CueID identifies the songs inside long recordings — DJ mixes, radio shows, podcasts and live sets — and turns them into a timestamped tracklist you can edit, export and keep. Recognition is powered by Shazam.
Drop in a recording, paste a link or pick a podcast episode, and CueID listens through it section by section, building a tracklist with artwork, confidence ratings and Apple Music links as it goes.
YOUR RECORDINGS ARE NEVER UPLOADED
CueID analyses audio on your device and creates a short acoustic fingerprint of each section. Only that fingerprint is sent for matching — never your audio.
EVERY WAY IN
• Your files: choose recordings or a whole folder in Files, or drag them in on iPad
• Links: paste a Dropbox or Google Drive share link, or a direct link to an audio file
• Podcasts: search Apple Podcasts for a mix series, or follow one by its feed, Apple Podcasts link or website, then scan new episodes with a tap — or have each new one scanned automatically
WHAT YOU GET
• Listen: hold CueID near the speakers at a gig, a club or the radio and it names each track live, with the time it came in
• A timestamped tracklist, with artwork and links into Apple Music
• Accurate start times: CueID can narrow each timestamp down to the transition, and a waveform shows where every track falls — drag a marker to fine-tune
• BPM and musical key for each track, handy for planning your own sets
• Review steps through the uncertain matches and gaps one at a time, so you can check each by ear
• Edit anything — correct a match, name a section Shazam couldn't place, or add a track by hand
• Split a recording into separate audio files, one per track
• Export as plain text, YouTube chapters, Mixcloud, 1001Tracklists, CUE sheet, Markdown, CSV, M3U, Rekordbox XML or Traktor NML, with BPM and key if you like
• Build an Apple Music playlist from everything that was found
• A library of every set, synced through iCloud to your Mac, iPhone and iPad, and searchable by set or by track
• Shortcuts actions, and Open in CueID from Files
• Queue up as many recordings as you like and leave it running, with a notification when each one is done
• Watch a folder and scan new recordings automatically while CueID is open, once they've finished being written, saving each finished tracklist to a folder of your choice
ALSO ON MAC
CueID is also on Mac, and one purchase unlocks it on all your devices.
FORMATS
MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV, FLAC, ALAC and AIFF.
WHAT IT CAN'T DO
Shazam only recognises music that's in its catalogue. Unreleased edits, white labels and bootlegs usually won't match, and heavily mixed passages can be missed. CueID marks those sections rather than guessing at them — and you can retry them, listen to them, or name them yourself.
CueID works with audio files, cloud share links and podcast feeds. It doesn't download from streaming services such as YouTube, SoundCloud or Mixcloud.
FREE TO TRY
CueID is free to download, and your first scan is free whatever its length. A single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited scans — files, links, podcasts and Listen — plus the queue and automation, on your Mac, iPhone and iPad, and it's shared with your family through Family Sharing. No subscription.
Everything else — exporting, Apple Music playlists, editing, review, the library and iCloud sync, start-time refinement and previewing — is free and stays free.
