On certain albums, the song time display stutters and stops on Apple Music on my iPhone. I have an iPhone 17 with iOS 27. Let me share what happens with, for example, Taylor Swift's song "the 1" from her album "folklore." The timer gets stuck on 0:01, then jumps to 0:08, then jumps to 0:11, then jumps to 0:18. The song time display doesn't tick up by second but jumps to various times 5-10 seconds apart. The audio plays continuously, but the song time display doesn't move smoothly.
