## What is MusicPod?

Turn your iPhone into a focused, tactile home for the music you already love. MusicPod combines a classic click-wheel experience with your device Music library, imported audio files, expressive album artwork, and deeply personal themes.

BROWSE WITH THE WHEEL
The wheel is the heart of MusicPod—not decoration.
• Slide around the wheel to browse menus and songs
• Tap the center button to open or confirm
• Play, pause, skip, rewind, and fast-forward
• Choose whether you feel haptic feedback as you move
• Follow the built-in Click Wheel Guide whenever you need a refresher

BRING YOUR MUSIC TOGETHER
Browse music already on your iPhone or linked to your account, and import supported audio files from Files:
• Music synced from a Mac or PC works without an Apple Music subscription
• Organize imported songs into folders and manage them in the app
• Explore playlists, Favorite Songs, albums, artists, songs, and composers
• Discover personalized Apple Music album and playlist recommendations when available
• Shuffle with one tap or browse artwork in Cover Flow

MAKE PLAYBACK VISUAL
Put album art at the center of every listening session.
• Follow time-synced lyrics and available translations in full screen
• Enjoy animated artwork when supported by Apple Music
• Switch to a vinyl-inspired playback visualization
• Use artwork-driven colors and dynamic backgrounds
• See clear track, artist, progress, and playback details

MAKE IT YOURS
Customize MusicPod from screen to wheel.
• Multiple body, wheel, and center-button colors
• Light and dark screen modes
• Vibrant skeuomorphic and Liquid Glass icon styles
• Gradient themes or your own photo background
• Adjustable direction, range, intensity, blur, and saturation
• Optional top-cutout blending for a more unified look

MusicPod supports background audio and Lock Screen controls. It plays music available in the device Music library and audio files you choose to import; it does not sell or download music. Cloud availability depends on Apple Music or iTunes Match and your account settings.
