Import your music — from Apple Music, files, and your computer
Your collection is probably scattered: some in your Apple Music library, some in downloads, some in a folder tree on a computer you've curated for years. Prismatic Music pulls it into one offline library — no cable, no iTunes.
Prismatic Music is built for music you own — purchased downloads, ripped CDs, Bandcamp orders, DJ pools, field recordings. Import happens on-device: your files stay yours, nothing is uploaded to a cloud, and no account is created.
Every way in lives on one Add Music screen. On iPhone and iPad, the importer can read your Apple Music library and bring over the DRM-free tracks you own; you can add audio files from the Files app or any app's share sheet; you can drag and drop music straight from any computer's browser over Wi-Fi; and if your library already lives on another phone, it can copy across device-to-device.
One honest limitation, because it trips everyone up: songs downloaded from the Apple Music streaming service are DRM-protected, and no third-party player — ours included — is allowed to play them. What imports is the music you actually own: iTunes purchases, rips, and other DRM-free files. If you cancel a streaming subscription, that music was never yours; the library you build in Prismatic Music is.
Built for real collections
Apple Music library import
On iPhone and iPad, scan your device's music library and import the DRM-free tracks you own — purchases and synced files — with their metadata.
Files and share-sheet import
Add audio from the Files app, AirDrop, or any app's share sheet. If it's on your device, it can join your library.
From your computer — or your old phone
Drag and drop music from any computer's browser over Wi-Fi — no cable, no iTunes, nothing to install — or copy a whole library straight across from another device running Prismatic Music.
Metadata that survives the trip
Titles, artists, albums, and artwork come along, and the library fills gaps where it can — so imports land organized, not as a pile of file names.
On-device and private
Import happens locally. No upload, no cloud matching, no account. Your library is a database on your device, not a profile on a server.
Every major format
MP3, AAC, FLAC, ALAC (Apple Lossless), WAV, and AIFF all import and play natively — no conversion step.
How importing works
Three routes into your library, depending on where your music lives.
- 1
Import from your Apple Music library (iPhone & iPad)
Open Prismatic Music, choose Apple Music Library on the Add Music screen, and grant music-library access. The importer scans your library and brings over the DRM-free tracks you own, with metadata and artwork.
- 2
Add files from the Files app
Choose Files & Cloud Storage and pick audio files or folders from the Files app, iCloud Drive, or a connected service — or share audio to Prismatic Music from any other app.
- 3
Drag and drop from your computer (Wi-Fi)
Choose From Computer and your iPhone shows a short code. On the computer, open prismatic.fm/transfer in any browser on the same Wi-Fi, enter the code, and drag your files or folders in — they transfer over your local network, straight into the library.
- 4
Play — everything's in one library
Imported music lands in one searchable library, organized by artist, album, and playlist, ready to play fully offline.
Import Your Library — FAQ
It can play the DRM-free music you own — iTunes purchases, ripped CDs, and files you've added yourself. Songs downloaded from the Apple Music streaming service are DRM-protected, and Apple doesn't allow any third-party app to play those. That's a platform rule, not an app limitation.
Three ways: save the files anywhere in the Files app and import them from Prismatic Music, share them straight to Prismatic Music from another app (Mail, AirDrop, a cloud-drive app), or drag and drop them from your computer's browser over Wi-Fi. Any way you choose, they join your library on the device.
Yes. Choose From Computer on the Add Music screen: your iPhone shows a short code, you open prismatic.fm/transfer in the computer's browser on the same Wi-Fi network, enter the code, and drag in files or folders. The music transfers directly over your local network — no cable, no iTunes, and nothing to install on the computer.
Yes — in the Files app, select a folder (or many files at once) and bring it in; imports also come from your Apple Music library and any app's share sheet. Everything lands in one organized library.
No. Import is entirely on-device: no cloud upload, no server-side matching, no account. Your files stay where you put them, and the library lives on your device.
The importer brings over tracks, not playlists. Once your music is in, Prismatic Music's own playlists take over — including reordering, descriptions, and smart organization of everything you've imported.
