[Mobile] [Other] Smart Shuffle toggle setting in settings menu

Smart shuffle is a fun way to discover new songs, but it comes at a cost. Want to reshuffle your queue? Bam, wait a few seconds longer. Want to unshuffle your playlist? Bam, no longer works, and goes to a completely random place in the playlist.

 

To me this is an unwanted complication, and I'd much rather be able to choose in the settings menu whether I want to enable the Smart Shuffle feature, or disable it.

It's **bleep**ing terrible!

I download many of my regular playlists so I don't use my data when I'm listening out and about. If I accidentally turn on/leave on smart shuffle I'm not always in a position (if driving etc) to be able to turn off or cycle past smart shuffle in the menu so I have to keep using data listening to smart shuffle music until I can turn it off.

Please add an option to disable across the app by default 🙏

Yes please, at the very least add an option to disable it entirely. I keep accidentally turning it on and it also adds a load time between switching modes.

Tap it with your finger and it goes away

Hi,

 

i really don‘t like SmartShuffle and it is just annoying when i wan‘t to switch between normal playing order and shuffle, because i always have to wait until smart shuffle has loaded it’s songs.

Maybe it is possible to give the opportunity in the app settings to just deactivate it on one device.

 

Thanks.
