Your commute deserves a better soundtrack. Tunelapse builds a personalized queue of music and podcasts that fits your commute almost to the minute — so your last song ends as you pull in, not twenty minutes after. SET YOUR COMMUTE Enter your route and how you travel — drive, train, bus, bike, or walk — and Tunelapse calculates your commute time. Save up to 10 commutes and switch between them anytime. DIAL IN YOUR MIX Spin the listening wheel: Only Music, Mostly Music, Balanced, Mostly Podcasts, or Only Podcasts. Tell Tunelapse your favorite artists, genres, podcasts, and categories once — every queue after that is yours. BUILD YOUR QUEUE One tap and Tunelapse assembles the perfect queue, filling your commute with real songs from Apple Music and fresh episodes from your favorite shows. Watch it come together on the highway timeline, then hit play. MADE FOR THE ROAD • CarPlay: your queue, commutes, and Now Playing on your car's display • Live Activity: track progress from your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island • Smart variety: every rebuild mixes things up, and podcast episodes you've already heard stay out of your queue • Export music queues to Apple Music as playlists • History: replay or rebuild any past queue WORKS WITH APPLE MUSIC Full songs require an Apple Music subscription. No subscription? Tunelapse still builds your queue and plays 30-second previews, and podcasts always play in full. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your routes, preferences, and history stay on your device. Tunelapse collects no data. Set it up once. Every commute after that is one tap.

AniPlaylist's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
