### 5/5 — Vinyl Collectors Dream

*2026-07-01*

This is a MUST HAVE for any serious or amateur vinyl collector looking to build their collection. Super helpful when it comes to limited/signed drops that tend to sell out quickly, you get an immediate push notification that links you directly to where it's being sold. Even better, the app is free (tips appreciated)! Couldn't recommend this app more :)

### 5/5 — Great app… but rather just buy it

*2026-06-22*

The app is awesome! Love getting all the new info on vinyls that dropped. Some are old so it’s not completely current all the time. It asks you to tip and even if you tip $40 it’s still gonna bother you to tip after a few months.

### 5/5 — Gorgeous

*2026-05-29*

Haven’t used it for too long but you can tell the creator of this app has attention to detail. This is so simple and intuitive. Great job!

### 5/5 — Best app on my phone.

*2026-05-05*

The level of excitement I feel when I get a push notification from this app is indescribable. It’s so convenient to have all my favorite artists constantly watched for new releases so I can jump on them the moment they’re available. My bank account is in danger but that’s ok.

### 5/5 — Thanks!

*2026-04-28*

A wonderful app! Very convenient and functional. It would be even better if they provided information about pre-orders, especially for limited editions or signed items. And the ability to pay and track purchases would be invaluable!

### 5/5 — Great App for Vinyl collections but…

*2026-04-09*

This app is well done. Notifications are quick and just this morning helped me snag the new Goose album. Definitely worth checking out.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-04-08*

Great app always has what I need but sometimes Vinyls that release today say yesterday.

### 5/5 — Cool app and it works well

*2026-03-29*

Yuh

### 5/5 — Love This App!

*2026-03-13*

It’s exactly what I needed to keep up with every everything music! 👍🏽

### 5/5 — Goat

*2026-03-07*

Hands down favorite app I’ve had. I’ve always thought about needing an app like this and I am beyond blessed I found this. Always right on time
