## What this shortcut does

🔀 Get Shortcut without account
I built this Shortcut for Apple's Music app (iOS 15 & macOS Monterey) to help rediscover forgotten songs in my Music library and avoid hearing repeats.
“iPod Shuffle” creates a fresh 100 song shuffle from your library based on how recently songs were added; how recently songs were last played, and how many times songs have been skipped.
Setup and Use
Get the Shortcut
Set most recent Shuffle range (Default is 2 months ago).
Limit how recently songs were last played (Default is 10 days).
Set the maximum number of skips a song can have (Default is 4).
Limit the number of songs scanned at a time (Default is 13,000). Set slightly lower to improve shortcut speed, or higher if you don’t care about speed.
Run the shortcut to create a 100 song Shuffle.
