Description

From the listing uploaded by “superpocket”.

CrateCore brings together a daily editorial digest, a catalog for physical music releases and practical listening tools. Daily digest Explore stories about landmark events, album anniversaries, artists and releases that shaped music culture. Follow upcoming drops, reissues, pre-orders and release dates. Collection Keep vinyl records, CDs and cassettes in one catalog. Add releases in several ways: - scan a barcode; - search by catalog number; - import an existing collection from a Discogs CSV file. Search your collection offline, manage a wishlist and view information about specific releases and editions. Turntable tools Check turntable rotation speed using your phone’s sensors. CrateCore displays RPM, deviation from the target speed and measurement stability. Track the estimated usage time of your cartridge. Log one record side, a full album or enter an exact listening duration manually. Visualizers Choose between classic analog VU meters and a frequency spectrum, then customize their appearance. The visualizers work while listening to vinyl, CDs, cassettes or music from streaming services. Privacy The microphone is used only while the visualizer is active. Audio is processed on-device and is not recorded or transmitted. CrateCore is designed for listeners who value musical context, an organized collection and the ritual of listening. Account Stories need no account: read and share freely. The collection, scanning, likes, the tools and your setup need a free account — that way they belong to you and move with you to your next phone. Discogs is a trademark of Zink Media, LLC. CrateCore is not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by Discogs.

CrateCore APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the CrateCore APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is b74ef79cc88af7147a24d11a028c634a.
