Native ListenBrainz App for IOS - Scrobbler for ListenBrainz 2.0 is out! 🎉

Hey everyone,

just wanted to drop by and share that I’ve released version 2.0 of Scrobbler for ListenBrainz today!

This update has been in the works for a while – a lot went into it, and I’m honestly curious to see how it lands with you all. For me, it feels like the first real milestone for the app.

Under the hood, I’ve completely revamped the caching and data storage – things should feel noticeably snappier and more reliable. On top of that, there are even more statistics to dig into, a new way to export your data, and an improved flow for discovering and following new people on ListenBrainz.

The app is free as always on the App Store: Scrobbler for ListenBrainz

I’d love to hear your feedback – whether something’s broken, something’s missing, or you just want to say what you like. That kind of input is exactly what helps me keep improving the app. So please, put it through its paces and let me know here or reach out directly! :folded_hands:

Thanks for making this community such a great place.

Hi Dominik,

First of all, congratulations on the 2.0 release. This looks like a really meaningful milestone, especially the caching/storage rewrite, richer stats, export flow, and the improved social discovery pieces.

I’m currently working on OpenScrobbler, a native Swift macOS/iOS project centered around ListenBrainz and MusicBrainz.

Seeing your app already moving strongly on iOS is actually useful context for us. I’d like ListenScrobbler to complement the ecosystem rather than duplicate effort where it does not add much. Our current angle is more cross-platform macOS+iOS scrobbling, MusicBrainz enrichment, source/import metadata, and local workflow tooling.

I’d be very interested in comparing notes, especially around iOS limitations, source metadata, imports, and what you have learned from building a native ListenBrainz experience.

Congrats again, and thanks for pushing ListenBrainz on iOS forward.

Not sure if you’re aware of it, but there’s already a popular manual scrobbler for Last.fm named Open Scrobbler.

Thanks for the call out.
