LIBRARY MANAGEMENT
  • Merge Album: long-press an album to combine albums that were split across artists, and choose the album artist (for example "Various Artists").
  • Select Songs: long-press any song to pick several at once, then set one artwork for all of them or delete them together.
  • Delete Album: long-press an album to remove it and every song on it.
  • Set Artwork straight from a song's long-press menu.
  • Albums now group by the Album Artist tag when your files have one, so compilations import as a single album.
  • Edit Info gains an Album Artist field.
  • Every delete now asks for confirmation first.

  IMPORT
  • Import whole folders, and .zip archives of music.
  • Song details are read from your files: genre, year, disc number, and album artist.
  • Edit any song's title, artist, album, artwork, and more right in the app.
  • Fixes for zip files stored in iCloud Drive and zips created by some archiving tools.

  BROWSING AND PLAYBACK
  • Sort the Songs list by title, artist, album artist, year, or genre, in either direction.
  • Play and Shuffle buttons at the top of Songs and every album.
  • Long-press the visualizer to swap it with the album artwork.
  • Playback position is kept when headphones disconnect or another app interrupts.
  • A player you paused stays paused after a call or Siri request.

  SETTINGS
  • Appearance: follow the system, or force light or dark mode.
  • Keep the screen awake in the full-screen visualizer (always when charging, optional on battery, never in Low Power Mode).
