Apple Music still horribly buggy in iOS 18

[PeytonT123]

Is anyone else still having issues with Apple Music in iOS 18?

I was hoping it was a temporary issue when iOS 18 was first released but I've noticed no change. It occasionally works alright, but it quite often will just quit in the middle of a song playing, it will be stuck on "Loading" when picking a song (that's already in my library and downloaded to my phone), won't play the next song when I hit next, etc. It's becoming insanely frustrating.

That’s unfortunate. I’m not having any issues. Glad to be back on Apple Music after the mess that is Spotify

Did you ever have issues? I'm trying to figure out what's causing it but not sure if anyone else is having issues.

I have been listening to Apple Music all morning for the last three hours or so and I haven’t had any issues.

Songs are playing. Rewinding or skipping when I need them to. Playlists are doing well.

I’m on iOS 18.2 beta using my iPhone 11. On Wi-Fi.

I haven't had any major issues either. On rare occasions I've had it stop playing randomly, force close and then it's good for another month. Just the odd glitch.

I haven't had any issues whatsoever....

No issues here.

On release of iOS 18, the Music app would completely freeze on me after half an hour or so. It’s been much better for me in later iOS 18 updates. When it was freezing on me a lot, I found that using Shortcuts to play my playlists helped.
