Pick a tempo. Add your Genres, Eras, or Artists. Get a playlist.
Tempo Tunes builds playlists around beats per minute. Tell it how fast you want to go: 150 BPM for an easy run, 174 for intervals, 128 for the spin bike. It fills a playlist with songs that match.
TEMPO, RUN, GOLF, BIKE, OR SNOW
One list, five ways in. Tempo: set the BPM yourself. Run, Golf, Bike, and Snow work it out for you.
RUN TEMPO
Enter a distance and a goal time and Tempo Tunes works out your pace, your steps per minute, and the BPM that matches your stride. Or load a run you recorded and it fills in.
GOLF TEMPO
Every good swing has a rhythm, about three to one, backswing to downswing. Pick a preset or find your own: hold your phone like a club, film your swing, or let your Apple Watch count. Impact lands on the beat, for full swings or putting.
BIKE TEMPO
Load a ride you recorded and the playlist changes tempo where the trail does. Climbs, descents, and cruising each get their own BPM, drawn on your ride's elevation, and you can move any of them.
SNOW TEMPO
Load a day on snow and the playlist follows the hill: skinning and climbing get a stride tempo, the drop gets a fast one, the lift gets a rest. Nordic, Tour, or Resort, read from the day.
LIVE
A dynamic playlist, built as you go from whatever sensors your activity gives it: steps, heart rate, the road, the hill, the board. No watch needed: your phone in a pocket reads your steps, motion, and climb. Pick an activity from the list and go. Needs Apple Music.
ALL DAY
Music that flows with your day. Your heart rate sets the mood, and when you walk, your steps set the beat.
WALK
Your steps set the beat, song after song. A climb lifts it a little.
RUN
Your stride sets the beat. Pick up the pace and the next song picks up with you.
HIKE
Built for the trail. The climbs lift the beat more than a walk does, and on the way down the tempo holds while you pick your way. A slow, steep grind still counts as moving.
BIKE
The road sets the beat: climbs sit on your pedal stroke, descents let it run.
SNOW
Skin up to your strides, drop in to the hill's tempo, rest on the lift. Splitboard, touring skis, or a resort day.
SKATE
Park and street. The more you are in runs, the hotter the music gets; sit a while and it settles.
SEND IT
One button on every activity. Tap it and a faster song comes in now, one song, then the session takes back over.
WITH AN APPLE WATCH
Your heart rate joins in: Zone 2 or Push keeps you in the zone.
YOUR SESSION, KEPT
When it ends, the session lands in Playlists with its stats, the climb, and a chart of the tempo against your steps.
TAKE IT OFFLINE
Songs for your picks on your phone. Live switches to them the moment the signal drops.
TEMPO SHAPES
Playlists that rise, peak, and fade. Pick a curve (Rise, Bell, or Fade), set where it starts and ends, and the playlist rides the arc.
FIND YOUR TEMPO
Tap along on the BPM tab and Tempo Tunes detects it, listens to a song that's playing, or looks up any song's
