Play List Mixer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Playlist Mixer is an app for creating custom playback queues by combining playlists, artists, and albums from your Music library. Choose two lists and extract songs using A∩B, A-B, B-A, or A∪B conditions. For example, you can play only songs that are both in a playlist and by a specific artist, or songs that are in one album but not in another list. Created queues can be played in order, shuffled, reordered, edited by removing songs, and saved inside the app. The currently playing song is also highlighted in the queue. Playlist Mixer is a simple, smart companion app for anyone who wants more freedom when mixing their music library.
