Annoying tooltips in Apple Music app since iOS 27

Since upgrading to ios 27, Apple Music always shows tooltips in the player view. I get that this should happen the first time the app is used after an upgrade but though I close them they always reappear every time I use the app. It also defaults to playlist view not the single track view which it never used to do. I can’t find any setting to change this behaviour or disable the tooltips.

And with the greatest of respect, same response - just closing the popups does not work and is not a solution.


What does seem to have worked is deleting and reinstalling the Apple Music app.

I’m going to stop using Music if this isn’t fixed. It’s unbelievably annoying.

Tap the “x” on the popup to close it. They will cease on their own shortly.

I wouldn't call 2 weeks+ shortly and they still haven't stopped.
