music app changed !!!

I have a problem since I updated my iphone 8 plus to the last version of software 11.2.6 , the music app is not recognizing Albums at all . It makes every song has its own album . I don't know why is that !! the other thing that the forward and backward buttons are changed like pic below !!! so I can't even go to the next track it just move forward by 30 secs, and when I played any song it played from the middle of it or from the first min of it ... no song played from the beginning !!! .. I tried to remove all songs and put them back, put nothing happens !! does anybody face the same problem ??! User uploaded file

Hello shadiqd,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!

I understand from your post that your songs show as individual albums rather than songs and you no longer have forward and back buttons. Depending on the file type of the songs, they could be read as audio files rather than music files. Make sure that the songs you are syncing to your iPhone are one of these audio formats that are supported: AAC-LC, HE-AAC, HE-AAC v2, Protected AAC, MP3, Linear PCM, Apple Lossless, FLAC, Dolby Digital (AC-3), and Dolby Digital Plus (E-AC-3).

The supported file formats are listed in the iPhone 8 Plus Technical Specifications:

iPhone 8 - Technical Specifications - Apple

If the songs are not one of the above mentioned file formats, you can convert them using iTunes on a computer. The following article will provide you with the steps on how to convert the file format:

Best Regards.
