As others have observed, it also displays albums that have been deleted for months. This app appears to be incompatible with any iDevice created after the iPhone 4S. ### 3/5 — my main music controller *2011-11-22* with a suggestion: add the ability to shuffle by album. This app allows me to rediscover music which keeps me from playing the same songs over and over again. Adding shuffle by album would make this awesome! (Also would be nice to provide feedback on the website, I looked.) ### 4/5 — Great app *2011-10-21* A really cool idea and a beautiful implementation. Nice work. ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2011-03-22, version 1.3* Very cool ### 4/5 — Very nice *2011-03-15, version 1.3* Very neat little app. Would be more perfect if it had a feature like ability to get a new different selection of albums not heard in a while. ### 4/5 — App is great *2011-03-06, version 1.3* It'd be nice to have a few more functions. • I like the added functionality to remove albums. Though, It'd be nice to be able to pick albums yourself that you know you haven't heard lately. •I'd also like to be able to mark albums as heard without having to listen to it. Other than that the app is great. Tapping into the iPod, via the 'Home' button double tap, so you can rate the song in the iPod app and return to Attic without missing a step. ### 5/5 — Best App Ever *2011-02-26, version 1.3* o you need to get this app it's a must ### 1/5 — Don't bother *2011-02-09, version 1.3* Great idea; just wish it worked. Crashes every time I try to open it. Tried deleting and reinstalling but to no avail. ### 5/5 — Great at what it does *2011-01-14* Very helpful app with a very specific function. It does not serve well as a replacement for the regular music player; where it really helps is in rediscovering forgotten albums in a large music collection. When I am headed out the door and do not have a particular choice of music in mind I open this instead of the player, and get a list of albums not listened to lately. Have had some great rediscovery moments already that more than repay installing the app. Albums can be deleted from the list if you don't want them there, with new ones automatically added. No crash problems in my case (4th gen Touch). My only request would be a button to refresh the whole list with a fresh set, in case it happens to come up with a whole set that don't appeal right now. ### 5/5 — Useful!! *2010-12-15, version 1.3* It's a great app. It finds albums I was in love with months ago and allows me to listen to them while there not crowded in my iPod app. It's useful to use for that alone.. :) very happy!! ## Frequently asked questions about Attic ~ Music Controller For Forgotten Albums in Your iTunes Library ### What does this app do?
