluetooth speaker. Each connection would have to be manual.

I just deleted the music app and it seems to work. No more automatic music playing when connected to car.

No. This is what Apple had me do. It’s still happening. Apple is forcing me to listen to music even though I want to hear my book.

Which model iPhone does this refer to? I have an iPhone 13 and there is no "AirPlay & Handoff" to be found in Settings. Thanks.

Certainly this is in iPhone. 13 and later. Search Settings for "AirPlay" and "AirPlay & Handoff" will appear in your results. This section is under General > AirPlay & Handoff and there's a setting called Automatically AirPlay. But don't be surprised if this does not solve the problem. It fixed it for me then it retuned again although I have not restored automatic handoff.
