What I've done is, if you can figure out what app is playing the music, go into that app then remove it from the app switcher. I've found that if I paus stuff before doing the removal, I haven't had a problem. Just that I generally forget to do it. Hell getting old. <grin> From: 'Lynda boose' via VIPhone <viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 25, 2021 11:55 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: How to Stop Music That is Playing Interesting, I have an 8 too and this happens to me sometimes too. Double tap a couple times seems to work I think.

Several times now I have somehow accidentally tapped on something & the last song I played starts playing. I can see a box on the screen & moving my finger around the box gives me all sorts of info except stop. I can’t even find a mute button. App switcher does not contain the app playing the song so no way to stop it there either. I have had to turn my phone off & back on. Surely there is an obvious, better way that I am missing. Also, any ideas as to what could have accidentally started music playing? The music icon is at the very bottom right of my screen so I would have to make a deliberate choice to tap there. This morning it started when I did a 3 finger double tap to mute voice over. Thanks, Sherry Wells -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
