Krate — DJ USB Player
Your DJ USB, in your pocket
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Your whole set lives on a USB stick. Krate puts it on your iPhone.
Plug a Rekordbox-formatted USB drive into your iPhone and Krate reads it on the spot — every track, playlist, and cover, searchable in a swipe. No laptop, no cloud, no waiting.
READ YOUR DRIVE, SAFELY
• Opens the same USB drives you play on CDJs
• Full library with titles, artists, albums, and artwork
• Your Rekordbox playlists, exactly as you exported them
• Strictly read-only — Krate never writes to your drive or your Rekordbox database
PLAY IT LIKE A PLAYER
• Full-screen player with album art and living gradient backdrops
• Scrub, skip, and line up what's next with the Cue
• Keeps playing in the background, on the lock screen, and over AirPlay
TAKE IT OFFLINE
• Download tracks to your phone — they keep playing after the USB is unplugged
• Star songs, build local playlists, add custom covers
• Unplug and Krate shows just your downloads; plug back in and everything returns
MADE FOR DJS
• Preview tracks before the booth does
• Search titles, artists, and albums instantly
• Filters for downloads, starred, and more
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your music never leaves your device. An optional free account (just an email) keeps your preferences — nothing else. Delete it anytime from Settings.
Krate is an independent app, not affiliated with AlphaTheta or Pioneer DJ. Rekordbox is a trademark of its owner; Krate reads drives exported with it.
