Built by record collectors, for record collectors. No bloat, no social feed, no ads. Just search, identify, and log records — quickly enough to use in a busy record store. Key features: * SEARCH FAST Look up releases by catalog number, barcode, or free text. Instant local search across your cached collection runs in parallel with the Discogs API. * KNOW WHAT YOU OWN Owned releases are highlighted at the top of every search result.

Find that pressing variation you've been hunting. * BARCODE SCANNER Use your iPhone camera to scan a record's barcode and jump straight to the matching Discogs release. * ADD ON THE SPOT Log a new record with media condition, sleeve condition, and personal notes — all in a few taps. Set defaults for the folder and conditions you use most. * POWERFUL FILTERS Narrow down releases by format, size (12", 7", 10"), year, country, and label. Multi-select everything. * YOUR COLLECTION, YOUR WAY Browse your full collection in list or grid view. Sort by artist, year, or title.
