Apple’s iOS Control Center provides quick access to basic music player controls that let you play, pause, skip forward and skip back. But what if a similar solution also gave you access to your entire music library without every having to open an app?
Meet Music Center.
Here’s the app’s full description from the iOS App Store:
Ever wanted to view your entire Music Library right on your lock screen or inside any app? Music Center allows you to view your entire music library inside the notification center, which you can browse through as a list, tiles or carousel view.
Now you can select any song from your music library to play without exiting the game you’re playing or even on the Lock Screen.
The days of you needing to fumble around apps to select your favourite song are behind you with Music Center!Music Center is one of the top 200 apps in over 75 countries & has 150000+ downloads in less than two months!
Here’s what the press is saying –

Music Center speeds up the process by taking advantage of iOS 8’s Today widget in the Notification Center.”• TUAW.com – “I wasn’t sure how useful Music Center would be, but I find I am using it frequently. I especially like the access from the lock screen to play music via Bluetooth while I am driving. It’s quick and easy.”
• AppAdvice.com – “Music Center is a pretty cool idea and makes it easy to get quick access to your music library without having to unlock your device”.
