Sure it’s exactly the same, except where you draw arbitrary boxes to equate things to suit your point.

If your library is like mine, a combination of my old shit that I owned and other shit you’ve added, you’d have a lot of dupes in your full library. Just looking at my library of all songs, picked a random song “Ride the Lightning”, I have 10 versions of that song, 3 studio and 7 live from different albums. Throwing all in a shuffle means all 10 would be in rotation, with chance of dupes. There is no way to filter from that.
Is that what you’re asking? Or are you saying the shuffle feature isn’t really shuffling properly? I’m actually not sure if it can handle that many songs.

Man I've almost made this post so many times.
I have a playlist with about a 1,000 songs in it that I hit shuffle on whenever I'm going somewhere, driving dog park whatever. Despite a fresh shuffle each time, I'll still hear the same handful of songs within the first couple hours without failure while there's other songs that I've completely forgotten exist. Shit there's even one song that has zero plays even though I've used this playlist near daily for years.
Somethin fucky going on.
i thought that they used some sort of algorithm or genius mode that only shuffles songs you like and 'want' to hear, meaning its not truly random?
Nah, it's literally just repeating the same songs. I get it if I have multiple versions, but that's not the case here.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I listen to music alot, so maybe I notice it more than the average guy, super frustrating.

Yep, that's exactly it. I've tried turning on and off shuffle 10 times to see what happens yesterday and I got 2 of the same song within an hour.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Do Apple users need to refer to Mario's lottery page? It's not like the 6-49 lottery "randomly" selects 6 new numbers for 8 weeks in a row before it has to repeat one.
That's not what random means.
Was playing around with the shuffle all songs feature last night, while I couldn't get it do duplicate the behavior, I *think* it's because it doesn't actually shuffle the entire song list. The "play next" list only shows like 200 songs. When a song finishes, it loads another new one in the shuffle. I mean I couldn't get it to happen like you guys said, but if it's only maintaining 200 songs in the shuffle, I can see it happening.
That said, WTF you shuffling your entire library for? Listening to that was pretty fucked up. Went from Thomas the Train to Fuck da Police lol.

Sounds legit. Also, have you heard of steaming?

That makes sense to me. Like over time the repeats will change but in a given week there's always this loop. Drawing the same few songs out of 200 is a lot easier to understand.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
My best bet is I'm just hitting play to resume the shuffle rather than a full restart of the app, so it just re-shuffles the play next list hence repeats. Still, dumb behavior. If that's right then Apple just needs to redraw the play next list whenever playback resumes after the device i.e. truck, headphones power cycles or something idk.

Trance 1000 - 1001 songs.
Besides, shuffling that many songs isn't difficult.
Rather than start a new thread, I have another issue and I get the same bullshit tech answers "clear cache, reset phone" bla bla bla.
Apple music is downloading music while I'm sleeping and while I'm on wifi, but clearly my wifi is shutting off or something when I'm asleep, because every few days, Apple music downloads 7-12gb of data in one night.
I have my settings set to not use mobile data and only on wifi but im not sure wtf else to do. Thus is on Android not iPhone BTW
Well there is your problem right there…
I would guess it has something to do with how android handles background app refresh.
Maybe try opening the Apple Music app shortly before going to bed so that the app is still active in memory and not hibernated or something.
That said… what is the actual issue? A lot of playlists don’t update daily. Are you just wanting to smooth out your data usage or something?

Sorry, the issue is that I only listen to downloaded music, so I should be using 0 data, yet I go to sleep, wake up to find my phone downloading apple music and it downloaded a shit ton of gigs overnight.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
It downloaded 10GB over cellular?
Do you have wifi assist/boost (whatever android calls it) turned on?
If the wifi sucks where you plug in your phone for the night that could be the issue.
Otherwise, sounds like it’s android not blocking cellular use in the app properly. No idea how to help you there.

I suspect that's the issue too, wifi turning off when im sleeping, but the apple music app isn't supposed to do anything on mobile data.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I found a setting on wifi to get notifications to switch apps when they can't connect, so im hoping that I get asked to switch and I have to approve it before it does. We'll see if it works
Have you tried using a different music app that has a functional android app? Or a different phone that works well with Apple music?
Apple is an all or nothing kind of ecosystem. Don't dip your toe.
