Turn off Shuffle in Tidal App

The Tidal app is excellent for finding and playing high quality streaming music.  It's a bit less intuitive when it comes to some of the controls - shuffle for instance.  When viewing an album, you have a large Shuffle button to tap - and that sets the playback to shuffle through all the songs in the album.  Great.  But what if you want to listen to the album in order?  No button found on the album page. 

How To Turn Off Shuffle In The Tidal App


To turn off shuffle for an album in the Tidal App, you need to go to the 'Now Playing' screen - tap the song playing at the bottom of the screen to get to the Now Playing screen.  There, you will find a Shuffle toggle:
Tidal Now Playing Screen with Shuffle button toggle highlighted
Tidal Now Playing Screen, with Shuffle button toggle highlighted

Tidal Now Playing Screen, zoomed to play controls, with Shuffle button toggle highlighted
Tidal Now Playing Screen, zoomed to play controls, with Shuffle button toggle highlighted
Tap the shuffle icon to toggle Shuffle on - or off.  White is On; faded grey is Off.

I had to look it up, so I thought I'd document how to turn shuffle off in the Tidal streaming music app.  Hope this helps you as well!
