IOS 18 Apple Music Keeps Crashing

Since upgrading to IOS 18, Apple Music keeps crashing on both iPad and iPhone. I open the music app, start a song to play, it plays for about a minute then crashes.


Is Apple aware of this as it is happening to a lot of users who have upgraded to IOS 18? Tried all the obvious fixes, such as shut down iPad and iPhone and restart but no joy.


Apple needs to fix this A.S.A.P. particularly for Apple Music subscribers!


This is also happening to a friend of mine who has all his music on the iPad and iPhone, rather than streaming and it still crashes.

I’m on iOS 18.0.1 and today my 15 Pro Max suddenly kept crashing multiple times after one song played or if I started a song and wanted to skip ahead to another in my custom playlist. Strangely my 12 Pro Max, which is also on iOS 18.0.1 was perfectly fine playing songs on Apple Music.


What worked for me was clearing the history within Apple Music (drag down from the now playing screen and you should see the previously played songs). After doing this, Apple Music worked as normal and I could skips songs without the app crashing.


I tend to listen to the same playlist on repeat so I wonder if it caused some sort of memory corruption.
