Built for refined taste

Every list, filter, and gesture is designed to put you in control of your library.

Uncluttered lists

Picky keeps your Artists and Albums lists tidy by hiding those with only a few songs — simply adjust the filters to taste.

Swipe to queue

Queue up tracks to play later: swipe left on a song until the “+” turns solid orange, then let go to add it to the queue.

Picklists

Quickly play or queue groups of songs — like playing an album without its bonus tracks.

Sort your way

Sort the Albums list and each artist’s albums with a couple of taps — by title, release date, duration, or date added.

Filter by genre

Filter Songs and Albums by one genre or many. Open the filter, tap a few genres, close it, and hit Shuffle for an instant mix.

Smart grouping

Picky combines grouping by artist and by album artist, so songs are always where you expect — or pick just one grouping in Settings.

Fast search

Search across your entire library in a few taps — and even find albums by year — then play, shuffle, or queue the results.

At home on iOS

Designed for iOS 15 with widgets, Dark Mode, Split View, AirPlay 2, trackpad and Context Menu support, VoiceOver, and headphone remotes.

Your whole library

Works with iTunes Match and Apple Music added to your collection. Use Picky on its own or switch seamlessly with the Music app.
