## What is iana?

Rediscover your music collection.

Your collection is better than you think. iana doesn't recommend anything new. It reminds you of what you already own: with a random album from your own collection – like back when you'd pull a record off the shelf. You'll find long-forgotten albums in your library again and hear different artists, albums, and genres every day.

iana is made for real fans: we value artists and their work, and we put albums back in the spotlight. Algorithms and discovering new music are great. But so is getting lost deep in the catalog of one band or a single songwriter. So is thinking back to old concerts and the good old days. iana brings all of that back within reach.

Album Shuffle:

- Revisit old masterpieces you haven't heard in ages
- Find albums you didn't even know you had
- Shuffle whole albums, just like you used to
- For those moments when you can't decide which album to put on
- iana flips through your music collection until an album grabs you
- Shuffle several albums at once and put together a selection you can play with one tap

Also included:

- History: see which albums iana has picked for you lately
- Autoplay: playback starts as soon as an album has been shuffled
- Siri and Shortcuts: just say “Hey Siri, shuffle an album with iana”
- Widget for Control Center
- Runs on iPad, too

Playlist Creator:

No full album today? Then iana builds you a random playlist from your collection.

- Create random playlists from your library
- Filter by artist, album, genre, or year of release

### 5/5 — Thank you Iana

*2023-08-03*

I’m a child of the 70’s when we listened to entire albums from start to finish.  Amazingly, none of the main streaming services offered the ability to shuffle albums.   Iana has brought the joy of listening to an album back to me and consequently re-exposed me to many treasures from my younger days.   I am forever grateful.

### 1/5 — Album shuffle

*2021-12-04*

This app does not play continuously it only shuffles the choice you need to hit play again for the next album in the shuffle list. It also stops playing part way throat album, does not work as it should.

**Developer response:** Hi longjindberg, sorry for getting back to you this late. I have just released an update that allows you to shuffle albums continuously. Please keep in mind that the amount of records that can be shuffled at once until you have to open the app again is limited by the system. Tap the cog in the top-left corner of your screen to access the settings of the app. Also, the app should never stop playback. When you experienced this, it was most likely caused by a different app or activity on your system. Let me know if you're satisfied with the latest update or get back to me at album-shuffle@janunn.de or on Twitter (see 'App Support'). If your issues are resolved, please reconsider your rating. That would mean a lot to me. :)
