MusiCards for Mac

Hi everyone,

Based on my web-based MusicBrainz Release Viewer and the iOS app MusiCards for iPone, I have now extended the project to macOS:

It is now a universal app, works best on Mac and iPhone and only so-so on iPad. :slight_smile:

MusiCards

The Mac version presents MusicBrainz releases and artists in a liquid-glass-inspired accordion interface.
Current features include:

  • artist and release search
  • combined artist + release queries
  • track-title-based release search
  • CD barcode scanning (iPhone)
  • MusicBrainz release MBID lookup
  • Apple Music “Now Playing” release lookup (iPhone)
  • Shazam track recognition → release lookup (iPhone)
  • classical-friendly track display with work / movement structure
  • recording performer & technical credits
  • categorised discographies

I created the concept and workflow, designed the interface myself, while much of the Swift implementation was developed through AI-assisted coding with ChatGPT and Claude.

Best, Gyorgy
