NEW • Sound analysis on iPhone. With Pro, your iPhone analyzes your music for Mixes itself, no Mac needed. Turn on "Analyze my music" on the Mixes screen or in Library settings, then tap Analyze now and follow it in the app or on the Lock Screen, or leave it to run while your iPhone is locked and charging. With Sync, tracks your other devices already analyzed are skipped, and what your iPhone analyzes reaches them too. IMPROVED • Filter History and Bookmarks. Find a play or a bookmark by track, album or artist name. History searches everything you've played, not just what's on screen. • Sound analysis keeps cool. It pauses while your iPhone runs too hot and carries on once it cools down. • Update notice. Sonarch tells you when a newer version is on the App Store.

NEW • Mixes. A new tab that takes you on an endless journey through your own music, each track leading to one that sounds like it. Play a ready mix, named after its artists, or start one from any track's menu. Drift wanders as near or as far as you like, up to Contrast, where each track is clearly unlike the last; Similar holds one mood. Narrow a mix to the artists or genres you choose, save it, and come back where you left off. A Loved mix plays your loved tracks. Mixes come from your Mac, which analyzes 30 seconds of every track to find what sounds alike; with Sync, they arrive here. IMPROVED • Albums can be narrowed to several artists at once, and an artist now includes everything they're credited on, so their compilations and guest appearances show with their albums. FIXED • A track picked up partway through, after a relaunch or from Continue, now counts as one play in History rather than a skip and a play.

NEW • CUE sheets. An album ripped as one FLAC, WAV or AIFF file with a CUE sheet now appears as its own tracks, titled and numbered as the sheet says. The sheet can sit beside the file or inside a FLAC, in a folder or in a cloud. The tracks play into one another without a gap, and an album kept offline takes the space of a single file. • Every album keeps your place. Albums now remembers where you stopped in each album, not only the last one you played. A pause mark on the cover shows which albums are waiting; open the album or touch and hold its cover to continue at the same track and second. IMPROVED • The LRCLIB credit under lyrics links to those lyrics' own page. FIXED • With Sync turned off, Sonarch no longer keeps a connection to its server open, waiting for changes from your other devices.

NEW • Headphone correction. With Pro, import the AutoEQ profile for your headphones from a file, or paste it, and choose it for an output in Settings › Playback › Headphone correction. Everything that output plays is corrected, so your AirPods, wired headphones and car each keep their own. Set its strength and hear it change as you drag, at the same level, so you can compare by ear. Turn it on or off, or hold Compare, from the headphones mark beside the volume. It uses the room the volume and volume leveling already leave, and only turns your music down by whatever is still missing. Profiles are kept with your account, so your other devices can use them too. • Bass and Treble. Two knobs under the EQ mark beside the volume, kept per output, so your car can have more bass while your headphones stay flat. A boost uses the room below full volume, so it plays louder instead of turning everything else down, and with correction on, the sound isn't turned down twice. • Peak limiter. Since EQ and headphone correction naturally turn the volume down to prevent clipping, they can play quieter than without them. The peak limiter lets them play up to 2.5 dB louder by catching the rare peaks that would clip. It only works while EQ or correction is on, and otherwise leaves every sample untouched. If you prefer, you can turn it off in Settings › Playback. • Share tracks as files. Send a track, an album or a playlist through AirDrop, Mail, Messages or another app, as the files themselves, named by number and title. Tracks held only in the cloud are fetched first, with progress and a way to cancel, and on a limited connection Sonarch asks before downloading. Touch and hold a track, or open an album's or playlist's menu, and choose Share. IMPROVED • Settings opens on a short list of Library, Playback, Appearance and Account, as on the Mac, each with a page of its own. • Step 10 seconds back or forward from either side of the timeline. • Tap the speaker icon beside the volume to mute, and again to go back to where you were. • The remote turns the Mac's EQ and headphone correction too. • Starting, pausing, resuming and stopping no longer click: the sound fades in and out smoothly, even on revealing headphones. FIXED • The remote no longer asks to pair again when two Macs on your network have the same name.

NEW • S3 buckets. With Pro, add a folder from a bucket on Scaleway, AWS, Hetzner, Backblaze B2, Cloudflare R2, IDrive e2 or any other S3-compatible storage. Pick your provider and Sonarch fills in the address and region; you add the bucket, an optional folder and an access key. A key that can read only one folder works too. IMPROVED • An album's tracks open under its cover, with the artist, years, track count and length, and buttons to pin it or make it available offline. Tap the cover to see it full size. • Sign-ins to Subsonic and WebDAV servers and S3 buckets now reach your other Apple devices through iCloud Keychain, as Dropbox and pCloud sign-ins already did. A server or bucket taken from your account no longer asks for its password again, and disconnecting one signs it out everywhere. • Adding a WebDAV folder inside or around one already in your library is refused instead of holding the same files twice. FIXED • With Sync, play counts from your other devices now show up right away, without restarting Sonarch.

