Why Cassettes?

Before streaming, sharing music meant effort. You picked the songs, you ordered them with intent, you scribbled the label, and you handed someone a physical object that said I made this for you. Mixtape Cat brings that feeling back — without the chewed-up tape.

A mixtape in Mixtape Cat is its own thing — not a playlist buried in a library. It's a colorful, decoratable cassette that lives on your shelf: play it on a boombox, share it with the world, and pass it along like it's 1986.

How It Works

• 1. Make

  Build a tape song by song from the Apple Music catalog. Mixtape Cat wraps it in a cassette with its own look and label, and it's yours instantly — no waiting on a library sync.

• 2. Decorate

  Draw on the label, add stickers, and pick your tape color. No two cassettes look alike.

• 3. Share

  Publish to People's Playlists or send a mixtapecat.com link. Anyone with the app can open it instantly.

• 4. Capture

  Love a tape someone shared? Capture it and it lands on your shelf instantly, song for song, decorations and all.

The Music Part

Mixtape Cat leans on Apple Music for the music: every song comes from the Apple Music catalog and streams through your subscription. The mixtapes themselves live in Mixtape Cat — they sync privately across your devices through iCloud, with no extra accounts to create and no passwords to remember. And when you want a tape in the Music app too, export it as a regular Apple Music playlist with one tap.
