Your next great listen

Keep a recommendation, remember where it came from and work through it at your own pace. To Listen, Listened and Want to Own are separate shelves. Tap a destination below a record to move it immediately; Undo restores the change. Playback does not automatically mark a record as listened. You can add music, notes and sources manually and use your saved library without an Apple Music subscription, microphone access or Apple Intelligence.

Add a link or text

Choose Add Music and paste an Apple Music link, a readable article link or music recommendations in the same field. For a list, use one Artist — Album per line. An identified single song or album offers Save and, when available, Play. Lists become listening projects that preserve their source and order. Matching continues after saving. Add manually lets you enter a title, artist, source and note directly.

Add from Photos and Choose image files accept covers and player screenshots. On iPhone and iPad, Take Photo opens the camera. Review the result before saving; uncertain identities say Check artist and title. Save for Review keeps the source image and opens its review, with ready and needs-help counts. Rejecting camera access leaves Photos, files and manual entry available. New discoveries appear at the top of your library.

Find the right edition

The original recommendation stays intact when an Apple Music edition is attached. One safely equivalent result can match automatically; meaningful differences require your choice. Unmatched music stays in your library. Under Want to Own, choose Vinyl, CD, Cassette or Any physical format. Find physical edition searches MusicBrainz and lets you save a particular release with available country, label, catalog number and barcode information. A catalog match does not verify the condition or identity of a physical copy you own.

Share to your inbox

Use Share in Safari, Photos or another app and choose Save to Bucketlist (PX7 Music Bucketlist on iPhone and iPad). On Mac you may need to enable it under Edit Extensions in the sharing menu. Saving is immediate; open Bucketlist to process queued items. iOS may also allow background processing, but its timing is controlled by the system. Failed imports stay available for Retry. Undo Import removes the import while preserving records you subsequently edited or heard.

Listening projects and missing recommendations

Projects keep a source list in its original order, show how many records you have heard and offer the next unheard recommendation. Use Mark heard to record your progress. Missing or uncertain entries remain visible for Review; you can identify them or exclude them from progress. Counts describe source coverage, not guaranteed Apple Music availability. The app preserves incomplete results instead of inventing missing music.

A website may block access or limit what can be read. If import fails, paste the relevant recommendations or add the music details manually and retain the source link. Supported collections may follow a limited number of same-site pages, but pagination and completeness are not guaranteed for every site. The app does not bypass paywalls. Projects, repairs and heard history sync through your private iCloud library.

Playback and recognition

Playing catalog music inside the app needs an Apple Music subscription, an internet connection and permission. Catalog availability depends on your region. The active row shows Pause while playing and Resume when paused. Play Next Discovery starts an unheard item from your library or continues a project; playback still needs a compatible catalog match. Recognize music uses Shazam and microphone permission. If permission is denied, you can still use Add Music and the rest of your saved library. Manage permissions in device Settings.

AirPlay and audio output

Use the AirPlay button in the compact or expanded player on iPhone and iPad. On Mac, use Audio Output in the toolbar or player. The Mac picker changes the system output; if an AirPlay receiver is missing, connect it in Control Centre and refresh the app’s output list.

Device requirements

PX7 Music Bucketlist supports iPhone and iPad on iOS or iPadOS 26 or later, and Mac on macOS 26 or later. Apple Intelligence is optional and depends on supported hardware, language and regional availability. Structured music lists, local image text recognition and manual entry do not require it. Photo recognition can still need online catalog evidence and may need your help. Catalog matching, article reading, Shazam and streaming need a network connection. Saved lists, notes and status remain available offline.

Your library

One library is shared across iPhone, iPad and Mac using the same iCloud account. Open the app on each device to sync albums, songs, shelves, notes and sources. Changes are saved locally first, so you can continue offline. Tap the iCloud icon for status, Sync Now, pause or recovery of removed records. Previous notes appear in record details. If you change iCloud accounts or remove the cloud library, sync pauses until you choose what to do. Playback and audio output are controlled separately on each device. iCloud availability and storage limits apply.

Share a recommendation

Use Share Music in record details or its context menu to share artist, title, type and an Apple Music link or search fallback. Private notes and shelf status stay out of the shared text. A next-discovery widget and Shortcuts provide quick access to Add Music, Recognize Song and Play Next Discovery.
