iPod shuffle now comes in five vibrant colours. It’s available in 2GB and 4GB models. And it talks.

Our smallest music player.

To create our smallest music player, we moved the controls from iPod shuffle to the earphone cord. This makes iPod shuffle smaller than ever, and the controls are right where you can reach them. So when you want to play, pause or skip to the next tune, you don’t have to fumble for your iPod shuffle — just follow the cord and press a button.

See how the controls work

Easy-access controls.

The controls are located on the right earphone cord. With command central strategically placed in this more convenient location, you can navigate your music — and activate the VoiceOver feature — without taking your eyes off your run, your ride or whatever you’re doing. iPod shuffle includes these easy-access controls, but you can also use headphones with similar controls from manufacturers like Scosche, Klipsch, V-MODA and Belkin.

Your music library. To go.

iPod shuffle is now available in both 2GB and 4GB capacities. So you have plenty of room to store hours and hours of music — up to 1,000 songs with the 4GB model.² That’s a load of essentials for your workout or commute. And there’s room for multiple playlists and audiobooks, too.

Let’s talk colour.

The anodised aluminium enclosure makes iPod shuffle sleek and durable. It’s even more colourful in gleaming pink, blue, green, black or silver. And making its debut: the special edition iPod shuffle in polished stainless steel (Talk about rock star treatment). Even the iPod shuffle clip rocks. It attaches securely to your shirt, jacket, workout gear and backpack, making iPod shuffle the perfect fashion tech-cessory.

The first music player that talks to you.

VoiceOver will surely be the next big hit on your iPod shuffle.¹ Say you’re listening to a song and want to know the title or the artist. Just press a button and VoiceOver tells you. You can even hear the names of your playlists. And when your battery needs charging, VoiceOver tells you that, too. Learn more about VoiceOver

VoiceOver tells you what song is playing and who’s performing it.

Easily switch between playlists to find one for your run.

Navigate your music without taking your eyes off your ride.

Clip on up to 1,000 songs.

Multiple playlists.

You’ve probably made multiple playlists in iTunes. One for your commute. One for the gym. One for just chilling out. Now you can sync playlists on your computer with iPod shuffle and play the perfect mix for your activity or mood. VoiceOver tells you the name of each playlist so it’s easy to switch between them and find the one you want without looking.

Multiple languages.

A French love song. A Spanish bolero. An Italian cantata. Your music library has songs from all over the world. That’s why VoiceOver speaks 20 different languages. So it can tell you song titles and artists in the correct languages. Learn more about VoiceOver

To shuffle or not to shuffle.

The shuffle switch has three positions. Flip it to the left and you’ll hear your music in a refreshingly random way. Flip it to the middle and your songs play in order. Or flip to the right to turn iPod shuffle off.

Available in selected languages.
1GB = 1 billion bytes; actual formatted capacity less. Song capacity is based on 4 minutes per song and 128-Kbps AAC encoding; in 256-Kbps AAC format, song capacity is up to 250 songs (2GB) or 500 songs (4GB); actual capacity varies by encoding method and bit rate.
