Using Genius on iPhone
Genius nds songs in your iTunes library that go great together. A Genius playlist is a
collection of songs that are picked for you to go with a song you choose from your
library. A Genius Mix is a selection of songs of the same kind of music. Genius Mixes
are recreated each time you listen to them, so they’re always new and fresh.
You can create Genius playlists in iTunes and sync them to iPhone. You can also create
and save Genius playlists directly on iPhone.
Genius Mixes are created automatically for you by iTunes. iTunes creates dierent
mixes depending on the variety of music you have in your iTunes library. For example,
you may have Genius Mixes that highlight R&B songs, or Alternative Rock songs.
To use Genius on iPhone, rst turn on Genius in iTunes, then sync iPhone with iTunes.
Genius Mixes are synced automatically, unless you manually manage your music and
choose which mixes you want to sync in iTunes. Genius is a free service, but it requires
an Apple ID.

you haven’t specically chosen to sync.

of dots at the bottom of the screen shows the number of mixes you’ve synced
