SongSweep
Clean up your Apple Music library.
SongSweep 2.0 is here: a new, native design for sorting your Apple Music library, one swipe per song. Nothing gets deleted, every song can come back, and you can start for free.
Why SongSweep never deletes
Apple does not let other apps delete songs from your library. So SongSweep does the next best thing: it collects your sort-outs in one playlist.
You delete them in Apple Music yourself, whenever you are ready.
How it works
Pick where to start.
Setup starts with your own music. Then pick months, playlists, years, artists or a Smart Filter like Never Played.
Swipe through, song by song.
Right keeps. Left sorts out. Up saves a song for later, if you are not sure yet.
Your decision goes to Apple Music.
Sorted-out songs go to a playlist in Apple Music and get Suggest Less. SongSweep never deletes anything.
Changed your mind? Undo works for up to three songs in a row. Later, bring any song back from the Lists tab.
Sort your library while you drive
SongSweep runs on the CarPlay screen. Pick a playlist, a year or an artist, and SongSweep plays it.
Tap thumbs down to sort out the song that is playing. Every skip counts as Keep, also from the steering wheel. CarPlay is free, with the same daily limit as the iPhone.
