Discographic details checked against its App Store listing and version history (version 4.10.11) on September 13, 2026. Corrected that day: an earlier version of this page wrongly said Discographic was iPhone-only, synced one way, had limited offline access and could not sell on Discogs.
Discographic scrobbles to Last.fm. Spinstack keeps a Spin Log inside the app: every play with date, mood and notes, which feeds Vinyl DNA, Crate Dig and the Wax Timeline.
Discographic calculates your collection value and shows sales history. Spinstack adds Vinyl DNA, Sonic Connections, the Wax Timeline and Spin Reports on top of Price Watchdog.
Write a tag to a sleeve and tap it to open the record. Scan a record's surface with LiDAR on iPhone Pro or iPad Pro for an estimated condition grade. Discographic offers neither.
Discographic runs on iPhone and iPad, and on Apple silicon Macs and Vision Pro. Spinstack adds an Apple TV app for the big screen and an Apple Watch app for sessions from your wrist.
It caches everything for full offline use, it exports to Excel, it carries your full seller inventory with sales history, and its App Store privacy label says the developer collects no data at all. Both apps list records in the Discogs Marketplace from the app; the money changes hands on Discogs either way.
Both sync your Discogs collection and wantlist in both directions and both are one-time purchases. Discographic is a full Discogs client: search, marketplace pricing and sales history, selling, Excel export, Last.fm scrobbling and full offline use. Spinstack adds an in-app Spin Log, Vinyl DNA analytics, NFC tags, Groove Vision condition scanning, and apps for Apple TV and Apple Watch, for $9.99 once.
Discographic scrobbles albums and tracks to Last.fm, but it has no in-app spin log. Spinstack logs every spin inside the app with date, mood and notes, so you can see your listening habits over time.
Discographic is free to download, with one-time unlocks of $5.99 (Collector features) or $9.99 (Pro features). There is no subscription. Spinstack is also $9.99 once, with a 30-day free trial, and adds Apple TV and Apple Watch apps plus play tracking and analytics.
Yes. Spinstack syncs with your Discogs account in both directions, so your whole collection and wantlist are in the app the moment you sign in, and edits you make in Spinstack are written back to Discogs.
