A simple music player, shuffler, sorter, and sequence editor for your playlists. - Select a playlist, then click Play to play from the beginning, Random to shuffle and play in random order, or click any row to start playing from there. (We use unbiased randomization algorithms producing a well distributed shuffle sequence, to bring you best results. Each newly generated sequence will not contain any duplicate tracks, and will shuffle your entire playlist.) Optionally save the randomized playlist track sequence to a new playlist for later use in this app, or other supported Music player apps. - Automatically sort songs in your music playlists from your phone. Sort by song title, artist, genre, rating, play count, album title or album track number, and if desired, save these changes to a new playlist. This new playlist can then be played within this app, or other supported Music apps. Use it to find duplicate tracks in a playlist, or order songs in your preferred way for your listening pleasure. - Manually re-order or delete unwanted tracks with the Edit button. - Use in portrait or landscape configuration. - Dark Mode supported. - iOS 12 and above. * You will need to turn on "Sync Library" in Settings -> Music. * You will need to create at least one playlist from your Apple Music app before using the app to view, sort, edit playlists, shuffle, and play songs. NOTE: ------ To use this app, you must already have playlists created in the Apple Music App or other compatible apps. This app will help you sort, reorder, and play them in a convenient way. The main window displays playlist names in sorted order. These playlist names are automatically sorted alphabetically in this app for display purposes only. It will not alter the order you currently have in your Apple Music app. We build this app to obtain the ability to shuffle music playlists differently, with the added benefit of being able to view, re-arrange, and save each random sequence generated by the app. Furthermore, we wanted to automatically sort playlists in other ways, while also having the ability to manually re-order and delete tracks. Originally we built it for our own use, but now we are happy to share it with the public. No Ads, purchases, data collection, or tracking of any kind. Enjoy, and happy listening :-)
