Discogs announces official app for iOS and Android

After years of waiting, Discogs is finally giving its users an official mobile app.

As the Vinyl Factory reports, the app will be based on MilkCrate, an existing third-party app for browsing the site’s huge library of new and second-hand records. It also features the ability to catalogue collections, view prices on the marketplace, add to wantlists and search the database for music.

Like MilkCrate, the app will keep a user’s account data synced between platforms, but according to The Vinyl Factory users won’t be able to communicate with sellers or purchase records using the app – you’ll need to use the desktop version to buy records.

The app is set to launch in Q1 2016 – until then there’s still MilkCrate and Discollector if you want to use Discogs on iOS or Android.
