Offline Music Together turns the songs and clips already on your iPhone into a private, offline music library — no account, no streaming, no internet required. Add your own audio and video from Photos or Files, and the app keeps it ready to play anywhere: on a plane, underground, or anywhere your signal drops. Background playback means the music keeps going while you switch apps or lock your phone. VIDEO INTO MUSIC Pull the audio track out of any video you own and add it straight to your music library — the original video is never touched. Perfect for turning a saved clip or home video into a song you can play in the background. SOUND STUDIO Shape how every track sounds with a 5-band equalizer, reverb, and pitch control, built-in presets, and the option to save your own. Dial in a custom sound per track or apply it across your whole library. BUILT FOR YOUR LIBRARY - Playlists and Favorites to organize music your way - Queue management — Play Next or Add to Queue from any song - Waveform scrubbing for precise seeking - Duplicate detection so you don't import the same video twice - Fast search across your whole library - Light and dark appearance, tuned for iPhone PRIVATE BY DESIGN Offline Music Together has no server. Everything — importing, converting, playing — happens entirely on your device. Your media, titles, and listening history never leave your iPhone, and the app includes no analytics, ads, or tracking of any kind.

Sparsi is a straightforward music player for the audio files you already own. Import songs directly from the Files app — no syncing, no cloud account, no subscription. Everything plays from your device, offline, exactly as you'd expect from a local player. IMPORT YOUR WAY Bring in audio files from Files, iCloud Drive, or any Files-connected storage provider. Sparsi reads the embedded tags automatically so your library is organized from the moment it lands. EDIT METADATA Fix a wrong title, artist, or album — or add artwork from your photo library — right inside the app. Sparsi keeps the original file tags untouched on disk, so edits are always non-destructive and can be reset back to the source at any time. BUILD PLAYLISTS Group songs into playlists, reorder them, and pick custom cover art. Your playlists live alongside your library, always a tab away. BROWSE AND SEARCH Sort your library by title, artist, album, or date added. Search finds a track in seconds, even in a large collection. PLAYBACK THAT STAYS OUT OF YOUR WAY Lock-screen and Control Center controls, background audio, a persistent mini-player, shuffle, repeat (off/all/one), and position memory so playback picks up exactly where you left off — even after the app was closed. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Sparsi doesn't require an account and doesn't stream anything to a server. Your library stays in your device's storage. Photo library access is used only if you choose artwork for a playlist — nothing is uploaded anywhere. Sparsi is built for anyone who already has an audio collection and just wants a fast, uncluttered way to listen to it.
