Wave is a place to track the albums you love and see what your friends are listening to. Rate any album out of 10, add it to your collection, and build up a record of your taste over time. Your profile becomes a real picture of your musical identity — not a playlist, not a queue, but the albums that actually stuck with you. The social side is simple: follow your friends, see their ratings and reviews in your feed, and find your next favorite record through someone who actually listened to it. No algorithms deciding what you should hear next. Just people with taste, sharing what they're into. Wave is for people who listen to albums the whole way through. Who care about the track order, the production, the moment an album clicks. If you've ever wanted to remember exactly when you first heard something — or find out what your friend has been obsessed with lately — this is where that lives. Wave also lets you log concerts and music videos, adding another layer to your listening profile. Free to download. Sign in with Apple, Google, or email.
