How to bypass subscribing to Apple Music

I just bought a new iPhone SE. When I try to play music I see a page offering me a three-month trial of Apple Music. Is there any way to skip the trial and just play my music?

iPhone SE, iOS 9.3.2

In place of the NO THANKS button I saw GO TO MY MUSIC, but it didn't work. What a nasty way on Apple's part of attempting to push Apple Music. Shame on you, Apple!

After changing the setting all is well. Thank you, Chappers2017.

I turned of "Show Apple Music", but I still get the popup and choosing "Not Now" does NOTHING! My only option is to "Get 3 months free" which I AM NOT going to sign up to. Result, I cannot access my music, because the popup will not go away! Typical Apple Bull^%#^!

You don't have to subscribe. There should be a smaller No Thanks button on the screen. Tap that to dismiss the offer. You can turn off Apple Music feature in the popup.

As I recall the "offering" was in the form of a pop up and after declining Apple Music several times the pop up quit asking. So there is hope, just keep declining.... 🙂

You don't need to keep declining it just turn it off in setting in the music part turn off show Apple music and then it won't even pop up.
