Playing albums in order

432sssd — Sat, 26 Dec 2015 17:23:52 GMT

I've googled this which seems to be a pretty common issue for folks but all threads I found seem to be specific to other platforms. I'm looking for a step by step on how to solve this on android.

Hello and welcome to the Spotify Community!

Go to the album you want to play
Play first song
Look for this icon:
Make sure it's greyed out (not green)
Enjoy the album.

I don't believe there is a way to play a album in order on a phone using android unless you have premium, I don't however know if you are using a tablet! Sorry!

Don't worry, I'll show you some pics.

Play the first song of the album
Click the "Now Playing" bar
Click on the "Suffle" icon

That does solve the problem. Thank you.
I was really looking for a way to change the big red "Shuffle Play" button to a big red "Play" button. But this works.

Hi there. You seem to have posted the wrong symbol 'repeat' , when you meant to post the symbol with arrows crossing 'shuffle', as show in your screenshots. *sigh*

Hey @ukjonah!

Thanks for pointing this out.

I've gone ahead and changed out the icon for the Shuffle one.

Great detective work here🔎

Have a great day!

Thanks for the help!
This procedure is really annoying to me. It would be great if there were two separate play buttons (shuffle and in order), a Setting to set a personal default or intelligent behavior by the App that sets the default for albums to „in order“ and for playlists to „shuffle“. I really don’t like to click several times each time I want to play an album correctly.
