toistonäppäimellä

Toistonäppäin, often translated as "repeat button" or "loop button" in English, is a common interface element found in various digital applications and devices, most notably in media players. Its primary function is to enable the repetition of a specific segment of audio or video content.

When activated, the toistonäppäin typically instructs the playback software to restart the currently playing track, chapter, or a user-defined section from its beginning once it reaches its end. This is particularly useful for listening to music, practicing a particular phrase in a language learning application, or reviewing a specific part of a video.

The visual representation of the toistonäppäin varies, but it commonly features an icon depicting an arrow forming a loop, often with a numeral "1" inside or next to it to indicate single-item repetition. Some interfaces offer different repeat modes, such as repeating the entire playlist or queue, which would be indicated by a different icon, sometimes showing multiple arrows or a different arrangement. The exact behavior and appearance of the toistonäppäin can differ slightly depending on the specific software or operating system.
