What Stow Does

Four things, done exceptionally well.

Import, organize, listen, personalize. Everything else is out of the way.

Import

Bring your library into Stow—your way.

Move your music, audiobooks, podcasts, long recordings, and even listen to the audio from compatible MP4 video files. Whether you're transferring a few songs or an entire collection, Stow makes importing simple.

Learn Importing
Wi-Fi Transfer
Our recommended method

Drag and drop files or folders from any Mac or PC using your web browser while both are on the same Wi-Fi network. No cables. No extra software.

Import from Files

Import directly from the Apple Files app, including files stored on your device, iCloud Drive, or storage providers connected through Files.
