Fortissimo

Fortissimo was created for people who still listen to albums from start to finish. The listeners who revisit records for years, rethink rankings over time, and attach memories to specific songs and moments in life.

Rate every track as you listen and watch your music fingerprint begin to take shape. Rankings evolve in real time through the Fortissimo Ranking Engine™, turning your library into a living reflection of your relationship with music.

Most music apps track what you play. Fortissimo tracks what you think.

Built for Albums

Fortissimo is organized around artists and albums, never feeds or shuffle-first listening. Album artwork stays front and center, sequencing is preserved, and when an album ends, you decide what happens next.

Enable Fermata Mode for a more immersive listening experience designed around focused album playback and minimal distraction.

Rate Your Music

• Rate tracks from 0–10 in half-point increments • Automatic album scoring through the Fortissimo Ranking Engine™ • Real-time rankings across your entire library • Compare entire artist catalogs instantly • Customize how hidden tracks, interludes, and short songs influence album scores • Override scores manually when an album becomes greater than the sum of its parts

Notes That Stay With the Music

Flip the album artwork while listening and write notes directly behind any track. Capture reactions, memories, thoughts, or the one sentence that explains why an album matters to you.

Some people remember their lives through photographs. Others remember them through music.

Designed Around the Album

Fortissimo was intentionally designed in black and white so the album artwork remains the only source of color in the experience.

Minimal by design. Immersive by intention.

Additional Features

• Smart playlists powered by ratings, notes, and listening history • Universal search across albums, songs, notes, and playlists • Editable metadata without changing original Apple Music files • Separate album and song timelines • Auto-dimming playback controls • Secure iCloud backup • PIN-protected notes, rankings, and metadata • No ad, no subscriptions, no streaming dependency

Some albums stay with you for life. Fortissimo helps you remember why.

Music lives because someone made it. Do yourself a favour, listen to the album, all of it.
