## What is Wavehouse?

Wavehouse keeps your own music with you. Save it once, and listen anywhere.

• Your music, in your pocket
Save songs, or whole folders, from the shared folders on your NAS or computer. Saved songs play without a connection, wherever you are. You can also add songs from the Files app.

• Play before you save
Songs on a connected source play right away, without saving them first. Try a song, then save the ones you love.

• A library organized by tags
Browse your saved songs by song, artist, album, genre or folder. Japanese tags and sort-reading tags are supported.

• Daily mixes
Every day, Wavehouse creates a mix of the songs you listen to most, plus mood mixes like "Upbeat" and "Chill" made by analyzing your songs.

• Playlists and history
Make playlists from your saved songs and see your most-played songs.

• Podcasts
Search and subscribe to shows. Stream episodes, or save them to listen without a connection. Browse top shows and categories.

• Widget
Open what you played recently, from albums and playlists to mixes and podcasts, right from your Home Screen.

Formats: MP3, AAC, ALAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF
Sources: shared folders on a NAS or computer (SMB 2.x), the Files app
