Your library stays yours
Private by design, not by promise.
afterglow has no accounts and no backend database. Your export is read and kept in your own browser, and you can delete it whenever you like.
- Nothing is uploaded
Your history files are processed on this device.
- No accounts, no tracking
No Spotify login, no cookies, no third-party fonts. The live site counts anonymous visits, never anything about your music.
- Covers by name only
When real artwork is on, only names and track IDs are looked up. Never what or when you played.
Ready when you are.
Start with the sample library, or bring your own history. Either way, it takes a few seconds.
