Eliminating Album Decision Paraylisis. The shelf is for remembering that one album you've been wanting to listen to, but didn't have a place to put. You can think of it as a "queue" of sorts, where you save all the records your friends have been telling you about. You can also save albums you love, rate them, add notes, and keep your own personal listening history journal. Features: - Add albums to your personal "Up Next Queue" or "No Skips" list (for storing all of your favorites) - Switch between both lists on the home page and tap the dice to fetch a new album - Filter by genre so you always find the perfect album for that moment - Write reviews and personal notes to store in "The List," an journal of your own personal listening journey - Optional Spotify integration a very tiny passion project made with love for his best friends by jack henry
