Music app in iOS7 - glitch?

Okay... I just updated to 7.0.3, and for two days now, my problem is gone. Read the update description and was sure that this "issue" was overlooked, but after updating with my phone connected via cable to my computer (iTunes), it has regained its short term music player memory. Apple could have hidden the fix in the update or maybe the process of reinstalling iOS corrected the flaw... either way, my phone is back to normal. Now if they'd just give me back my old Calendar I'd be perfectly content (and maybe flash support). :-)

I'm also having trouble with this.

I'm also missing the ability to skip chapters with my headset remote.

Can't really find anything positive to say about IOS 7, I bet Steve Jobs would never have approved it.

Same problem too, 7.0.3, sometimes forgets where it was playing after I unplug the headphones to turn off the music player.

If i don't close the music app, it seems to remember the position.

I've used to close all background apps, but might be a good idea to let the music app stay running.

I wish I knew about this when I upgraded last week, I would have held off. I listen to a lot of audio books and although it maintains the point in the book where it was, it starts itunes radio on a regular basis. It's a real drag when you get in the car, start driving and then fire up bluetooth and expect to hear your book. When you have to have to stop driving to navigate music back to your audiobook it get's annoying really quick.

Same issue. I used to be able to pick right up mid-song where I left off with just double tapping on main button then pressing play. When I got a new 4S a year ago (OS 6) I noticed that about half the time it would not go back to where I left off but would start at the beginning of the playlist.

I was hoping to have this fixed in iOS7 but now I lose whatever playlist I was on entirely, most of the time. Sometimes, if its gone on the control screen, and I go into the phone and the music app it will continue, but that seems to drop after a few hours even if I have not really been using the phone.

This is super-annoying, and I hate when Apple and other software companies "upgrade" and undercut the basic functionality of the software. Same problem is the album view, which has pretty but unnecessary pictures that take up a bunch of the screen, and a full list of songs. So if you have many albums from the same artist you have to scroll way down to get what you want.

Please fix this, Apple.

If all of us send apple some feedback I'm sure they will fix it, at least I hope so.

Try this solution, it has worked for me so far.

If you go into music, the first button is 'radio' on the taskbar. Hit edit and move whatever you use most to be the first button. In my case, I have audiobooks there. So far, even if I force quit music, audiobooks pops up first and holds my place. I think having radio first resets everything else if your music app quits. I've moved audiobooks to first, then artists then radio. So far so good but it's only been a day.

I've also found a simular soulution that kind of works, util a fix is released.

First of, if you close the music app the progress is lost from the control center, same happens if you start a radio app, spotify etc. or anything that uses the control center.

But, it you then enter the music app as you described, and hit the "now play" in the top right corner it will return to where you left off.

I am having the same problem too... and I suspect the new feature... Apple Radio. When I get in the car, it forgets where I was yesterday (usually) then starts shuffling my 4700+ songs on iTunes Match, forgetting the play list I was on. I am in the car, and cannot mess with it (listen up you texters!), so I give up. At a stop light, I navigate to the play list I want but have noticed that it first takes me to set up Radio. The next thing below that is play all music, then my play lists.

Anybody else having issues with the Radio App budding in on you rcollection, making it forget where it was in hopes you will migrate?
