Musical 1.2.4

Musical 1.2.4

• Imported songs without track numbers now land in the album's real order instead of alphabetical
• Album names, artists, genres and years found online are far more accurate, and a doubtful match is no longer accepted
• When an album's name is missing, misspelt or just a folder name, Musical recognises the album from the songs themselves
• A folder called "music", "downloads" or similar is no longer mistaken for the artist
• Genres are more specific — an indie rock album no longer ends up as "Electronic"
• Look Up Tags can now fix track and disc numbers, rename filename-style titles and reorder songs, including on multi-disc albums
• Look Up Tags tells you when a suggestion replaces a tag you entered yourself, and nothing changes until you press Save
• Compilations found online get each song's own artist

Musical 1.1.0

Musical 1.1.0 — steadier streaming and stats you can trust.

Improved
• Statistics, fixed. Your listening stats now count plays correctly, and your iPhone and iPad pick up new plays from your Mac incrementally instead of re-downloading your whole history.
• Steadier connections. iPhone and iPad reconnect to your Mac faster and more reliably, including when you move between Wi-Fi and cellular.
• Faster song starts. Streams begin sooner, and your Mac pauses background preparation work while a device is listening.
• WAV and AIFF stream properly. Uncompressed files are now converted to the quality your device asks for instead of being sent at full size.
• Hi-res and multichannel files now convert correctly for streaming.

Under the hood
• General reliability and performance polish.

Musical 1.0.2

Musical 1.0.2 — a warmer welcome and a tidier Mac.

New
• A brand-new welcome. Musical's first-run experience has been redesigned from the ground up, in the style of musical.rocks. It walks you through what matters — your own collection, lossless playback, offline listening — and gets you into your music faster.
• Personalise before you connect. Pick your default tab, choose whether to remember shuffle & repeat, and decide whether to show suggestions during setup — then pair.
• A redesigned About. Settings ▸ About now matches the website: what Musical does, the "own it once" promises (Pay once, Lossless, Offline, Private) and a plain-English note that your music stays yours.

Improved
• Connect to a Mac, inline. Pairing another Mac now lives directly in Settings ▸ Devices as a normal, scrollable list — no more cramped floating window.
• Tidier menus. Removed the redundant File ▸ New Window and Musical ▸ Services items.

Under the hood
• General reliability and performance polish.
