Every good recommendation dies the same way: buried in a chat, a story, a screenshot you never opened again. DigginCrate is the crate you drop them into. HOW IT WORKS 1. Share a link — from Instagram, a message, Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, anywhere — to DigginCrate. It lands in your inbox, no questions asked. 2. Dig it up. The app reads the link, suggests what the record probably is, and you confirm the match from the Apple Music catalogue. Nothing is filed behind your back. 3. Play it in your service of choice, and mark it listened. YOUR CRATE • Home shows your latest find, what you added recently, and how much you actually listened to this week. • "Drop the needle" picks something unheard when you can't decide. • The Shelf holds everything: search it, filter by listened, favorites or archive, sort by date, artist or rating. • Rate finds out of five, mark favorites, write a note, and tag them however you like. • Archive what you're done with. Delete it for good when you mean it. LISTS WORTH KEEPING • Rank your best of the year — albums and songs, separately, one list per year. • Build your own ranked lists for anything: a genre, a mood, a friend's taste. • Export a list as an image and share it. BUILT TO BE PRIVATE • No account. No sign-up. No analytics or advertising trackers. • Your finds, notes, ratings and lists stay on your device. • Identification runs on your iPhone, using Apple's on-device intelligence. GOOD TO KNOW Searching the real Apple Music catalogue needs an Apple Music account and takes one tap to connect in Settings. DigginCrate never plays music itself — it hands you off to Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music or Tidal, whichever you set as your default. The app interface is available in English, Catalan, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil), Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.
