Google play music is a product of Google, which is just similar to Gaana and hungama music android app. Just something to keep in mind.Are you looking for a step by step guide to fix google play music not showing songs from internal storage as well as sd card? Then you are at the right place. Sometimes GP seems to forget the above setting and you have to go set it again. Side note: I've had several instances where it will start playing Android radio after doing this. Hopefully Google addresses this someday and lets you select how it orders music it's playing. I use my car's radio to play albums in order since it can use the file name as a reference. It instead defaults to alphabetical order and I don't feel like renaming my entire library to artificially fix that issue. Sometimes I'd like to hear an album in order by asking it to play either the artist or album and it's not capable of doing that. Then when you connect it to your car simply say 'play music' and it will play music randomly from your collection. Go into Google Play, hit the settings tab and turn on 'downloaded only'. Hopefully you've found a solution already but just in case you haven't I do this with android auto and have my personal library stored on a 256GB card on my phone. The idea behind Android Auto is safety, I believe, but I cannot figure out any safe way to simply get GPM to shuffle all of my personal library. Not only is it awkward to create playlists of 1,000 songs in GMP on the web, it defeats the purpose of shuffling my entire library. Playlists - I tried creating a playlist of my entire music collection, but GPM limits playlists to 1,000 songs, which would force me to fragment my music collection into 9 or more playlists. If I'm on a long drive, as I often am, I sometimes switch from Sirius/XM to GPM and I just want to be able to shuffle all of my music library in GPM without looking at my phone or disconnecting it from Android Auto.ģ. Scroll - you can't scroll through your entire music collection while driving, and even if you can do this while parked (?), that doesn't really work for me either. I want to simply shuffle my entire music collectionĢ. Voice commands - all voice commands seem to lead to radio stations (with ads) or require me to name a specific artist or genre, which I do not want to do. Here are some things I have tried and how they have failed:ġ. With Android Auto, I can find no way to do that. I simply opened Google Play Music (GPM) on my phone, selected the 'songs' tab, and clicked on 'shuffle all.' I don't have any interest in the Google Play Music radio stations, I don't have a subscription, and I don't store that sizable library of songs directly on my phone, because it's easier to keep the library updated via the cloud from my desktop.

I have about 9,000 songs in my music library (NOT downloaded to my phone - all in the cloud) and I like to shuffle all songs in my library.

I just bought a new SUV that came with Android Auto and I can't figure out how to get Google Music Play (on Android Auto) to mimic what I have done in the past (without Android Auto).
