iPhone App: Shuffle playback in spite of premium status?

[maciana]

Hi,

even though I'm a premium user, the iPhone app all of the sudden changed to "shuffle playback". I tried deleting the app, logging in & out but it's still in shuffle mode.

How can I change it?

Best regards

i have had the same problem for the past 2 weeks. i have been able to fix it temporarily by deleting the app and reinstalling.i have an iphone 5 running ios 7.1.2 and spotify premium. i did not have this problem for the 2 months prior. this problem seemed to appear after the last upgrade of spotify.

Thanks for the hint. I don't get why there's still that large shuffle play button, it used to be just a play button... but at least I now know how to turn it of.

This solves the problem but it is a lame design. A couple versions ago, I could just touch a song and it would come out of shuffle mode, that was a much better design.
