How do I repeat only one song in the new Apple Music app?

I still can't get it to work. Even after reading this and trying it. if I am playing one song and have cleared out "up next' WHICH I **HATE** it will not repeat the one song. It either stops and goes back to the list of my music or it plays the next song in order but I can no longer get my iPad to simply repeat a song over and over in a loop. This update is CRAP...all the things that i used to do easily are now hidden, difficult or don't work. Anyone have a suggestion for a replacement to play music?

Like many I have been rather frustrated trying to find the repeat option with the new apple music app. I finally find it today. You have to tap the third icon to the right TWICE then you get this very very small 1 then you good to go!!!! Remember you have to tap twice ( this worked for me on the I6plus

Thanks to all the replies. For anyone having issues ... the "button" is wonky and sometimes doesn't work. I had pressed it twice ( I never would have known this without the help here) and the song ended and the screen was blank. I tried again .. this time it worked. After pressing the 2nd time there is a tiny "1" to the right of the arrow on top. Not sure what that means. The whole thing is just not at all intuitive. The worst UI Apple has ever had!!!! I get nervous every time I try to interact with this app. Not sure I will bother with the paid version as I don't need this aggravation!! The Apple Store needs some workshops on how to use Apple Music.

Woe to those who accidentally turn this on via a phone fumble. Thank you so much for revealing this mystery because I was going insane listening to the same song over and over again and tapping shuffle to move to another eventually. Just... gah!

None of these answers are working for me. When I pull up, nothing happens. I also can't find the icon that people are describing to tap several times. Grrr, so frustrating when simple functions are hidden.

The repeat option becomes available once you expand the mini player. The mini player is found at the bottom of the screen above the "My Music" "Playlist" "Radio" "Connect" buttons. Just tap on the name of the song playing and the mini player will expand. Once the mini player is expanded, you will see the shuffle and repeat options at the bottom of the screen. Hope this helps 🙂

TThank you so much TT97! I'd have never found it there!

For iPhone SE users, you now have to SCROLL DOWN once the mini player is expanded. Everything blew up and now nothing fits onto a single screen. Wonderful.

I have to hit the the double arrow symbol to the right of play in the play menu to bring the familiar "circling arrows" symbol needed to repeat a song. Simply playing the song was not bringing up the needed, which appeared to the right of the "Up Next" label in the bottom right of the play screen.

Really not pleasant to use iMusic or iPhone/iPad any more. Months ago I had asked "I was searching for the same answer since updated my iOS on my iPhone recently........" Months later I still forget how it worked. I don't use my phone/ipad everyday for listening music. But when I need it is NOT pleasant to fiddle with it. Why all this complication just to repeat a song/album? I don't like to shuffle at all..!

I have been an 'Apple' user since early 90s. I totally agree with most of you here that this was one of the MOST STUPID thing "DONE" on UI of Music..!

Step 1: TAP the song that's playing at the BOTTOM of the screen. Eg: white blood.

Step2: Once you've reached this menu, with your finger drag the menu up like this. Be sure not to drag up the menu that has the red font that reads things such as "love it."

Step 3: you'll see an option to repeat or shuffle in red font above the song list, as shown below.

This took me effing days to figure out.. I promise this will solve your problems and change your life forever... or until the next s***y update. ENJOY

I did wat you said but I don't see repeat... I'm getting frustrated!!!
