## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.17 — 2026-09-07

This update adds a full Library Tools suite plus CSV/JSON playlist import and export.

• Library Tools: scan your whole library at once from Multiple Playlist Actions — find duplicate songs and duplicate playlists, dead (unplayable) tracks, orphaned songs, empty or oversized playlists, and explicit content, plus a genre/era/play-count breakdown of your library.
• Consolidate multiple playlists into one, or remove a song from every playlist it's in, in a single pass.
• Export any playlist to CSV or JSON, and import one back in — matched against your library and Apple Music's catalog.
• On iPad, drag and drop a CSV or JSON file straight onto the Playlists tab to import it.

### 1.0.16 — 2026-08-28

Merging playlists now shows you exactly which tracks overlap before you commit, expand the collision preview to see what will be combined into one.

Various stability improvements.

### 1.0.15 — 2026-08-16

New in this version:

  - Get alerted when songs are removed from your playlists.
  - Choose which playlists you want alerts for, with quick Select All and Select None controls.
  - Manage removed-song alerts anytime in Settings.

### 1.0.14 — 2026-08-01

Bulk Song Actions
Open any playlist's Actions and switch to Multiple Songs to hand-pick a batch of tracks, then copy, move, or remove them all in one go — no more deleting songs one at a time.

Fixes and improvements
• Large playlists open noticeably faster instead of stalling while they load.
• Edits attempted without a connection now tell you they failed, rather than looking like they worked.
• Clearer results when removing songs, clearing duplicates, and replacing dead tracks, including when a move only half-completes.

### 1.0.13 — 2026-07-26

Restore Deleted Playlists

Deleted a playlist by accident? iOS has no recycle bin for playlists, but if
TuneWarden backed it up, you can now rebuild it in a single tap.

Open the backup in History, preview which of its songs can be matched back to
your library, and restore. The backup reconnects to the new playlist and keeps
its full change history, so nothing is left orphaned or duplicated.

Playlist Health Check

Score any playlist at a glance and see what's dragging it down, duplicate
songs, tracks you've never played, and playlists that have gone stale. Health
Check is now the first action on every playlist.
