Come out with

Free on iPhone, iPad and Android, and built for iPhone Duo.

Side ARSD · 2026

Flip through the whole list, weeks before the drop.

Every official release, pulled in clean with cover art and notes. Filter by format, category, or label. Search by artist. Heart what you want. No marketplace noise.

  • Cover-first browse. Album art leads, always.
  • Real filters. LP · 7″ · EP · Exclusive · RSD First · Small Run.
  • One-tap wishlist. Tap the heart. That’s it.

Rank your crate. Grail goes first.

Your wishlist isn’t a pile; it’s a battle plan. Put the one you’d line up at dawn for at the top. Reorder on the ride to the store. Swipe away anything you’ve cooled on.

  • Drag to reorder. Muscle memory, not menus.
  • Share as a PDF. Send your list to the store or a friend.
  • Count badge. Lives in the tab bar, so you always know.

Big buttons.
Small crates.
Loud speakers.

Day-of Mode is built for one moment: standing in a record store, one hand on a stack of LPs, thumb on the screen. See your whole list at a glance, or go one record at a time, cover first, in the order you ranked it. Found it? Tap Found. Gone? Tap Missed. The next one slides in.

  • Two big buttons. Made for thumbs, not tweezers.
  • A barcode for the counter. Can’t find it in the bins? Show staff the barcode to scan.
  • Undoable. Marked the wrong one? Take it back.
  • Works offline. Basement reception be damned.

Every drop. Every got‑it. Every one that got away.

Each season you hunt stays in the app. April. The fall drops. Next April. Scroll back to see what you scored and what’s still on the want list.

Questions

Is it really free?
Yes. Free on the App Store and Google Play. No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads.
Is this an official Record Store Day app?
No. Wax Wishlist is an independent app made by a collector, for collectors. It’s not affiliated with or endorsed by Record Store Day.
Do I need an account?
Nope. No sign-up, no email, no login. Install it, open it, start wishlisting. Your data lives on your phone.
Does it work on iPad and iPhone Duo?
Yes. On iPad the whole drop becomes a wall of covers, with each record’s details right beside it. On iPhone Duo it fills both displays and works in every pose. Open it up and your list and a record sit side by side; fold it halfway and nothing lands on the crease. It works in landscape and Split View too.
Does it work offline at the store?
Yes. Once you’ve downloaded a season, the full release list, your wishlist, and Day-of Mode work with zero signal. Built for basements and back rooms.
Can I share my wishlist?
Yes. Tap share to export a clean PDF of your wishlist or your day-of results. Send it by Messages, Mail, AirDrop, or print it and tape it to the fridge.
How often are releases updated?
Each RSD event (the April drop and the fall drops) ships as a new season. The app checks for updates on launch, and you can pull fresh data from Settings anytime.
