iOS 8.3 Music App Bug

SInce updating to 8.3 the Music app no longer remembers where it left off on Shuffle play after closing the app. I've checked settings, rebooted, etc. What am I missing?

Since updating to the 8.3 I've also had the same issue with the music player not remembering the shuffle after closing the app. This is likely a bug that Apple needs to fix!!!! Very annoying because I don't want to have to keep playing music over and over again... Your not missing anything Gareth Glynn, this is a total iOS bug issue. We might have to wait for a future iOS 8.3.1 but that seems unlikely at this point according to reports. Probably the best possibility to get a fix for the issue is to wait for iOS 8.4 where apple is working on the music app for a new look and features. Expect it at around June before WWDC so might have to deal with it for a while.

Hey GarethGlynn, I've got confirmation today from Apple regarding the Music Shuffle Problem we've all been experiencing. Unfortunately according to an Apple Support Spokesperson this feature was removed/changed in 8.3 for no reason!!!!! So to answer the question (unless Apple brings the feature back in iOS 9 we aren't expecting to see anyway to shuffle all our Music in the Music Application now.
