Using an old iPhone as music player only

Dear all,

I want to use an old iPhone (XS) as bluetooth music player in our hospital. It should contain music only without any personal settings like Wallet, iCloud, AppleID and so on, since it will be used by my colleagues as well to provide relaxing music (no streaming) to our patients during their treatment in that specific room.


I would be very grateful for any advice how to achieve this.

Thanks a lot!
