PLEASE NOTE! This app does not provide you with any music, it just feeds off your music library that's been synced/downloaded to your device with the iTunes apps! Ever wanted to give some of your music a break but not actually delete it from your iPhone so you can shuffle your whole collection without hearing them? Well I had that same problem to, so I made an app to get round it! MyMusic will let you temporarily disable certain artists/albums/songs in your collection so that they don't get included while you're shuffling all the songs you DO want to listen to! You can browse your songs by name, artist or album and listen to them just like the normal Music app. There's even a search feature for those of you with oodles (that means lots) of songs! If, like me, you enjoy shuffling all your songs but don't like it when you get a load of the same artist playing a row, because you just crave variety, then you'll be glad to hear that this app, by default, has a smart shuffle feature to help avoid this! Or if you really like the chaos of true random shuffling you can turn off the smartness... Anything YOU want to see in the app, just let me know! ## Key features - Exclude artists, albums, or songs - Temporary disabling of tracks - Shuffle entire music collection - Smart shuffle feature - Browse by name, artist, or album - Search music library ## Recent user reviews (4 of 4) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/mymusic-control-your-music/id944705595/reviews.md ### 5/5 — Just plays music - great. *2021-04-12* Update. Quick response from developer to my query. I had been looking for an app to play my own music collection after the iTunes app messed up my music. This does the job well. Can’t find out how to delete playlists and songs on the app. That would be a great addition. **Developer response:** Thanks for the review! Glad the app is useful to you! Unfortunately I can’t provide a feature to delete songs or playlists as they’re controlled by iTunes or Apple’s Music app only! ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2021-03-24* First impressions are good, but PLEASE ADD AN ALBUMS TAB. I’d definitely give five stars if that was included. I’m glad the app lists the length of each song which apple’s app does not do. That was the main reason I was looking for a new app to play the songs I have stored on my phone. This app is just what I wanted, but the lack of an albums tab is disappointing. Hopefully that can be fixed with an update. **Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for the review! Glad it’s got some of what you’re looking for! For the albums tab I guess you’re looking for a list of all the albums on the phone, not limited by artist (as you can get to see a list of an artists albums already). I’ll consider it for a future update :) ### 1/5 — This is horrible *2019-10-11* This is such a bad app please can you make it better **Developer response:** What don’t you like about it? In what ways could it be better? You can get in touch with me by sending feedback from the settings tab :) ### 1/5 — Stupid *2015-11-15, version 1.3.2* I try to look up song and it says "no match found!" Really how am I suppose to get a song!! Delete!!! **Developer response:** This app is only for interacting with songs you’ve downloaded to your iTunes library I’m afraid! ## Frequently asked questions about MyMusic ### Does MyMusic play music from streaming services?

Siri can now announce each new song to you. If that interests you then you can turn on the 'Song announcer' option in the Settings screen. Added 'Loop queue' setting so you can let your music stop at the end of the queue, good for listening to music when going to sleep and letting it stop after a while rather than looping all night! Also other bug fixes and improvements! ### 2.2 — 2016-09-25 Ok, it's been a while.. Last up we had the introduction of smart shuffle. Turns out it wasn't really smart enough so it's been studying hard and now provides much better randomosity. In the Settings screen you'll now find a 'Stats' option, which will tell you a few interesting stats about your music. Not much interesting yet but hopefully more to come in the future! I've also been battling hard against memory management and iOS shutting down the app inbetween songs in the background. This now appears to be much improved so if you struggled to listen to music and play memory hog games at the same time then that should be a thing of the past now! Obligatory bug fixes, of course. This is probably the last update for those of you still on iOS 8 and maybe even iOS 9, unless of course this one introduces really bad issues, of course! ### 2.1 — 2016-05-21 Smart shuffle is here! Have you ever been annoyed that your shuffled songs play the same artist more than once in a row? I know I have... so smart shuffle is here to help avoid that! Smart shuffle is turned on by default but you can go back to the truly random (and hence nowhere near as smart) shuffling of yesteryear if you wish! And, as is tradition, some bugs have been fixed :) ## Apps similar to MyMusic | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Plum Music Player](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/plum-music-player/id1441625664) | 3.5 (17) | Free | Music | | [Music PickAxe](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/music-pickaxe/id6742783882) | — | Free | Music | | [Hezel for Apple Music](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hezel-for-apple-music/id6472612361) | 4.8 (381) | Free | Music | | [SongButler](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/songbutler/id1483406279) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Music | | [What's Playing](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/whats-playing/id1067849706) | — | $0.99 | Music | | [Derecom Music Player](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/derecom-music-player/id1469715862) | — | $0.99 | Music | ## More apps by Chris Mash - [Quick-E-Mail](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/quick-e-mail/id863318779) - [Insistent](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/insistent/id869486104) - [Orbit Milestones](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/orbit-milestones/id914113239) - [Upcoming Events](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/upcoming-events/id6477400059) All apps by Chris Mash: https://appshunter.io/developer/570568194 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
