Note that today is September 30th and the above image shows my usage starting from September 26th. Apple Music on Android is wasting massive amounts of mobile data by downloading full song files instead of streaming normally when you skip tracks, even when set to low-data settings. Screenshots prove that skipping just a few songs on cellular data instantly spikes data usage from 48 megabytes to 95 megabytes, which can easily burn through five gigabytes in a single day. My internet billing cycle renews on the 26th and within two days I had used 5gb with less than 2 hours of listening on high quality/high efficiency mode. At no point was hi res or lossless enabled.
When reaching out to Apple support for help, agents run you through endless scripts, claim they cannot check Android logs, and ultimately stonewall you by telling you they can't/won't do something because its Android.
Anyone else had this issue? How did you resolve it? I've been using apple music on android for years and it only started happening last month. Apple support says this is not a known issue but will not acknowledge it as a bug on their software. Please do not tell me to download albums, i want to get the service i paid for.
