What is RePod?
RePod is an iOS music player app that recreates the iPod Classic on iPhone, 1:1. You browse artists, albums, playlists and songs with an on-screen Click Wheel, flip through Cover Flow, and play your Apple Music library and your own imported audio files.
How much does RePod cost?
RePod is a one-time purchase on the App Store (US$0.99 in the US; other regions show their local price). There is no subscription, no in-app purchase and no ads.
Do I need Apple Music?
No. Local files you import play without a subscription. Apple Music tracks need an active subscription and permission to read your library.
Which devices does it run on?
iPhone or iPad with iOS 17.6 or later. On iPhone it stays in portrait, so you hold it one-handed like the real thing.
Which files can I import?
Common audio that iOS can play: MP3, AAC/M4A, WAV, AIFF and more. Pick several files at once, or import a whole folder.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Music you import into RePod plays fully offline, and the status bar shows when you are offline. Streaming Apple Music tracks needs a connection.
Is there an Android version?
No. RePod is available for iPhone and iPad only. You can try the full interactive demo right on this page.
Do I need an account?
No. Open the app and start listening. There is no sign-in screen.
Is this made by Apple?
No. RePod is an independent app with no affiliation with Apple. It’s a love letter to the iPod.
