Your phone can see
the scratches.
Spinstack measures groove damage with the LiDAR sensor on iPhone Pro, then listens while a side plays and maps every mark it hears. You stop guessing what condition your records are in.
And once a record has a grade, you see what your copy is plausibly worth, not the cheapest one on the market.

A grade you typed once
is a guess wearing a uniform.
Every other vinyl app takes your word for it. Spinstack takes three measurements, then turns them into something you can act on.
Measured grade
VG
You typed VG+ in March 2019
Hover or tap a mark to inspect it.
It looks
Four macro captures, and the worst quadrant sets the estimate, because the needle hits every scratch rather than the average one. The scanner estimates a grade with a confidence level; you set the grade. Needs LiDAR: iPhone Pro or iPad Pro. Learn more ›
It listens
Scratch Detection runs during a Silent Session and confirms a mark only when it recurs across plays. Every scratch is stamped with the loudness of the music around it, so you know which marks you will actually hear.
It prices
Any record with a media grade now shows what that specific copy is plausibly worth, not just the market floor. Labelled estimates, not professional appraisals.
The Condition Card and Receipt
A shareable image with every detected scratch drawn where it actually sits in the grooves, sized and coloured by severity. The Condition Receipt, for a buyer or an insurer, is free for everyone.
The Tap Card
Tap a tagged sleeve and Spinstack answers with everything it knows about that copy on one card: pressing, grades, value, play history, the sound measured from that very copy, and its scratch map. Instantly, and entirely offline.
Ask Your Collection
Ask about your records in your own words and get an answer from your own shelves, with a receipt of what it checked. Works from Siri too. Requires Apple Intelligence.
Sonic Fingerprint
A Silent Session measures the record as it plays: tempo, key, loudness, structure and instruments, taken from the copy on your turntable rather than from a database. Requires iOS 27.
The Condition tab
A tab for record health: how many records are graded, what the ungraded ones are worth, and a queue sorted by value so the copies worth checking first come first.
Apple TV, caught up
Now Spinning fills the screen with the sleeve, a disc turning at a real 33 1/3 rpm and a running clock. Game Night is a pass-the-remote quiz built entirely from your own records, for two to eight players.
A card on a record shop counter
An App Clip for independent record stores. Scan a printed code on the counter and a store-welcomed pocket Spinstack identifies any pressing in the bins. No install, no account.

Groove Vision gets sharper
with every scan.
Groove Vision already measures a record with the camera and the LiDAR sensor. The next step is a machine learning model trained on real vinyl surfaces, so the estimate improves the more records the community scans.
A scanner that learns is a different instrument from one that does not, and nobody has built that for vinyl. Participation will be opt-in and anonymous when it ships.

On the day 1.5 shipped, Apple’s App Store editors put Spinstack in their See What’s New in iOS 27 story, and in four editorial collections alongside it.
App Store editorial, United States, September 2026. Editorial collections are curated by Apple and change over time.
"Listening to records is my favorite pastime. This app has only improved this important part of my day for me. It allows me to engage with my collection in new ways, dig into crevices I forgot I had. The fact that it is a one time purchase is so refreshing and the developer seems great. Get this if you love vinyl!!"

"An amazing app that keeps getting better. A feature rich vinyl collection management app with many unique aspects. Logging spins, scrobbling to Last.fm, writing and reading NFC tags for your collection, and Discogs Marketplace management are just a few of the features that set this app apart from the others. The developer is incredibly responsive and has a true desire to create an app that is useful to the vinyl community."

"Been using app for my collection and it's been amazing. From the interface to the insane insights section. The price watchdog is set up nicely for great details on my collection. Lots of great things done in a short amount of time. Can't wait to see what's coming next!"

"Love the layout of this app and how similar to Apple UI it is. I like it much better than the iOS Discogs application. Priced very fairly. The other competitor application is wildly more money than this, and this arguably has more features. Great app, hope to see it continue to get updated!"
