Has the shuffle option been removed? If not, how can I access it?

When you start playing something a now playing display appears the bottom of the screen. Click on that to open the full screen now playing view. The shuffle button is on there

Wow, so I have to press Shuffle after every song? I'll see how that works, rather inconvient. I wish I could just use the Play Queue I'm using on my laptop.

You shouldn't need to press shuffle after every song. Turn it on, and you should be shuffling away until you turn it off.

My shuffle button is no longer available to me. Is it because it is only for the premium users? It was working yesterday morning & then yesterday evening it just disappeared. So I re-installed the app & still nothing.

Are you not a premium member?

If you are not and you are in the US, then you will have access to free mobile radio, of which you don't need a shuffle button since playback is random anyways!

I just became a premium user & I still can not see the suffle button. This is my problem, I have a variety of music on my account. Stuff from Rob Zombie to Mozart. Well it appears to be stuck on the the "classical" genre only. No matter how many times I skip, it still plays classical music. It shuffles amongst that but not my entire playlist. I am trying everything from becoming a premium user, to downloading my playlist (which is taking FOREVER) but still can not find the shuffle button. Like I said before, it use to be there & now it is gone. Plus, I just want to hear MY music, I don't want to hear everybody else's music. Isn't that why I "star" the songs I like, so I can just hear those ones?

Yeah for sure!

Is the shuffle button not in the bottom left corner of the now playing screen like in this picture?

No sir it is not. In fact the buttons that sandwhich the play, rewind & fast forward button is gone.

Just checked with Premify (super user) and he can still see it there on the now playing screen on his device.

Can you try another clean reinstallation of the application, and try again? Also can you post a screen capture of what your now-playing screen looks like?

I did a clean re-installation last night. I tried everything from clearing the data, clearing the cache & the re-installation & still nothing. I'm on version 0.5.9.29 if that has anything to do with it.

Re: Spotify for Android version 0.5.0 - no shuffle option?

Marco — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 00:08:03 GMT

0.5.9.29 and definitely still there at bottom left. No idea what might the problem here since you even reinstalled it. 😕

Can you post a screenshot on how your now playing screen looks like?

Re: Spotify for Android version 0.5.0 - no shuffle option?

Monkeykat — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 00:16:35 GMT

I totally would but *sheepishly* I don't know how to do it. I have done it by sheer accident but don't know what to do.

Re: Spotify for Android version 0.5.0 - no shuffle option?

Marco — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 00:23:44 GMT

Uhm well that also depends on what brand you're using. Just google your mobile phone + screenshot. 😛

Normally it's something like volume up + volume down + power at same time.
