Half-star ratings
A 3.5 is not a 4. Rate honestly, change your mind later, and see how your stars compare.
A music diary for every genre
For the record, it's a five.
Search any album, from Afrobeats to Baroque. Rate it in half stars, log the day you heard it, say what it meant, and shelve it in a Crate that looks like your record collection.
Everything you hear, written down
Your taste, on the record.
Every album in the catalog, every genre counted. The diary is yours; the community is there when you want it.
A diary of listens
Log the date, a few words and some tags. Backdate old favorites. Relistens count.
The Crate
Your records on wooden shelves, or flip through them like a crate at a record store.
Genre Passport
21 genre families to stamp, from gospel and K-pop to film scores and amapiano.
Your year in sound
Months, top artists, top genres, rating spread and listening streaks, all from your own logs.
Friends and taste match
Follow people, like their reviews, and see who rates the way you do.
The Crate
A record collection that looks like one.
Every album you log or save slides onto the shelf with its record peeking out of the sleeve. Switch to Dig and flip through them one by one. Tap a record to pull it out.
Say what it meant
Reviews worth sharing.
Play a preview, rate it, write it down. Every listen becomes a card you can post to your story, and every review can stay private if you want.
Four looks
Pick the era you grew up in.
