Simply Sounds

Simply Sounds pulls your whole audio collection together by scanning your device for sound files, from uploaded tracks and voice memos to stuff like album covers and sheet music. It all lands in one library, and you can group things into albums or build your own playlists to suit however you like to listen.

Browsing is easy thanks to the colour-coded tiles, which let you tell apart albums, standalone recordings, and playlists at a glance. It keeps things playful and simple, so organising your music and hitting play is never a hassle.
