Play iTune song list in order

I can’t play an album in the order the artist created the songs. I can shuffle or repeat but can not play in order or sequence from 1 to last song. This all started with iOS 13 update.

Any ideas?

iOS 13.1.2, iPhone X.

Greetings, Roger Crowley!


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you’re having an issue with your music shuffling and repeating when you would like to play it in the order of the playlist. First, I suggest checking out this article to Repeat and shuffle music to be sure the options for repeat and shuffle are turned off.


If you have turned both off and the music is still not playing in the correct order, I recommend checking out this article with steps for How to force an app to close on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and quit the Music app. Once it’s closed, Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and test to see if the issues are still going on. 


Let me know the results and have a wonderful day!
