Record Picker for Mac

The calm, native way to catalog your vinyl and decide what to spin tonight.

Record Picker brings your record collection to the Mac with a fast catalog, a mood-driven recommendation engine, and automatic critical-review enrichment, all in a clean, native SwiftUI app.

No ads, no tracking, no subscription. Your library syncs privately across Mac, iPhone, and iPad through iCloud.

Catalog, beautifully

Browse your collection as a zoomable cover mosaic or a sortable list. Edit any field inline: title, artist, genres, tags, year, format, label, country, notes, and custom covers.

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.

Pick a record by mood

Type a moment, such as rainy Sunday afternoon, electro night, or Britpop. Mood Pick recommends the right album from your shelves and avoids repetition.

Highlights

  • Automatic critical reviews. Fill in critical notes from Apple Music Editor's Notes, Last.fm, Wikipedia, and Discogs. Choose the source order, combine sources, and protect hand-written reviews.
  • Keep your library clean. A Data Quality panel flags duplicates, missing covers, years, formats, genres, reviews, and more, with 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. Record Picker is localized in 25+ languages.

Requirements

  • macOS 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.
