The problem

Spotify is built for playing music, not for browsing it

A saved library grows quietly. Finding something in it again takes scrolling, searching, and luck. Albums Vault gives that library a front door.

A library built around playback

  • remove Your saved albums are mixed in with playlists, podcasts, and shows
  • remove Recommendations keep steering you toward what is popular now
  • remove No record of which saved albums you have actually heard
  • remove Nothing is browsable without a connection
album With Albums Vault

A shelf for the records you kept

  • check One focused, visual grid of your saved albums and nothing else
  • check Browse by artist and genre instead of by recommendation
  • check Listened status, inferred from what you actually play
  • check A local copy that opens instantly and works offline

What you can do

Everything the saved list never gave you

The whole app is built around one idea: make a list you already own feel like a collection.

library_music

Browse your collection

See your saved albums together in one focused, visual library.

search

Find something quickly

Search by album or artist, then sort by name, release date, or when you saved it.

filter_alt

Filter your way

Narrow the collection by album, single, or compilation, and show only what you've heard.

category

Rediscover what you own

Browse by artist and genre rather than relying on Spotify's recommendations.

headphones

Track what you've heard

Albums are marked as listened automatically when Spotify sees you play one of their tracks — or you can mark one yourself.

album

Explore every release

Open an album to see its artists, genres, release type, full tracklist, and durations.

cloud_off

Keep browsing offline

Your collection is cached on your computer and stays on screen when Spotify or your connection is unavailable.

sync

Stay in sync

Albums Vault refreshes in the background while the cached library stays available to browse.

A minute of the real app

The grid, the detail view, search, and the listened markers.

Privacy and ownership

Your library stays on your machine

Albums Vault is open source. Here's what that means for your account and your data.

shield

Your password stays with Spotify

Sign-in happens in your browser, so Albums Vault never asks for — or gains access to — your Spotify password.

lock

Tokens in the OS keychain

Access tokens are kept in your operating system's secure credential store, not in the app database.

phone_android

Local by default

A local copy of your album library lives on your computer. Your listening status is stored locally and is never sent back to Spotify.
