How to shuffle your albums in the Music app
Sometimes you might not want to pick and play one album: sometimes it's fun to listen to a variety of stuff! You can easily do this by shuffling your albums.
- Launch the Music app from your homescreen.
- Tap Library at the bottom of your screen if it's not already selected. If it is selected, the icon will be bright red.
- Tap Albums under the Library header.
- Tap Shuffle All or the Shuffle icon at the top of the screen. It looks like two red arrows criss-crossing each other.
