Braided Playlist vs MixEar

The music's on, everyone's happy, and nobody spent five minutes arguing about what to listen to. Braided Playlist takes the playlists everyone has already put together and weaves them into one shared queue. Each person's songs rotating in turn, automatically and fairly. When you're ready to go, you're a tap or voice command away from music everyone actually wants to hear. The road trip is just a road trip. Dinner is just dinner. No one's lobbying for their playlist, nobody feels ignored, and you're not the DJ. It's also quietly something more. When you and your kid each have songs in the queue, music becomes something you share rather than negotiate. You hear what they're into. They hear what shaped you. A song comes on and there's a story behind it or a question. Those small moments have a way of adding up. Key Features: * Fair turn-taking: Every playlist gets equal time, automatically. * Apple Music Integration: Works with playlists you already have and you can send braids to the Apple Music player Queue. * Protect your Apple Music history: Setting to prevent music started by Braided Playlist from impacting your Replay, or recommendations.† * Enforce Clean lyrics: Settings enable automatic replacement of explicit songs with clean versions or omitting them completely.‡ * Smart shuffle: Rotation order is preserved.

Spend less time deciding what to listen to and more time actually together. †Requires iOS 26.4+ ‡Requires tracks to be labelled explicit in Apple Music; clean substitutions require an Apple Music subscription

Producers with great ears don't guess — they hear it. MixEar is a gym for your ears: short daily drills that train you to recognize what EQ, compression, stereo width, panning, reverb, saturation, filters and level changes actually sound like. Every question plays a loop with hidden processing. Flip between the original and the processed version as often as you like, then answer. You'll see what changed and can listen again knowing what to hear — that's where your ear learns. NINE DRILLS, THREE LEVELS EACH • EQ Band — which frequency was boosted? From 4 bands at +6 dB up to 12 bands at +3 dB • Boost or Cut — the band and the direction • Filters — high-pass or low-pass, and where • Level — how many dB louder or quieter, down to 0.5 dB • Compression — none, light, medium, heavy, then ratio ID (level-matched so you can't cheat) • Stereo Width — mono, narrow, normal, wide • Panning — where is it in the stereo field? • Reverb — dry, room, hall, plate • Saturation — clean, warm, driven BUILT FOR A DAILY HABIT • 3-minute Daily Workout weighted toward your weak spots • Streaks, daily goal, XP and ranks from Intern to Golden Ears • Level up automatically when you hit 80% accuracy • EQ weak-spot map: see exactly which frequencies fool you • Golden Ears Challenge: the same 10 questions for everyone, new every Monday.