NEW • pCloud and Dropbox keep up on their own. Sonarch follows their lists of changes and rescans only the folders that changed whenever you open it. A folder you already have starts after its next full rescan. Turn it off per folder with Watch for changes in Settings › Library. IMPROVED • A rescan you didn't start now says what it found, and warns you when files in it couldn't be imported. • With pCloud and Dropbox, a file that failed to import is tried again on its own, at the next check for changes and once more a day later. • With Albums sorted by artist, each artist's albums now run from oldest to newest. • Touch and hold an album and choose Show only this artist to narrow Albums to its artist. FIXED • Opening Sonarch before your network is ready no longer leaves it unable to reach your account, with Sync off, for several minutes.

NEW • Genre categories. Sonarch files your albums under a few broad categories, such as Electronic, Ambient, Rock and Jazz, worked out from their genre tags. "Psytrance" lands in Trance and "Hip-Hop/Rap" in Hip Hop, without tidying a single tag. Narrow Albums to a category or a genre from the Filter sheet, or use either in a browse rule. • Make the categories yours. With Pro, rename or hide a category, add your own, and add a genre to as many categories as fit, or take it out of one; the genres below it follow. Going back to how Sonarch ships them is always free, and with Sync your edits reach your other devices. Find it in Settings or the Filter sheet. • Continue here. With Sync, something playing on another of your devices can carry on here: touch and hold its row in History and choose Continue on this iPhone. It picks up from the same second, and the other device pauses once it does, so there's no gap. FIXED • Covers in History no longer sometimes stay stuck as placeholders. • Finishing an album with silence trimming on no longer leaves your other devices offering to continue its last track. • Rescanning a folder from Library Health after deleting it now clears it, instead of reporting it again as one that wouldn't open.

NEW • Which copy plays, and why. Tap the info mark beside a track held in more than one place to see its copies in the order Sonarch tries them, with the reason the first one wins: lossless over lossy, a higher bit depth or sample rate, the order of your locations, a download, or a copy that can't be reached right now. A switch shows what changes on a limited connection. • Open audio files from other apps. Sonarch appears in the share sheet and in Files' Open in, and a file you open plays straight away, with the queue still to follow. It's kept in Sonarch › Opened in Files. • Library Health. Files a scan couldn't take in, grouped by folder with a rescan for each, and albums missing an album name, an artist or track numbers, with a way to fix them, including numbering a whole album at once. Find it in Settings. • Pause timer. Touch and hold the stop button to pause whatever is playing after a number of minutes or at a set time, with a fade. A countdown shows the time left, and "Finish the track first" lets the playing track end instead of cutting it off. • Skip tracks automatically. Mark tracks you'd rather not hear and Sonarch passes over them whenever it picks what plays next: through an album or browse, on shuffle, with Next and Previous. Start one yourself, or play it in a playlist or from a row you queued, and it plays as usual. With Sync, the skip reaches your other devices. • Pick an album from the Remote. The Mac's albums, newest first and searchable by title or artist; tap one and the Mac plays it. • New music reaches your other devices by itself. With Sync, when a rescan of a cloud folder finds new or changed tracks, your other devices holding the same folder rescan just the folders where they turned up. IMPROVED • Select several of an album's tracks to play them, edit their tags, add them to a playlist or the queue, skip them or download them. • "Set playing here" in Albums, as in playlists and on the Mac. • History shows what your other devices played even when this iPhone doesn't have the music: the row is dimmed and can't be played until the album turns up here. FIXED • The mini player no longer covers the bottom of Stats. • Tabs that hold more than one section, such as Bookmarks and History, keep the one you chose after a restart.

NEW • Crossfade. Blend one record into the next, over a length you choose. • Silence trimming. Skip the dead air at the start and end of tracks. • Settings on your account. A new iPhone can copy the setup of one you already use. • Named bookmarks, carried to your other devices. • Your own accent color, kept with your account. • Offline albums from the grid. Make an album available offline straight from the album grid. • Album durations, shown under an album's tracks. IMPROVED • A tidier Queue sheet that marks the playing track, and roomier album rows. • An album you were playing picks up where you left off. FIXED • "Add to queue" and "Play next" no longer do nothing after you've chosen a different album. • Titles that differ only in capitalization count as one track. • Playback and sync are more reliable, along with other small fixes.
