About

ONGA

Read full description

ONGA is where you keep the gigs you've been to. Add a show and the setlist is already there โ€” every track, in order, encores included. TRACK BY TRACK Rate the night track by track. Write notes and share them with your friends. ALBUM BY ALBUM ONGA breaks the setlist down by album and shows you the split at a glance โ€” four off the new record, six off the one that made you a fan, one deep cut nobody saw coming. Tap any album to see exactly which of its tracks were played that night. A COLLECTIBLE FOR EVERY GIG Every show becomes a visual you compose yourself: choose the artwork, choose the logo. Keep it, or send it wherever you want. GOING TO A SHOW? Add it before the date and ONGA gives you the likely setlist, based on what the artist has been playing lately. Afterwards, the real one takes its place on its own. YOUR PHOTOS The shots you took, and the ticket if you kept it. They stay private. YOUR HISTORY Every gig in one place โ€” search it, sort it, and watch the count of shows and artists grow behind you.

Read full description

WaxTap helps collectors turn physical albums into tap-to-play music shortcuts. Search for an album, confirm the YouTube playback target, then write a simple NFC tag that can live on a record sleeve, CD case, shelf label, or card. After that, tapping the tag opens the encoded playback link without needing to search again. Features: - Search for albums from your iPhone - Confirm the playback target before writing - Write a single NFC URL record to compatible tags - Use inexpensive NFC stickers, cards, and labels - Keep physical music displays connected to quick digital playback WaxTap is built for vinyl collectors, music fans, DJs, shops, and anyone who wants a cleaner bridge between a physical library and streaming playback. Requires an iPhone with NFC writing support and compatible writable NFC tags. Playback availability depends on the selected YouTube result and the apps or browser available on the tapping device.
