Appmuse

As the title says the app is great, I have been using it for a while and it doesn't disappoint. It's easy to create smart playlists and the formatting of the app is good. The only reason I am not leaving a 5-star review is there is no rule to prevent duplicating songs from appearing in a playlist. Show more

As someone with years’ worth of accumulated metadata I have always got a lot of value out of the smart lists from this app, but I think a good test of its value is that my kids, who don’t necessarily care that “old school” tuning of information, also really like being able to build dynamic playlists.

I wouldn’t be subscribed to apple music without this.

My main reason for getting this app was to consolidate music “in my library” with music “not in my library” (since my experience with the Apple Music app has been buggy and incomplete). First I tried just selecting “All Music” which (after a few minutes of waiting) generated a playlist of 110,000 songs, which means that part worked! Sadly when I hit the shuffle button, it simply failed to play. I assume this is a bug in Apple Music, not in the app. I was able to use the smart filters to create a 1000 song randomized playlist, though, which means I have a way around it at least by creating a new randomized playlist each session/day. If it was possible to handle this automatically somehow (only open the maximum allowable playlist size in Apple a music when clicking the shuffle button), that would be an improvement, but I assume it isn’t that simple. Thanks for creating a great app! I look forward to seeing what’s in store for the future. Show more

Do you have that one app that you literally can’t do without, the one that keeps you from migrating from apple. This is that App for me. Its purpose is plain and simple take a set of rules from the user and apply them to a vast music collection and make a “smart” playlist that easily updates depending on how it’s set up. I use it to easily switch up songs from my own collection of several thousand tracks, but where it gets really interesting to me is in the time since I first picked up the app the developer has added a function so you can tell it to combine playlists from the apple community that other people are updating. So In essence I have created several genre playlists that automatically add new music from other users, and knows my favorites mixes them together and then keeps the individual tracks from repeating within 4 weeks to 6 months depending on my personal preferences… I used to create playlists by hand and the time I’ve saved with this app is a true life saver!

there is no point to this app all it does is create “mixes” for you which really just combines songs from pre-existing playlists which you can do yourself. I thought this app would add and organize songs and make good mixes but it does not. It is also hard to navigate. Do not waste your money as the only stuff it does you can easily do yourself.

I have been looking to create dynamic/smart playlists on iOS for years. After tons of fighting with synching between macOS Music/iCloud Music/iOS, I finally found Miximum. It was everything I wanted. The rules engine is fantastic, and allows for complex playlist to be created very easily. My only suggestion would be to add a rule that allows you to set the total count for an Artist. For example, I have one playlist (Metallica) that feeds into a larger playlist. Because the Metallica playlist has so many more songs, I would like to limit the number of songs from them in the new playlist. There might be a way to do this by combining different rules, but I haven’t been able to figure it out yet. That small suggestion aside, this is the best $1.99 I have spent on the App Store in years. Well worth it. Show more

I bought this to create BPM playlists. It finds ZERO songs regardless of the BPM I search for. So, it appears to be a COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY.

I like it, but…is there truly no way to delete a playlist? Why should I have to keep five versions of the same playlist as I update it?

Tired of hearing the same old songs when you shuffle with Apple Music? Then get this app. You can make smart playlists that only play songs you haven’t heard in a long time, or so many other choices. Thank you for making this happen! Show more

But... Im on Spotify now, and this doesn't do Spotify! This should be made more incredible by doing Spotify Playlists as well!

I purchased this app to make smart playlists on my iPhone (IOS15) and my iPad Pro M1 (IOS15). It will not populate the mixes (smart playlists) I created with the songs I selected using the rules Genre is Pop / Genre is Rock / Genre is Hard Rock / Genre is Metal. There is no support, no manual, no YouTube videos. Show more

I bought the app to sort through my music by BPM for exercising. I can't get any simple BPM rules to work (a lot of null results) while it seems other types of simple rules work fine. It'd be a 5 star rating if it worked as it looks like it should for BPM. Show more

This app is such a total nightmare! It’s worse than the Apple app itself! I wanted to establish different Playlists for the different genres of music that I have and this app won’t allow me to do that task. I recommend that you don’t buy this app! It’s not worth the money! It’s pure rubbish! Show more

I love using this app to play my music at work. I can create multiple playlist and make adjustments on the fly. My one request that I don’t see or can’t figure out, is an automatic way to keep songs with the same title, from the same artist, from duplicating. Show more

I downloaded this app in a hope that could listen to each song in a playlist once, like I used to do through iTunes. Being that I’ve not had a Mac in years that’s no longer possible. I am not able to do set this playback feature unfortunately. Also there’s no provision for use on the Apple Watch. But this app does allow me to set up mixes and accomplish sort of what I hoped by having a setting for “last played.” When I reverse the order I can at least hit the songs that don’t get listened to. I really like that by having that setting for multiple mixes it “holds my spot” in my mixes for each individual mix. Playing music through the native Apple app obviously it cannot “bookmark.” If there’s a way to set rules for playback not just setting up mixes that would get a 5th star. But my gratitude goes out to you for the App as it is now. So thank you. Show more

Absolute junk. No way to organize or manipulate existing playlists. This app added zero value. :(. Waste of $$.

I really like the premise of this app, and the “smart playlist” logic appears to work pretty well. Unfortunately, the app does not appear to be tracking Play Counts or Last Played dates. I’m seeing this issue in reviews for this developer’s other app, too. This would be a 5 star app if those features were working since it definitely brings MacOS “smart playlist” features to iOS. I will update my review once the dev fixes this issue. Looking forward to fully utilizing the power of this app! Show more

Can’t see what’s in a mix to know it’s not right, and it’s never right

I’m honestly surprised how great this app is. The UI is decluttered and consistent with Apple Music’s. It’s snappy and fits right into the ecosystem. The customization it gives you for playlists is unlike any other app I’ve found. There is definitely room for improvement (re-ordering rules, duplicating groups, etc) but this app is one of the main reasons I’m sticking with Apple Music instead of switching to Tidal, for example. It was so tedious manually adding songs to the several playlists they belong to, now all I have to do is add a song to my library and it’s automatically sorted into the correct mixes. As mentioned, it is definitely not without its flaws, but it’s for sure the best for what I’m looking for, as far as I’m aware. Definitely worth the couple bucks. Show more
