MusicMatch is a new app for iPhone and iPad that takes Spotify links and turns them into something you can open in Apple Music. It also works in the opposite direction for people who use Spotify but keep receiving links from friends who use Apple Music.
That right there is what makes MusicMatch so useful. If like me, your spouse uses Spotify while you use Apple Music, you’re probably used to having to deal with links that don’t do anything for you. This app fixes that, allowing you to open the link in a snap.
HOW IT WORKS
- Receive a link to a song, album, or artist from a friend
- Copy the link to clipboard
- Open MusicMatch
- MusicMatch will automatically open your preferred app
Not keen on copying the link and opening the MusicMatch app? The included Safari extension handles everything automatically and will redirect links from Spotify right into Apple Music — although at the time of writing it only works in that direction. Spotify users will have to go via the MusicMatch app for now.
Anyone who wants to take MusicMatch for a spin — and you really do — can download it for free from the App Store right now. It might just be the best iPhone app you download this month. Especially if you’re tired of dealing with music links that you can’t do anything with!

Paper Mario is a well-beloved series and now that the first game has made its way to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack everyone should play it. While I love this game, it always makes me sad for the SNES game that inspired it. legendcam
