Why Pocket Disc

Streaming apps play their catalog.Pocket Disc plays yours.

Recordings of your kids singing, audio for class, and old favorites from your CDs don’t fit in a streaming app. Pocket Disc organizes them into albums on your phone, ready to play.

Plays offline

No signal, still playing

It isn’t streaming, so there’s no buffering and no cellular data. On a plane, in a tunnel, or camping in the mountains, just open the app and play.

  • No internet neededYour music files are stored on your phone, and playback never goes online.
  • Keeps playing on the Lock ScreenIt keeps playing in the background, and repeat and shuffle are each one tap away.
  • Play on HomePod at homeTap AirPlay at the bottom right of Now Playing to send music to a HomePod or speaker.
With no Wi-Fi or cellular signal in the status bar, the app is still playing “Off on a Picnic”

FAQ

Before you download

Have another question? Write to us:

Can I really listen without internet?

Yes. Your music files are stored on your phone, so playback never needs a connection, even in Airplane Mode. You only need a connection to add music: Wi-Fi Transfer needs your computer and phone on the same Wi-Fi network, and Add from Link needs internet access.

Do I need to pay or sign up?

No. Pocket Disc is free to download, with no account to create and no monthly fee. Install it and start organizing your music.

What music can I add, and who can I share it with?

Pocket Disc is a player for your own music, and the app doesn’t provide any music. Please add only music you own or have the right to use, such as your own recordings or songs imported from your CDs. Before you share music with your family, make sure its license allows it. The app also reminds you before you share.

Can I download songs from YouTube or Spotify?

No. Add from Link is only for files you own or have the right to use, such as music files stored in Google Drive or Dropbox. Content on streaming services such as YouTube and Spotify is protected by their terms of use, so the app rejects these links.

Does sharing an album need the internet?

Not with AirDrop: just bring the two phones close together. You can also send the shared file with Messages or another messaging app, or save it with Save to Files.

What does my family receive?

A file named “Album Name.musicbox” that contains the album’s songs, track order, artwork, and lyrics. They open it with Pocket Disc and tap Import. If they already have an album with the same name, the songs are added to it and duplicates are skipped.

Can I share with someone who doesn’t have the app?

Yes. Touch and hold a song, choose Share, then tap I Understand, Share Audio File. They’ll receive a regular audio file, such as an MP3, that plays in most music players.

Which audio formats are supported?

MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV, AIFF, FLAC, and CAF. Lyrics files in .lrc or .txt format are supported too: put each one in the same folder as its song, with the same file name, and they’re matched automatically.

Is Wi-Fi Transfer secure?

Your phone receives files only while the Wi-Fi Transfer screen is open, and stops when you close it. The address includes an access code that’s different every time, so other people on the same Wi-Fi network can’t upload without it. Only music and lyrics files are accepted.

Is my music uploaded to the cloud?

No. All your music stays on your phone. The app doesn’t require an account and doesn’t collect any personal data.

Which devices are supported?

iPhone and iPad with iOS 17 or iPadOS 17 or later.
