Hello. I read that on iOS 5 and 5.1 that you can delete songs directly on music app by tapping and swiping right. Have tried to do it om my iPod touch and VoiceOver with no success, have tried double tapping holding finger down n swiping right but nothing happens. Is it a single finger swipe or triple cos can't seem to do it?

Even with sight, this is not an easy task to accomplish. The easiest way I can find is to drag your finger until you find the song or album that you want to delete. Keep your finger on it, double tap and hold. While holding swipe right quickly. Try to make sure that you are swiping directly right and not skewed up or down. There is no confirmation that you have brought up the delete button on that song or album. You just have to swipe right to see if it is there after the process. Hope this helps!

double tap and hold as was previously suggested, but swipe quickly left and right a couple of times as though you were rubbing something out. the delete button will appear to the right of the song you want to delete. This also works for albums and artistst. I hope this helps Kara
