Apple Music using cellular data

Since I received my iPhone 15 Pro Max, Apple Music has been killing my cellular data plan. When I have the cellular option turned on, Apple Music is clearly streaming everything over cellular in Lossless quality even when the music is on my phone as a download. No matter what quality I set to for cellular usage, I see 450mb blocks being used on my AT&T plan and I’m now at 60gb of usage just in the first 15 days of my plan. The settings are exactly the same on this phone as they were on my iPhone 14 Pro Max running iOS 16.7. I’m on 17.0.3 now. I’ve verified that it’s Apple

Music that’s eating data. What’s going on here?

Hi hlevin268,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.

If your music is using up data, you may want to check that all music is downloaded and have cell data disabled. This will stop data usage until you are connected to a stable Wi-Fi network for use.
