Changelog

Localization plus a much smarter genre engine.

New

• Full localization — the app is now available in German, French, and Spanish in addition to English.

Improved

• More accurate genre search. Artists are now matched by confirmed Apple Music IDs instead of by name. Previously a same-named artist from a completely different genre could slip into a playlist — for example, a niche hardcore act colliding with a famous pop or electronic act of the same name. Each artist is now resolved to a verified Apple Music ID, so the right one is matched. In benchmark testing, on-genre accuracy across decided tracks rose from about 81% to about 98% — and from about 60% to 100% for hardcore specifically.
• Daily genre refresh. Genre lists now update every day, so newly added artists and genres show up faster.
• Reproducible "last N days" windows. Release-radar-style playlists (7 / 30 / 90 days) now produce consistent, repeatable results.
• Faster sync overall.
• Cleaned-up settings screen.
• Easier suggestions. The "suggest an artist or genre" email now includes a direct Apple Music link, so suggestions are quicker to act on.

Fixed

• Interrupted background syncs now resume reliably when you reopen the app, instead of stalling or starting over.
• Cancelling a sync now stops progress immediately.
• The ad banner clears right after you subscribe and no longer flashes briefly on launch for subscribers.
• The Lock Screen / Dynamic Island Live Activity now resumes correctly when the app is closed mid-sync, and no longer shows a false "sync interrupted" warning.
• The "sync complete" notification no longer pops up over a screen you're already working in.
• Corrected track counts that could drift on the overview screen.
• Some genre searches that previously returned no tracks (for example, certain hardcore and Frenchcore styles) now return the right results.

Known limitations

• Search is artist-based; searching by track title is not yet supported.
• The app manages only playlists it created; it does not edit your existing Apple Music playlists.
• Background sync is most reliable with the app open and the screen active — battery optimization can end long background runs early on large artist lists.
• Niche, regional, or very new genres may not always be found.

Initial release.

New

• Create Apple Music playlists from rules: filter by genre, artist, date range, or title keywords.
• Include and exclude rules.
• Time windows: All Time, a specific year, or a rolling window (7 / 30 / 90 days).
• Caps on total tracks and on per-artist track counts.
• Shuffle or chronological sort.
• Multiple independent playlists, each with its own rules.
• iCloud sync across devices.
• Background sync with completion notifications.
• Built-in curated list of about 70 genres with hand-picked artists (works offline, no account); MusicBrainz fallback for genres outside the list.
• Free with a small banner ad; a subscription (monthly or yearly) removes ads.
