Very specific question: With a micro SD card inserted, will it start playing immediately when hitting the "ON" button, or do I need to hit "play" too?

Yes, when using the Micro SD card, you hear a beep which you always do when you turn it on, then it starts playing right after the beep.

Only when you put the mini sd card in. But not when you plug your phone in.

I have not tried to do that yet, but from what I've read you should be able to play it directly from the Sd card

When I hooked mine up, I simply plugged it in and started playing. It was very straight-forward. Sorry I can't be of any more help.

As you haves been told, the is no shuffle. It will play songs in the order that you put them paws the SD card, or if they are in folders, the order that you put the folders on. If the battery dies it will reset to the first song on the drive, but if you don't let it die, it will continue where it stopped.

I had the same question beforehand and never got a straight answer. As far as I can tell there is NO shuffle/random function on the unit. When playing songs off the SD card it always plays them in the same (alphabetical) order. The "Repeat" button just turns the repeat function off and on, and the "Mode" button just changes the input. There is no mention of a "shuffle" function in the instructions. The lack of a shuffle/random function is the only criticism I have though...otherwise it is a great little device.

Hi JasonThanks for your help, but in my case it did not work. The computer disk management shows the SD Card, but reports that there is no media. Therefore there is no option to format the card. Is there another way to get this working? Thanks, Urs

As Gregory says an SD card is needed, I received it and in the bag was the instructions the only thing that you have to know is that the device work as an usb device, charge the music files by copy and paste on the usb file storage in my computer. For playing just have to turn on the mp moving the little button and a red light will display on the mp, play for mp music and if you want to listen fm press and hold the play button untill the change is done i hope this little text help you

I leave mine in all the time. As long as the Bluetooth stays active on your phone it should still connect when you hit play.

I used the scan disk micro SD card just fine. Maybe try it again and make sure it slides in until it locks; you will feel it connect. I was able to access my music from the micro SD card.

Although I haven't used it yet, I have an app called AppMgr that will do that. Why haven't I used it? Using the SD card for music, not apps...:-)

You need to remove the mini SD chip from the device and play it on a PC, phone or other device. It comes with a USB reader to plug it into your PC.

After you install the new firmware to the card, power the unit up while holding down the play button. Then press the >> button once and press record....give it about 5 seconds and then power it off and then back on and it should work just fine.....just sort of did it by accident!

Hi,The card plays in two modes. . . straight through or random play. Interestingly, going back and forward again in random mode does not repeat the same songs again. It does pick up where it left off. The Android app allows you jump between folders as well. No tracks are shown. In that sense, it truly plays blind. When not in Random play it will loop around the songs in the order that they were written to the card. There is support documentation that explains this.

Yes, it does have a shuffle play. It requires pressing one of the buttons (I believe its Mode) until you enter that mode. There is no audible or visual indicator about the mode, so you have to use trial and error.In addition, if the SD card is inserted when you turn the speaker on, it will play sporadically. Simple eject the SD card and re-insert it and the speaker will play normally.
