Screenshots
** Featured on MacStories, 9to5Mac, MacMagazine & more! **
MusicSmart shows credits and additional details for albums and songs available in your Apple Music, Spotify, or local music library.
Discover who makes your favorite songs, from writers and producers to engineers and other collaborators. Go further with details about the artist, popular songs from the album's collaborators, samples, interpolations and remixes used, and movies/TV shows in which they participated.
MusicSmart integrates with your music library* and gathers music knowledge from different sources, aggregating them into an easy-to-use app. It also offers a handy Action Extension on iOS and iPadOS that you can use from the Music app to read the details about the currently playing song. You can also use Shazam to see the liner notes of songs playing around you.

• Album cover in high-resolution (3000x3000)
• Release date and the list of genres

* MusicSmart supports your local music library, Apple Music, or Spotify account. You can use it as long as your music library is accessible via the Music app. No Apple Music or Spotify subscription is required.
** The amount of information available for each album and song depends on the data sources used by MusicSmart. Certain musical genres, such as Jazz and Classical, may not have many details available.
*** The Action Extension only works with albums and songs from Apple Music at the moment. But you can use the main app to get the same details about your local, non-Apple Music albums and Spotify albums.
What’s New
• Added support for Drag & Drop, a new way to integrate MusicSmart with the Music app. Quickly read liner notes by dragging and dropping from Music into MusicSmart.
• Added ‘Description’ as an available attribute of the Get Attribute shortcuts action.
