Creating playlists on iPod nano

You can create your own playlists of songs, podcasts, and audiobooks; or use Genius to create Genius playlists, even when iPod nano isn’t connected to your computer. Playlists you create on iPod nano are synced back to iTunes the next time you connect.

Creating and editing playlists

You can create and edit your own playlists on iPod nano.

Create a playlist:

1On the Home screen, tap Music > Playlists.

2Flick down, then tap Add.

3Tap a category (Songs, Albums, Podcasts, and so on), then tap the items you want to add. Don’t tap Done until you’ve added everything you want to include in the playlist.

4Swipe left to continue adding content.

You can add content from any category. For example, you can mix podcasts with songs in a single playlist.

5When you finish, tap Done.

The new playlist is named New Playlist 1 (or New Playlist 2, and so on). The next time you sync, you can change the title in iTunes. When you sync again, the playlist title on iPod nano is updated.
