Can't go back to track once it has played!!??

APPLE: Please bring back COVER FLOW to your music app! It was organic, intuitive. It didn't need instructions. It was perfect. Why did you mess with it?


That being said, why can't I start playing an album from the beginning, then see the ENTIRE TRACK LIST if I choose to go back and tap a different song? That's pretty much the most rudimentary function of a music player is it not?


As far as I can tell, neither on iOS nor on Apple Car Play is there a clear way to select from the WHOLE PLAY LIST at any time. Once a song has played, I can't figure out how to even FIND that song again without starting the album over from the beginning.


This can't be right. I am missing something obvious, surely. Can someone please educate me on this?


Thanks!

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

Apple does not read here in this user-to-user forum for feedback or suggestions. You can, however, let them know your thoughts here:

To get to the entire album from a track, tap on the three little dots next to the song name and then tap "Go to Current Song".

Oh well about the cover flow thing. I've made that point where they can see it as well.


Thank you for your answer. It explains why I am confused. This is what I see when I tap the '...' button (see attached screenshot).



I think, "Go To Current Song" is now, "Show Album." That answers the way to do it on iPhone. More steps than cover flow, and it's hidden inside a menu. But at least I know where to find it so thank you for that!


Do you happen to know how to do this on Apple Car Play? I have the same question there.


Thanks again,


Philip
