You can display playback controls when you’re listening to music and using another
app—or even when iPad is locked.
Display audio playback controls from another app or from the Lock screen: Double-
click the Home button, then flick from left to right along the bottom of the screen.

After using the controls, tap iPod to go your iPod library or click the Home button to
return to the app you were using.

If iPad is locked, the controls appear at the top of the screen and then disappear after
you finish using them.

Additional Song Controls

From the Now Playing screen, tap the album cover to see the controls.

The repeat and shuffle controls appear along with the scrubber bar. You can see
elapsed time, remaining time, and the song number.

Drag the playhead along the scrubber bar to skip to any point in the song. You can
adjust the scrub rate from high-speed to fine by sliding your finger down as you drag
the playhead along the scrubber bar. The scrub rate becomes slower the farther down
you slide your finger.
