How can I turn off Shuffle on my iPod Touch 6th Generation ( running iOS 12.5.6)

The control to turn it off is on the Now Playing screen. The controls you see on the various menus cannot be used to turn Shuffle off.

• In the Music app, when a song is playing, tap the Now Playing ribbon at the bottom of the screen to reveal the full Now Playing display (it shows the artwork for the song, the time into the song and the pause, back and forward buttons as well as song details). Then drag that screen upwards to reveal the additional controls, which includes the Shuffle and Repeat buttons. Once dragged up, the screen looks like the one shown below:

• In the screenshot above, the Shuffle button is red with white text, which means that Shuffle mode is on. Tap the button to turn off Shuffle (and the button becomes light grey with red text)

• In that screenshot, notice that the Repeat button is light grey with white text. This means that the Repeat function is off. Note that each tap of the the Repeat button switches to the next mode, as follows:

1. 1. Off - light grey button with red text. Repeat is off
   2. Repeat - red button with white text. When the current list has finished playing, the iPod will repeat the same list
   3. Repeat 1 - red button, white text with a small 1 in the arrows. This causes the same song to repeat until you stop it
   4. Off

You're welcome.
