Turn off the Repeat function.


  • Drag the Now Playing screen upwards. You will then see the additional play control buttons, Shuffle and Repeat:




  • if the button is red, with white text, the function is on
  • if the button is white, with red text, the function is off
  • In the screenshot above:
    • left picture - Shuffle is on, Repeat is off
    • middle picture - Shuffle is on, Repeat is on
    • right picture - Shuffle is on, Repeat 1 is on. Note that the repeat arrows have a small 1 in them


The repeat function has three modes:

  • Off - Repeat is off. When the current list ends, the player stops
  • Repeat - Repeat list is on. When the current list ends, the same list plays again
  • Repeat 1 - Repeat song is on. When the current song finishes, it plays again
  • Off - Repeat is off


So if you are in repeat mode and press the Repeat button, the player will then be in Repeat 1 mode.
