Make room for music. Vinyl Room gives listening a little more presence: a record on the platter, a tonearm under your finger and a calm desk made your way. A TURNTABLE YOU CAN TOUCH Press the power button, lower the needle and watch the record turn. Explore a real-time 3D room with adjustable lighting, reflective metal and five base finishes: porcelain, sage, graphite, leather and wood. The 3D room requires iOS or iPadOS 18 or later. READY WHEN YOU ARE Start with ten included jazz and lounge recordings by Kevin MacLeod. They play offline, with the next record following in collection order. Bossa Antigua is cued at launch. No account is needed for the included collection. SEARCH OR PASTE Tap the YouTube search button to enter an artist, a song or a video link. Use + to paste several links. YouTube plays through its visible official video player in both 2D and 3D, subject to video availability. MAKE THE DESK YOURS Choose five 2D turntables, mix different tonearms and buttons, and soften the background with pastel colours. Save favourites, arrange the 2D desk cards, set a sleep timer or hide the panels for a focused view. Included music needs no video window; YouTube keeps a visible player. MADE FOR IPAD AND IPHONE A spacious tablet layout and a compact phone layout. Free, with no subscription or in-app purchases. YouTube requires internet and may show ads. Some videos cannot be embedded. YouTube pauses when its window is hidden or covered. All playback pauses when the app becomes inactive or the device locks. No background playback or YouTube downloads. Included recordings are licensed under CC BY 4.0, with credits in the app. Vinyl Room is made by Sfoor Labs and is not affiliated with or endorsed by YouTube or Google.
