### Your albums, stacked like records.

Winyl opens on your albums, in a crate you flip through. No playlists, no shuffle, no algorithm.

Now Playing

### The cover comes first.

The artwork, large, and the controls under it. Skip a song or play it again, and the album carries on.

Albums

### Pick an album. Hear all of it.

Every album opens on its tracks, in order. Press play and it runs from the first to the last.

### On iPhone and on the web.

Your albums, history and stats are the same at [winyl.app](https://winyl.app), where they go by in coverflow on a Mac or an iPad.

### Questions

#### Is Winyl free?

Yes. Winyl is free. There is nothing to buy, on iPhone or at winyl.app.

#### Do I need Apple Music?

Yes. Winyl plays your albums on Apple Music, so you need an Apple Music subscription.

#### Does it work with Spotify?

No. Winyl works with Apple Music only. Spotify has changed its rules for developers, and an app like Winyl can no longer be built on it.

#### Is there an iPad version?

No. Winyl is made for iPhone. On iPad, open winyl.app in Safari, where your albums go by in coverflow.
