Iphone 6: music starts playing by itself

Not so much a reply as a confirmation this happens to me...perhaps once every 3 days..with phone (SE) sitting on the table and the screen blank....either Siri wakes up and says she/he cant answer the questioned (that was not asked) or an arbitrary phone call is made...or music happens....

Not getting an Apple answer is as annoying as the phone acting up

same problem here.

that is not the answer? Apple please respond with a truth ful answer

Same situation here, with iPhone 6. Happens randomly whether any apps or zero apps are running. Earbuds have nothing to do with it. Untouched phone will start playing randomly through the speaker. Apple, don't you have enough posts here to take this seriously? What will it take?

It happens to me when I'm listening to a video -- on Facebook, for example -- then the video ends. Music sometimes starts if I don't close the video right away. When I try to close the music, I find that I have NO apps open -- not even one. So I have to physically open Music, then turn off the music. It's driving me crazy!! I have an iPhone 6 s Plus and it didn't start to do this until I completed the update to iOS10. What the heck is going on, Apple??!

My wife and I have the same issue on our 6 plusses. No apps open in the background when it occurs.

Interesting that Apple has no reply...

Same issue here.

Started for me with the upgrade to I OS 10

No apps open not connected to charger, no headphones and iPad is locked with a cover on in sleep mode and when I go to turn it on music is playing. It's draining my battery also

What's the solution to get this to stop happening

Apple please respond

Same issue here on iPhone 6S and iPad air, real pain. Hello Apple support, anybody home?

Happened to my daughter at school and her phone was taken away for 90 days... first violation... trying to appeal to get it bavk

I have this exact same issue. When any pair of headphones are jacked in and the phone is locked and sitting still, the music will randomly come on and play. The music the phone chooses is not what was last played and completely random.

If i am using my phone on any app and have any pair of headphones plugged in, the voice control will randomly come on several times, random music will start to play, and get in the way of whatever other app I am using.

I cannot turn off "raise to wake" because it doesn't exist on iphone 6.

This doesn't solve the problem at all. There is NO background app is running when the music starts itself. Even after turning the iPhone off and rebooting it, the music can start to play by itself again.

I have a 6s that is current with all updates and this problem has been getting worse over the last 6 months or so. I've done several hard reboots and it doesn't help. What is the deal APPLE?

Keep having this on my iPhone 5s and now it's happening on my mom's 6. Really appalling that Apple support hasn't solved this problem. No, shutting down all running apps does NOT stop the music from playing. Seems to be triggered by the stupid Voice Control interface that shows up at unwanted times.

Music that starts playing and won't shut off is totally unacceptable. As is Apple Support ignoring this issue.

Hello there,

I am experiencing just the same issues, iTunes and Siri start by themselves. This is incredibly annoying and simply unacceptable that Apple is not only clueless on how to fix this bug but, even worse, it completely ignores its users' concerns and their right to have at least a valid explanation.

I have this problem, too. Since I was on a call today with an Apple support person about a different issue, I decided to tell him about music playing on its own. Apple support people don't look at user discussions in this forum! He looked up the issue in their own system and found that no one has reported it. He put my call on hold to ask a few of his colleagues about users calling about music playing on its own. No one had heard of it! So they recommend that all of you contact Apple support to log this as a problem for you.

I read to him some of the post discussions so that he can understand that there are many different types of situations where music is playing automatically - some with headsets, some without headsets, some with the phone sitting on a table, etc.

The more we all call Apple and log this as a problem, the better. Apple Support: 800-694-7466
