All the music in the world.

Infinite music. No filter. Streaming gave you every album ever recorded. Most likely more than you will be able to play. What will you play tonight?

The library is a lot.

The same 10 albums, on a loop. You save records with intent and a week later they're lost in the pile. So you put on something safe. Again.

Getting started is as easy as

Connect Apple Music.

Apple Music is a great music subscription service and iOS native app. It's available standalone or bundled with Apple One. Music for Now connects to it in one tap: we read your library, your favorites, and some of your listening history. And we keep it in sync.

Shape your collection.

A few taps here and there, during playback or whenever you feel like it, and your library starts working for you. Everything you do feeds back into what the app surfaces next.

Player screen showing album rating with Good, Great, Best options

Rate. Favorite the albums and songs you love. Some are just better than others, and progressive rating lets you express that.

Album detail showing track list with song rating icons

Stage. Give albums an intent: you wanna play it, you're actively playing it, or kind of finished with the record. Active ones stay front and center. Productivity meets the fun.

Player showing artist affinity controls — Interested, Like, Love and Spotlight, Cooldown options

Fine-tune. Show your love by spotlighting an album to boost it, or cooling one down so you don't overplay it and can listen for longer overall. Describe how you feel about each artist.

Play your collection.

The right music is one tap away. Pick a way in: a single album, your favorite songs, or a mix of what you're exploring. The app builds the queue around what you actually want to hear right now.

Play Now screen showing a single album card with Play and Next buttons

Albums. Your most relevant albums shows up first. They are often the right choice and if you're not in a mood, just try with next one.

Favorites play mode showing a song list with Play and Remix buttons

Favorite Songs. Songs you've marked good, great, and best become a mix that does not disappoint nor annoy you.

Album Mix play mode showing three album covers with Play and Remix buttons

Album Mix. A mix created from up to three related albums for a more focused playlist. Remix to your current taste.

That's about it. More awaits in the app. Less browsing, better plays. No matter how big your collection is.

Just press play.

But first, press Download.
