The app now has a “free 7-day trial” again.
No more 100 item “free mode” or “free trial”. We did our best to make it work, but it just didn’t. So we’re back to the old tried and tested “7-day trial” system 🙂
(Don’t worry, if you already started your free mode, it will keep working.)

- Add Album by artist/title: after adding an album, the cursor will be put back in the search box straight away so you can immediately start your next search
Fixed:
- Statistics: In some cases the order under “most recent” could be wrong

Don’t worry, all popups can be dismissed with “don’t show again” 🙂
Fixed for iOS

New:
- We changed the “buy now” text link into a big blue button so it’s more clear!
Fixed:

CLZ Music is now free to use up to 100 albums, for as long as you like.
This “Free Mode” includes access to all functionality, including CLZ Cloud syncing (for online backups and transferring data between devices).
Got more than 100 albums? Then subscribe (US $15 per year) and add as many albums as you need. Of course, feel free to try the app with 100 albums first!
CLZ Music 9 Feature Hilite: improvements to the Add Albums screen
Here’s my second “v9 feature hilite” email, about another area of improvement in last week’s CLZ Music v9 release.
(tip: if you missed yesterday’s feature hilite #1 about the collection tab-bar, you can read it here).
Today, we are going to discuss the various improvements we implemented for the Add Albums screen:
- Quick “Confirm” pop-ups, instead of full screen Preview pages
- Search results now also show the number of discs, making it easier to spot multi-disc album entries
- Improved process of combining discs into a multi-disc album
- Adding by Barcode: Faster camera scanner for scanning barcodes
Last week’s CLZ Music 9.0 update was a big one, with 3 areas of improvement. To make sure you did not miss any of the new stuff, I am going to do three “v9 feature hilite” emails this week, each one highlighting one of the big improvements.
Today’s “v9 feature hilite” is about all the new collections tab-bar.

- Multi-level folders: when filtering inside a folder the search text would clear after typing a space

- Editing an item could send you to a different folder than you were in
A lot of the questions we get about CLZ Music can usually be answered with:
“Just use Manage Pick Lists”
Renaming locations, Merging duplicate artists, fixing artist sort problems, fixing typos in labels, etc… it is all done in the Manage Pick Lists screen. An important and powerful screen, but… not so easy to find if you don’t know where to look or don’t even know what to look for.
With this update, we are trying to fix all that. We have made the screen much more accessible / discoverable AND we have made several improvements to the MPL screen itself.
