## What is Sortwave?

Swipe music into place.

Sortwave is a focused playlist-curation companion for Apple Music. Choose a playlist, listen to each full song, and decide what belongs without breaking your flow.

Swipe right to keep a song. Route it up or down into playlists you already use. Mark favorites, shuffle your session, scrub through playback, undo a decision, or stop whenever you want. Sortwave queues your choices locally and applies them together when you choose Finish & Sync.

Apple Music doesn’t allow third-party apps to directly delete arbitrary library songs. When you mark songs for removal, Sortwave places them in a clearly labeled Deleted Songs playlist and shows a short guide for completing deletion safely in Apple Music. Your original library stays under your control.

Features:

• Full-song Apple Music playback
• Fast, gesture-first playlist decisions
• Two configurable quick-route playlists
• Favorite and unfavorite controls
• Interactive playback scrubber
• Shuffle, previous, next and undo controls
• Batched sync with a clear summary
• Session history and resilient local queueing
• Secure connection restoration
• No advertising or tracking

An active Apple Music subscription may be required for full-song playback and library access.

Sortwave is an independent app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Apple.
