LineupSupply uses Apple's Vision framework to read text from an image and then the Spotify API to create a playlist using that text. So if you provide a music festival poster, it will grab the artist names from the lineup and make a playlist for that music festival.

Often when going to a music festival I want a playlist to listen to the artists that will be performing. I couldn't find any other service that automates this, so I made one myself.

The app is free to create as many playlists as you want, but does have a one time in-app purchase of $1.99 to unlock additional features (control over how many songs per artist, custom app icons, etc). You do need to login with your Spotify account, but Spotify Premium isn't required.

I made this app with SwiftUI and its available on iOS and iPadOS. You can technically download it on macOS too, but it's a port of the iPad app.","title":"Show HN: I made an app to create Spotify playlists from music festival posters","type":"story","url":"https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lineupsupply-playlist-maker/id1631703551"}
