iPod nano

This is Genius.

Control your Genius. Or leave it to its own devices. Either way, Genius explores your library and finds songs that go great together.

Genius Playlists.

Say you have one song you really love and want to hear other tracks that go great with it. A few clicks on iPod nano, and Genius uses that song to find other songs in your library and makes a Genius playlist for you. You can listen to the playlist right away, save it for later, or even refresh and give it another go. Count on Genius to create combinations you wouldn’t have thought of yourself.

Genius Mixes.

Now there’s another great way to get a customised set of songs on iPod nano — have Genius do all the work. Introducing Genius Mixes. All you do is sync your iPod nano to iTunes, and Genius automatically searches your library and finds songs that sound great together to create up to 12 Genius Mixes. These genre-based mixes are like channels programmed entirely with your music. It’s a great way to rediscover songs you haven’t listened to for ages, and some you even forgot you had.

Go with the Cover Flow.

View your album art in Cover Flow for a faster way to find the song you want to hear. Or just press and hold the centre button to flip the album cover art over so you can see the songs. When you find the right song, press the centre button to add it to your on-the-go playlist.

Shake to shuffle your music.

Hear songs in a totally random way. Just turn on Shake to Shuffle, then give iPod nano a shake and it shuffles to a different song in your music library. You never know what iPod nano will spin for you next.
