Hi

I have the latest 16.x IOS and I recently moved from Spotify to Apple Music.

I close the Apple Music app fully and take my airpods out, leave them on the desk. As soon as I put them back in, Apple music then decides I want to start playing the last song I was listening to.

I don't want to do this and I would prefer making my own decisions, I often chop and change between iphone and ipad for the Airpods and use them for calls etc so I really don't want Apple Music auto playing every single time I put the Airpods back in.

To be clear, the automatic ear detection is also off.

Is this a bug or just an Apple feature they are forcing on you because they think you want it?

Spotify never did this, if I closed the app and re-inserted my Airpods, it didn't auto play anything

Thanks
