Virtual Shuffle — Android app that forces Spotify to play truly random tracks
I noticed that Spotify kept playing the same 10 songs in my playlist even though shuffle was enabled, so I built Virtual Shuffle to take control of Spotify and play truly random tracks from my Spotify playlists/albums/artists, etc.

Congrats Team Virtual Shuffle for this ingenious launch! The new level of randomness infused in our playlists will undoubtedly transform our listening experience. A suggestion: perhaps consider adding a similar feature for podcasts, where users could shuffle between different podcast episodes for a truly random learning or entertainment journey. Keep rocking the tunes!
@manmohit I wanted to do that but listening to podcasts randomly is actually a terrible experience.
Virtual Shuffle - Truly Random on ProductHunt is a must-have Android app for Spotify users. It ensures a genuinely random music experience, adding an element of surprise to your playlist. While it's an excellent solution, a more user-friendly interface and wider device compatibility could enhance its appeal further. A game-changer for those seeking musical variety.
@marty_quinn The interface has a radio button (To choose the type of shuffle) and a checkbox (To start or stop the service). I can't think of any way to make it more user-friendly. It can't be made for iPhones because of the way iOS works.
Virtual Shuffle leverages cutting-edge algorithms and blockchain technology to ensure that every track you play is genuinely random. No more predictable playlists or repeated songs – experience the thrill of true musical exploration.
There is no such thing as truly random when you're working with computers. I'll be sure to replicate your randomness with my hacker toolz
@kingromstar True. But it's random enough. I think you'll find working with Spotify's API and SDKs to be a little frustrating lol.
With Virtual Shuffle - Truly Random, you can break free from the monotony of predictable playlists and experience the thrill of true randomness. Unlike conventional shuffle options that often repeat songs or follow a predictable pattern, this app introduces an element of surprise to your Spotify listening sessions. By forcing Spotify to play tracks in a genuinely random order, you'll encounter hidden gems, forgotten classics, and emerging artists, making your music exploration journey all the more exciting.
