Unlock a deeper understanding of your music library, or simply have fun by comparing an original recording to a remake.  Whether you are a musician transcribing a complex solo, a student, or a dedicated listener, ListenA2B gives you the tools to break down songs and capture your insights with precision.

A Note on Compatibility:

This app analyzes purchased or scanned (based on metadata) music audio files in your Music Library.   Performances from Apple Music must be added to your library. (Please note: Some DRM-protected  files may have limitations based on Apple Music permissions).

If you’re a classical music fan, see our app that’s focused on that genre, Classical2Ear.
