Randomising a playlist on Apple Music

I've created a playlist on Apple Music but I can't randomise it. I don't mean shuffling as it plays, I mean actually randomising the order permanently. You used to be able to do this on iTunes. Anyone got any suggestions?


I'm using version 1.0.5.14.

You have a good memory. In the old iTunes, you could click to randomize, and if you clicked many times you got various different randomizations. That capability was removed from iTunes years ago, and does not exist in the Music app either.


Shuffle as you play is still an option, as is manual re-ordering.
