Never lose a good track. You hear it in a set, on a tracklist, in a friend's playlist — and a week later, gone. Screenshot somewhere. Mental note nowhere. Forgotten. CatchIt! is for DJs who refuse to lose one. Tap Shazam at a show. Forward an Apple Music, SoundCloud, Spotify or Youtube URL. Whatever the source, every catch lands in your CatchIt! library. WHAT YOU GET ON iOS • Live Shazam capture • Share Extension — save tracks from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, SoundCloud • Siri Shortcut — "Add discovery to CatchIt!" — hands-free at the booth • Full session history, exportable. • Background sync to your CatchIt! account FROM THE FOUNDER I built CatchIt! because I was tired of stacking screenshots and buying tracks I'd already evaluated three times. I use it every day.
