Customizing Your Audio Experience
In this section, we cover some Music features designed to make your listening experience more enjoyable.
Finding even more choices
If you prefer to browse your audio collection by criteria other than playlist, artist, or song, you can: Tap the More icon in the lower-right corner of the screen. The More list appears. Tap a choice in the list — albums, audiobooks, compilations, composers, genres, iTunes U, or podcasts — and your audio collection is organized by your criterion.
Wait — there’s more. You can swap out the Playlists, Artists, Songs, and Albums icons for ones that better suit your needs. For example, if you listen to a lot of podcasts and rarely play entire albums, you can replace the Albums icon with a Podcasts icon.
Here’s how:
1. In the lower-right corner of the screen, tap the More icon.
2. In the upper-left corner of the screen, tap the Edit button.
3. Drag any icon on the screen right onto the button at the bottom of the screen that you want the icon to replace.
You can drag the Playlists, Artists, Songs, Albums, Audiobooks, Compilations, Composers, and Genres icons.
4. (Optional) Rearrange the four icons by dragging them to the left or right (you can’t move the More icon).
5. When you have everything just the way you like it, tap the Done button to return to the More list.
