Little by little we continue to reveal new features or rather, we reveal where certain options have been hidden that were previously visible and now are not so much. We are talking about certain options iTunes 12 that are not so visible and you may not have even realized that they are not there.
In this article we are going to focus on the well-known repeat button, a button that we have always used in music players to Repeat a certain track, track list or all the music.
One of the things that the Cupertino people have achieved with iTunes 12 is to reduce it to the maximum and achieve a minimalism that Jonathan Ive already started a while ago with iOS 7. The fact is that they wanted to reduce both the number of buttons and actions of the iTunes player, that actions such as Repeat have disappeared.
To be able to access this action again we will have to make use of the top menu bar, since entering the menu Controls> Repeat, we will be able to select if we want all the songs to be repeated, a song or if the repetition is deactivated. However, it is the more curious that when the repetition is activated if the icon appears in a place that does not bother and that serves to deactivate it again.
As you can see, it is not that those of the bitten apple have eliminated functionalities, what happens is that an air of minimalism has been given to the player and everything that is not strictly necessary for a fast operation of the same have been inserted in the bars of menus.
I do not know about you but I am into the minimalism of Jonhy Ive to my nose. This iTunes is so minimal that it's just awkward.
It is true it is very uncomfortable and then you do not even know where the hell the aforementioned basic functions that you use slipped away, in short, thank you very much for the little tutorial the truth is that it served me a lot at least I know now where the demonic function of repeat. Thanks again
