Since last year, Taylor Swift has been releasing re-recorded versions of her first six albums. Recently I noticed that a lot of the old versions of her songs were hanging around my playlists, and I wanted to change them to use the re-recorded versions. Instead of spending ten minutes doing this like a normal person, I decided to spend over a month of evenings and weekends building an app to do it. Say hello to Taylor’s Version, the #1/only app for replacing Taylor Swift songs in your Spotify playlists with re-recorded versions. With a single-purpose app like this, it can be tempting to roll something out quickly that does the trick but isn’t particularly fancy about it. I wanted Taylor’s Version to be the exact opposite of this – an app with a best-in-class UX, made with love and care, for a really absurd purpose. Something that I could be proud of if Taylor herself ever saw it. As well as the core functionality of scanning your Spotify playlists and helping you replace songs, I’ve added a few other cool features: - Notifications means that when re-recordings become available you can get a reminder to open the app and upgrade some more of your playlists. - Sharing means you can easily share stats of how many Taylor Swift songs you have on your playlists to social media. - A Taylor Swift quiz helps you pass the time while your data loads from Spotify. It’s kind of addictive and the questions range in difficulty from super easy to fiendishly difficult. - Custom app icons, each one inspired by a different Taylor Swift album and painstakingly designed by somebody who has no idea how to do graphic design (me). - Buttons to add a random Taylor Swift song to any playlist. I’m really happy with how Taylor’s Version has turned out. It’s been a fun project and I hope you find it useful. If you like it, please share it with your friends and consider leaving a review on the App Store.
