Q: ios 10 playlist shuffle cutting off end of songs?

After loading a number of songs organized in playlists, I am having an issue where when I shuffle a playlist, it cuts off the ends of songs.  Observations and testing so far lead me to believe this is solely related to shuffling playlists.  I also am seeing that the song display on lock screen is not displaying correctly when shuffling a playlist. A song will end, the next will start, but what is showing on the screen is the previous song. For anywhere from 30-45 seconds. Then the next song does show up on the screen, and the progress bar is already at the "right" place.

 

  • Played album start to finish - no issues
  • Played same album on shuffle - no issues
  • Played Playlist containing same album start to finish - no issues
  • Played same Playlist on shuffle - cuts of songs, lock screen messed up, etc.

 

Same tests performed loading songs and playlist from iTunes, then just songs from iTunes and building the playlist on my phone.

    Have you figured out a solution for this? Is Apple working on this?

    I really dislike iOS 10.  It's taken me a week just to make my downloaded music useable again.

    No joy yet.  This is one of a handful of things bugging me about 10 - clearing reminders in Notification Center on anything that doesn't have 3D touch is another PITA.

    Thanks for the quick response.  Do you know if we are the only two people in the world having this problem?

     

    I can't believe this hasn't frustrated a lot more people.

     

    Also, do you know if Apple is working on a response?

     

    This will be the last time I update to a new operating system without waiting several months.

    There was a thread with a few participants on Reddit in /r/ios.  I actually found that first, then copy-pasted the testing sequence from there after I tried it.

     

    I don't believe that Apple has anyone monitoring these support communities, and I have not actually filed a bug report - although I should.

     

    I updated because one of my apps threw up the "Requires IOS 10" message when trying to update, so I pushed the button.

     

    Doh!

    I don't even know what a bug report is.  But if it is something that might prompt Apple to resolve this issue, please file the report.  This issue makes listening to my playlists not nearly as much fun.

    Actually it's a feedback form found here - http://www.apple.com/feedback/

     

    If I can share my report I will do so.

     

    Edit-

     

    I can't share my report, you will need to file a separate one.  I linked back to this thread for full details as their form has a character limit.

    Same problem here!

     

    My iPhone 6S has some additional issues when shuffling a playlist:

    - Cutting the end of songs

    - Album cover doesn't change to the next song (sometimes).

    - When using fast forward or backward, player stops playing and does not go to the next song.

     

    What I tried with no success:

    - Kill & restart Music App

    - Playing over bluetooth or Airplay

    - Restore iPhone

    - Delete all the music & playlists on the phone and ad them again

    - Delete all the music & playlists via iTunes sync and ad them again

     

    I'm quite certain that the iOS 10 Music App produces that errors!

    Hoping to see a fix soon. It's very annoying if every song get's cut or the player just stops!
