Disappointing

2024-06-25

I hope MusicSmart gets better. I don’t use Apple Music, but I bought MusicSmart based on a couple glowing reviews that said it works with your library in addition to Apple Music. It can’t find the vast majority of my library, whether downloaded from iTunes or copied from CDs. They touted that it’... Show more

Not ready for prime time app

2023-11-29

Wanted to love MusicSmart... and all the glowing reviews enticed me to give it a try...and what’s not to like...if it did what it said this would have been a stellar app... but unfortunately it didn’t deliver...have no idea why there were 5 star reviews... you can’t even search...yikes!
And the... Show more

Does not live up to it’s promises

2024-01-24

I’m not sure if my expectations were too high from all the glowing reviews, but I’m really bummed MusicSmart does not deliver. I really enjoy finding new songs in Apple Music playlists. Traditionally, I’ll hear something new and search on the internet for more info about the song and artist, usual... Show more

Definitely a 1.0 version

2024-02-27

Bought this after reading some great reviews on it. MusicSmart has huge potential but needs to be reworked. MusicSmart itself lists all albums in your Music library. Theres no way to re order them by artist or songs. No search bar. The extension portion of MusicSmart (tap the three dots when you... Show more

LINER NOTES? WE DON’T NEED NO STINKING LINE NOTES!

2024-08-28

Yes we do! That’s what I thought I was getting. The words “Liner Notes” are below the name of MusicSmart. To me, Liner Notes are what is inside the record jacket, on the record sleeve or on the back of the record jacket. Sometimes there wasn’t much but sometimes there were comments by the artists,... Show more

Good!

2024-02-15

Wish this was more integrated into Apple Music, though I certainly can't blame MusicSmart for that. Main gripe right now, is that when I click View Details on this app within apple music, it takes me to the albun page, not the song page. It should be the song, not the albun, as I'm.clicking "shar... Show more

No Liner Notes?

2024-02-15

Unless I’m having a difficult time navigating the updated app, it seems like all the actual “liner notes” are no longer available. There’s a wealth of information within MusicSmart , and it seems pretty well laid out since I was a more regular user, but the liner notes from old vinyl records that I... Show more

Liner Notes!

2024-02-23

I really wish this would work within music. The instructions shows that it will, but when I follow them I am unable to add it in the share menu. I’m on the latest iOS 14.3. I’ve tried twice by deleting and reinstalling. MusicSmart ’s settings should allow one to keep attempting, but alas... So I f... Show more

Needs more depth in Christian music

2024-02-15

As a listener of contemporary Christian music, there are a LOT of songs and albums MusicSmart doesn’t know. Many entries have nothing more than what Apple Music has. We listeners are a huge genre of lots of awesome music from Crowder to Needtobreathe to Chris Tomlin and TobyMac and I hope they inc... Show more

Great Potential

2024-02-15

I really appreciate the developer for creating MusicSmart, which addresses a glaring hole left by Apple Music. How Apple could create their extensive product catalog and simply omit all information about a given album and artist is beyond belief. For me, we should be able to find out songwriter, ... Show more

A helpful utility, with two caveats

2024-02-15

I’ve only occasionally dipped into MusicSmart for detailed information regarding my music, so I haven’t fully explored all the nooks and crannies.

At this point, I can recommend MusicSmart , but I have to mention two frustrations. #1 may be outside the developer’s control, but it’s still a... Show more

A delightful resource!

2024-10-09

Think less of this app as a standalone application, and more of an extension to Apple Music. If you start with the this app app, you’ll find the experience frustrating, as the UI and UX is pretty barebones. If you use the this app extension as you navigate through Apple Music, you’ll appreciate ... Show more

Helpful but not perfect

2025-02-07

Nice add if you use AppleMusic as your primary music source. If it ain’t in AppleMusic then MusicSmart won’t find the info.

The industry needs to get into the act and provide real liner notes and art with an album like they used to with vinyl.

Incredibly helpful and useful

2024-12-20

No database that seeks to provide information on tracks, liner notes etc. is going to be complete because the universe of albums being dealt with is so fast. However I have found MusicSmart to be really useful in so many cases. I used to have a very large CD collection which I ripped to a CD jukeb... Show more

FANTASTIC!!!!

2024-10-09

I have always been interested in the history of music releases and the artists. While Apple Music has good info it is incomplete. I have had the Discog app loaded for years to fill in the holes. MusicSmart integrates not only Discogs but several other music databases. If you have Apple music Musi... Show more

Great App!

2024-10-09

Love MusicSmart! Brings me back to when I bought physical copies of albums and would spend time going through all the lyrics and liner notes to find little nuggets of guest appearances, writers and all the other fun facts you would find. It was something I genuinely missed in this digital age of m... Show more

Incredible depth of detail

2024-09-23

I cannot speak too highly about the trove of information for just about every song that is streamable.

One improvement is to support artist lookups via Apple Music, in addition to albums and songs via the share option.

Hey just a question

2025-04-24

This may be dumb but if MusicSmart integrates with your music library like it says. If you currently have a Apple Music subscription and cancel it will it take away albums on here? Because it keeps track of your music library ,but without a music subscription will you lose the albums that are alre... Show more

Really good

2025-05-25

MusicSmart is amazing!!! I love looking at the album information and the record label the album was released on. The only thing is that the release date on the album is one day off. For example, if the album was released on june 17th 2004, on MusicSmart , for some reason it says the release date i... Show more

This Developer Changed the Way I Experience Music

2025-03-28

MusicSmart is incredible. So much attention to detail.

this app and MusicHarbor are a beautiful pair. Both help me to experience more new music and stay in the know of who is making the music behind the scenes.

Fantastic Work.

Must download if you’re a music lover!

2025-04-29

I learn new things about the songs in my library that I never knew before. It makes me feel more engaged with the music I have in my library. MusicSmart is a must download if you have a large library of music. Keep it up with the updates!

10/10

2024-06-27

this app is impressive. No one else is developing more straightforward, effective and afforable applications for music resources. Getting quick credit lines and additional corresponding information all in one search has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remeber. Highly reccomend.

Excellent app & responsive developer

2025-09-29

Such a great idea for an app, it works perfectly for me. I echo others in that the extension is where it really shines. Being able to browse liner notes right in Apple Music is perfect! Thank you Marcos also for being so quick to reply to my troubleshooting email!

Miss liner notes? Get this app!

2025-01-12

Cant recommend MusicSmart enough! Perfect for when you want to find out who’s playing on a track. Perfect for finding out when a song in a playlist was released. Dev is quick to reply to questions. Cheers!
