SmartPlaylist App Reviews

Its well worth the time to learn the interface. It provides insight and focused access into large music collections. For example, you can list all highly-rated song,s in a genre, in order of least recently played (e.g. what good jazz tunes have I not played for a while). Lots of possibilities. Very nice.

No other music app lets you generate playlists with so much control, and then, switch gears to follow other avenues, like same album, genre, or composer. Thanks especially for the inclusion of composer, both in the list gen, and in the information pane! Digital audio files can contain an amazing amount of info, and most audio apps do not allow access to it (Im looking at you Apple). Yes you can search by composer in some, but you cant see the name in play mode, and long titles are often cutoff. For that reason alone, this is really the only player for classical music listeners. Smartplaylist packs an enormous amount of control into the interface, but lacks an attractive look; "Groove 2" easily wins on style. If the developer could take a cue from apps like that, this would be the one to beat. Id also like to be able to hide the left pane rules section, and be able to keep the player pane visible. In other words, separate the list gen from the play mode more. Thanks for finally making a player that lets me explore my music the way I want!

This is amazing wow

If you ever plan on playing story driven tabletop games, this is a great app (actually one Ive wanted for years). If youre willing to take the time to set grouping tags in iTunes, you can use this app to create perfect playlists on the spot for any scenario.

I know my way around a pc,Mac and iOS for all devices and still this was really way too much to take in. Dont waste space on your idevices with this app

Much better. - New iDevice and Im taking this somewhat unique app for a spin daily this past week.

I love this app. It is soooo good!!!! I cannot say enough good things. The developer is awesome, regularly issues great updates and responds to feedback. A must-buy for any music enthusiast. 5+ stars!!

This app is so powerful. It lets you create smart “automatic" play lists on the fly based on a ton of different criteria. It even has the ability to playback audio files at different speeds. This comes in handy for college lectures. Great APP! Thanks!

For years Ive been miserable over the fact that I couldnt create smart playlists on my iPhone. If only I knew this app existed sooner!!! Im shocked at what this app is capable of

Well looks like an app for engineer with clunky user interface and i cant figure out how to play the playlist or save it. Completely worthless.

If you use the menu button in the lower left and the select help from the drop down list you will see the instructions for creating and playing the playlist you generate. Its awesome once you get the handle of it.

The application takes a little while to get used to the controls and you need to read the help documentation to really get the benefits of the app. But well worth the 15 minutes or so. The latest update to iTunes has completely decimated the Smart Playlist functionality (limited sorting options and Live Updating is clunky as hell). For me, this application saved my favorite feature of iTunes. Whats even better is that you can use it straight from your devices and dont need to build a smart playlist on your computer. Only drawback is you cannot save playlists to the music player. That just proves that Apple needs to buy out this application and include this functionality with a future iOS update.

This app lets you control so many aspects of your music to make great playlists. Love the least/most played option and the songs per artist/album option. Great app, I highly recommend it.

What a great app, I can now create smart playlists directly on my phone rather than having to use iTunes on my laptop. You can do pretty much any playlist you can imagine on this app.

Ive been using this for years at this point, I think it was one of the first apps I downloaded for my iPod Touch. I use it mostly to generate random playlists of starred songs or from other larger playlists (ie. 80s music).

It only gets better! Still my most used and favorite app! (2016)

The detailed queries are unmatched by anything Ive seen. Great job!

UPDATE 04/2016 Another great update! I still use this app just about every day to listen to music at work and in the car. Powerful query tools make it really simple to quickly generate playlists based on just about any criteria.

Im amazed by how powerful it is and how efficiently it operates. I love it but I think it skipped leg day. Every part of the interface feels like an afterthought. If someone in interface development wants to see where they can take it, please let them.

This is the best playlist generator out there for iPhone. If you have a large library of music this is a must have.
