Hey guys!

Retro brings back the magic of having full control over your music––inspired by the design of the iPod. Why would we want that? I don’t know, but nostalgia hits us hard at the weirdest of times and sometimes there’s harmony in it.

We’ve been spoiled with Spotify/Apple Music. Being able to have all your songs in one place is a godsend and is something we take for granted every day. I don’t want to take that away and currently you can control/sync Apple Music with Retro.

You can theme the app to really make it yours. Right now I’ve made a few skins that you can select within the app (as seen in the video). You can also change the wheel color.

Retro is 100% free to use and will always be.

It's awesome! Highly recommend working with it if you're aiming for efficiency. There's also plenty of packages that help speed up development
