Planetary is a visually spectacular, interactive way to explore your music collection. Soar through a stunning 3D-universe randomly generated using information based on the artists and albums in your personal Apple Music collection. Planetary has been digitally remastered from the original creation by Bloom Studio, Inc and now allows you to shuffle songs, listen to albums on repeat, and create unique solar systems from your Apple Music Library. It's the Planetary some of you might have known and loved—but reimagined to function seamlessly on your updated tech. Are you ready to embark on your own interplanetary musical journey? **Please note that this updated version requires an Apple Music subscription and/or iTunes music library collection.** --- Original description from 2012 Planetary is an all-new, stunningly beautiful way to explore your music collection, available only on iPad. Fly through a 3D universe dynamically created by information about the recording artists you love. Visit planets that represent your favorite albums and control the playback of your music on iPad by browsing and selecting astronomical objects. Planetary is just the sort of science fiction experience you expect when using an object from the future like iPad. You'll want to show your friends this beautiful app. We've made it even easier to share Planetary at home; it looks incredible when you hook your iPad 2 up to a big HDTV or projector using the HDMI accessory. Planetary is the first of a new type of visual discovery app produced by Bloom Studio. In the coming months, we'll be releasing an ongoing stream of apps that let you explore and participate in social networks, video streaming services, and location-based applications in a whole new way! We're building new ways to see and communicate.

Amazing visuals (also glitched???)

I’ve been using this app for a while now, and it’s so visually stunning. It’s great for putting something on the screen while I’m listening to music and doing something else. Also SPACE IS COOL!!!Note; I’m unsure whether or not this is a glitch or I just don’t know how to bring it up, but the hud seems to have disappeared and I can’t seem to get it to appear no matter what I do. It used to appear for me before, but now I can’t get it to work. I’m on an iPad mini, not a phone.Edit; thanks so much for the reply. Your suggestion seems to have worked. ✨

Hi thanks so much for the kind review! I’m so glad you’re enjoying it. Apple keep releasing new ios versions which breaks things because the app is really old and flakey now (it’s hard to keep it working!) I also use an iPad mini and it works ok - I suspect you may have orientation lock on? Even if you haven’t, try rotating your device to portrait and back to landscape. It should make the hud reappear. I’m working on a complete remake that should make it much more stable!

I cannot believe that Planetary is finally back. I have been waiting for years hoping that someone would pick up the app and update it for modern devices. This used to be the sole way I would listen to music from my library back when I had an iPad mini. I’m so beyond overjoyed to see my old friend come home on my modern phone. I ended up losing access to the original app after my iPad went under.The familiarity of seeing your library displayed as an ambient solar system is something I’ll never get tired of. Honestly because of the memories I had with this app I would have even paid 20$ for it. (No subscriptions tho, that’s wack.)(Also portrait support would be GREATLY appreciated. Landscape makes it impossible to grab the sliders at the bottom because of the bottom of the screen acting as a home button on modern phones. That and it makes it impossible to see much.)

Thanks for the kind words. Makes it worth it :)

Really! Just download and see for yourself! Enough to say that this is my first review ever, after more than 10 years with apple. Really enjoy it with instrumental music! Maybe two improvements: 1. perspective should be avoided for spheres (they become distorted when they transit behind), and 2. that stars flares following the rhythm of music. That will be jaw dropping. Really. Congrats for this app!

I am delighted that you picked up Planetary and ran with it!This is an incredible experience for interacting with your music. I change the orientation on my iPad and phone frequently, so it would be helpful to have the app respond to the orientation changes, as well as have the option to hide the controls/have them fit in any orientation.Also, is it possible to have it play specific playlists or the whole library randomly or sequentially?

Developer Response
Thanks so much for your kind review. This version of planetary is a bit old now and so it has some limitations - orientation changes are something that had to be removed to get it working again. Just fyi I’ve been working on a new version the last few months which will support orientation changes and eventually playlists too. It’s still some time off but hopefully you’re having fun with the original while you wait :)
