Making tracks play.

On my (not smart) phone and my android tablet I have folders containing music.

The album tracks in their folder will play automatically one after another. The assorted tracks from various sources in their folder will not and each one has to be clicked to make it play after the previous track has finished.

How do I make the assorted tracks play one after another automatically please.

Many thanks.

    Give them numbers at the start of the filename. eg. change Penny Lane.mp3 to 01 Penny Lane.mp3
    You'll probably find that your albums that play correctly are either like this, or have track number information in the MP3 metadata (where track name, year and loads of other stuff can be stored). You can edit the metadata of those MP3s instead if you wish and your phone should pick that up too.
