Is it possible to crossfade songs on an iPhone that are played through the iPod app?

If there is no native way to do this, are there any apps that can do this?

I'm sorry, I don't think it is possible (yet). If you had an old iPod Nano/Classic then I might have suggested 'Rockbox' (give it a google). Send Apple a feature request about it, they never know, if enough people bombard them with requests then maybe it will become a native feature.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

I didn't know ipod have different apps from iphone, except from obvious hardware differences. isn't it the same OS? – Cawas Dec 27 '10 at 4:43
The iPod Classic (and the former Nano's) run a smaller iPod OS that is very closed and will not allow apps etc, and it is unlikely they ever will with the way iOS is developing and branching. However 'RockBox' (rockbox.org) is an open source installer that replaces the base of the iPod's audio playing ability - the firmware. Replacing firmware is different to installing apps, its fiddling with something deeper than the final UI, installing something to the core. Sadly this will not work on iOS devices. Cheers, hope this helps. – Alistair Maxwell Dec 27 '10 at 8:30

It isn't the native ipod player, but Media Mix (link to free version) allows crossfading

+1 That's a pretty good app. The only drawbacks I see are that it doesn't play music in the background, and you can't scrub through songs. – Senseful Feb 19 '11 at 22:49

I haven't been able to test it yet, but:

Making a playlist in iTunes Highlighting all songs. Right click and choose Show info (In danish: Vis Info) Last menu "Choice" (danish: Valg) Here the bottom entry point is "Albun without pause" No/Yes

I have choosen Yes and am now waiting to get home where I have my cable so I can sync with my iPhone 3GS too se if it works.

One app which does allow crossfading (although you have to do it manually) is called Tap DJ.
