## What is Vinylen?

A cozy place for your music.

Vinylen turns your iPhone into a beautiful record player. Choose a song, album, or personal playlist from Apple Music and watch the record spin, the tonearm move, and the sleeve follow your music.

YOUR LIBRARY, WITH A VINYL FEEL

Browse your saved Apple Music albums and playlists as a shelf of textured sleeves, or switch to a simple grid. Open a sleeve to see its tracks, then put the record on. Reorder or hide sleeves to make the shelf your own. These display choices stay in Vinylen.

FIND YOUR NEXT FAVORITE

Search the Apple Music catalog for songs and albums, return to recent choices, and add an album to your Apple Music library with Add to Shelf. Vinylen plays Apple Music directly, so the Music app does not need to stay open. Start with a song and continue into related music.

A LITTLE LISTENING SPACE

Enjoy a spinning record, moving tonearm, an optional needle sound, and Soft Glow colors inspired by artwork. Compact playback controls keep your music close as you move between Library, Player, and Search. Keep listening in the background, or choose to keep the screen awake while Vinylen is visible and playing.

VINYLEN PRO LIFETIME

An optional one-time purchase unlocks the Studio background, the small Home Screen vinyl widget, and Lock Screen playback controls on iPhone. Restore Purchases is available in Settings and on the upgrade screen. Music playback and Soft Glow remain free.

BEFORE YOU LISTEN

Apple Music playback requires an active Apple Music subscription and an internet connection. Your music-service subscription is separate from Vinylen. The iPhone app does not stream or connect to Spotify.

Vinylen respects Reduce Motion. Usage analytics is optional and off until you enable it in Settings.
