music not sorting by song name in iOS 10

I upgrade my iPhone 6 Plus to iOS 10.0.1 yesterday, and now when I sort my music by Songs, it actually lists the

music by Artists name, not the song title Alphabettically. Sorting by Artists works like it should, but by song, it does

not work correctly.

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 10

Not so fast... solution provided"works" only in library mode... looking at all songs. As soon as you return to any of the (many) playlists it only sorts by artist or shuffles/randomize. I never listen to all my songs; I always play from playlists and I WANT to shuffle, sort by song title, or sometimes by artist. The stated solution almost never satisfies my needs.

I am right here with you @jasper.seven. My playlist sorts by the order I add songs without any option to sort. This is lack of BASIC functionality is the same with the Apple TV. The only device that seems to work appropriately is iTunes on the PC.


Based upon the 2-3 years of hassle it seems like Apple could care less about providing basic music app functionality. Apple, can you provide a plugin for iTunes so that I can use VBA to code in the functionality because this is quite frankly pathetic.
