playsicMusic player for iPhone & iPad
Your music.
Your files.
playsic plays the audio you already own — straight from iCloud Drive and the Files app. No accounts, no streaming, no ads. Just your library, beautifully played.
How it works
Three steps. No sync service.
Your files stay where they are. playsic remembers where to find them.
Put music in Files
Drop MP3s or albums into iCloud Drive, On My iPhone, or any Files provider — from your Mac, PC or another app.
Import into playsic
Tap + and choose Import Files or Import Folder. Whole Artist/Album trees come in at once.
Press play
Tracks appear instantly and download in the background. Titles, artists and artwork are read from each file's tags.
Features
Everything a player should do. Nothing it shouldn't.
Plays the formats you have
MP3 and AAC are free. Lossless — FLAC, WAV, AIFF and Apple Lossless — at full quality with Premium. Gapless playback for live albums and mixes.
iCloud-aware
Files not on your device yet? playsic downloads them in the background and shows progress as it goes.
Albums, artists, playlists
Browse by album or artist, search and sort, and build reorderable playlists — even import straight into one.
Lock screen & Dynamic Island
A Live Activity and Home Screen widget show what's playing, with controls one tap away.
Picks up where you left off
Every track remembers its position — ideal for audiobooks, lectures and long mixes.
Shuffle, repeat, queue
Repeat one or all, shuffle properly, and see what's up next. A mini-player follows you everywhere.
Fix the tags
Edit title, artist, album and artwork right in the app when a file's metadata is wrong.
Made for iPad, too
A sidebar layout that uses the big screen. AirPlay to speakers and Siri Shortcuts on both.
Pricing
Free to play. Pay once for more.

Privacy
A music library is personal. We keep it that way.
playsic has no accounts, no analytics, no tracking. The only thing it ever sends is an anonymous crash report — and you can turn that off.
Privacy Policy
Effective 28 October 2026. This policy explains what the playsic app (“playsic”, “the app”), published by Parlaxis OÜ (“we”), does with information on your iPhone or iPad.
Your music and library
playsic accesses only the audio files and folders you explicitly select through Apple's document picker. Your library — tracks, playlists, play counts, playback positions, edited metadata and artwork — is stored locally on your device using Apple's frameworks. It is not uploaded to us or to any third party. playsic does not use iCloud sync; iCloud Drive is used only as a place to read files you chose.
Crash and diagnostic reports
To find and fix bugs, playsic sends anonymous crash and diagnostic reports to Sentry (Functional Software, Inc.), stored in Sentry's EU data region (Germany). Reports may include:
- Crash data: stack traces, app hangs and unexpected terminations.
- Performance data: sampled timings of app operations.
- Other diagnostic data: device model, iOS version, app version, and short technical logs (counts, states and error descriptions).
Reports do not include your name, IP address, Apple Account, file names, folder names, track titles, artists, artwork, screenshots or recordings of the screen. File paths and URLs are removed on the device before anything is sent. Reports are not linked to your identity and are not used for tracking or advertising.
Turning it off: open playsic → Settings → Privacy and switch off Share Crash Reports. Reporting stops immediately and stays off.
Purchases
playsic Premium is purchased through Apple's App Store. Apple processes the payment; we receive no payment details and no personal information about you.
What we don't do
We do not collect contact information, location, contacts, browsing history, identifiers for advertising, or usage analytics. We do not sell or share data. playsic contains no advertising.
Children
playsic is rated 4+ and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.
Your rights
Because crash reports are anonymous, we cannot link them to you. If you are in the EU/EEA or the UK, you have rights under the GDPR, including access and erasure; contact us below and we will help however we can. Deleting playsic removes its local library from your device.

Support
Questions, answered.
How do I get my music into playsic?
Copy your audio files into iCloud Drive or On My iPhone using the Files app, Finder on a Mac, or iCloud.com. Then in playsic, open Library, tap +, and choose Import Files or Import Folder.
A track says it's downloading. What's happening?
The file lives in iCloud Drive and isn't on your device yet. playsic asks iOS to download it and shows progress. Keep a network connection until it finishes; after that it plays offline.
Why can't I import FLAC or WAV files?
Lossless formats — FLAC, WAV, AIFF and Apple Lossless — are part of playsic Premium. MP3 and AAC/M4A are always free.
I moved or renamed files and a track won't play.
playsic keeps a secure reference to each file and usually follows moves. If a file was deleted or moved to a different provider, re-import it. Failed imports can be retried from the Library.
How do I restore my Premium purchase?
Open Settings → playsic Premium → Restore Purchases, signed in with the same Apple Account. Family members with Family Sharing get Premium automatically.
Can I move my library to a new device?
Premium can export a library backup (and playlists as M3U). Restoring a backup on the new device is free. Your audio files themselves stay in iCloud Drive or wherever you keep them.
Does playsic stream music or work with Apple Music?
No. playsic plays audio files you own. It doesn't stream and doesn't access your Apple Music library.
What do I need to run playsic?
An iPhone or iPad running iOS / iPadOS 26.1 or later.
