Record Picker for Mac
The calm, native way to Catalogue your vinyl and decide what to spin tonight.
Record Picker brings your record collection to the Mac with a fast Catalogue, a mood-driven recommendation engine, and automatic critical-review enrichment, all in a clean, native SwiftUI app.
Free for up to 100 records. A one-time Pro purchase unlocks an unlimited collection on Mac, iPhone and iPad. No ads, no tracking, no subscription; your library syncs privately through iCloud.
Find anything, instantly
Full-text search includes a live results navigator, highlighted matches, and step-by-step browsing. Eight one-click sections are wired to Command-1 through Command-8, with a fully customizable toolbar.
Pick a record by mood
Type a moment, such as rainy Sunday afternoon, electro night, or Britpop. Mood Pick weighs genres, dates, review keywords, and recent history, using on-device Apple Intelligence with a local fallback.
Highlights
- Automatic critical reviews. Fill in critical notes from Apple Music Editor's Notes, Last.fm, Wikipedia, TheAudioDB, The Guardian and Genius. Discogs remains a metadata source only. Reorder sources, combine them and protect hand-written reviews.
- Keep your library clean. Data Quality flags ten kinds of gaps, including covers, tracks, year, labels, genres, format, country, barcode, and reviews, with a review keyword index plus one-click and bulk fixes.
- Listen anywhere. Open any album on Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, Qobuz, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, or SoundCloud straight from the record card.
- Statistics and insight. See top artists, labels, years, and formats, with optional narrative analysis powered by Apple Intelligence.
- Private by design. SwiftData and CloudKit keep your collection, custom covers, and history in sync across your devices with no account and no third-party server.
- Import and backup. Import from CSV, including Discogs-compatible files, then back up and restore as JSON. The Mac app is localized in English, French, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Japanese, and Korean.
Requirements
- macOS 26.0 or later, on Apple silicon and Intel.
- Apple Music review enrichment requires an Apple Music subscription and authorization.
- Last.fm enrichment uses a free personal API key.

Clearer navigation, Mac keyboard shortcuts and more reliable Apple listening synchronisation complete this update.
- Collection GraphOn Mac and iPad, an interactive view reveals connections between works, composers, performers, conductors, ensembles and editions. The graph is calculated locally from your records and never changes their data.

- Add a new record by scanning its barcodeTo add a new record on Mac, scan its EAN or UPC barcode with the Mac camera or an iPhone through Continuity Camera. Recognition happens locally, then you review the proposed details before creating the entry.
