People always grab their phones to record special moments at concerts, but they often don’t replay the videos. Gigsa new concert-tracking app that launched this week, wants to change that. The iOS app helps live music fans turn their years of concerts, tickets, and photo and video memories into a personal archive with the help of Apple’s on-device AI.
To add a concert to Gigs, users can import a ticket, email, screenshot, or even a website link, and the app will use Apple’s Foundation Models to retrieve dates, venues, lineups, and other information to populate the list.
For those who already track their concert history elsewhere, such as Setlist.fm or Concert Archives, there is an option to automatically import years of concert and festival attendance by linking their accounts.
Once concerts are added to the app, users can sync the dates to their personal calendar, get ticket sales reminders, browse anticipated set lists, and view other information about the show or artist. When the concert ends, the app reminds the user to rate the performance as well as upload photos, videos, and other artworks from the event.
Gigs was founded by indie developer Hidde van der Ploeg, who used to work there the AI app Peteywhich creates Apple Music playlists; music discovery app Now Playing; Helm for App Store Connect; and other mobile applications. With Gigs, he wanted to create an app for people who enjoy live music and could use help remembering their event history.
By organizing concert memories in Gigs, users have the option to revisit favorite shows from their past while also gaining more insights about their concert history. Through the app’s stats dashboard, users can track categories such as most viewed artists, favorite places, most visited city, poorest year, and average ratings. The app also includes milestones to celebrate the user’s journey along the way — like when they’ve seen their first 10 shows or when they’ve passed 1,000, depending on what kind of concertgoer they are.
The app is designed for iOS 26 with a Liquid Glass look and feel, and includes Home Screen widgets for counting down to the next event. Siri integration allows users to check upcoming shows, access tickets, or rate events by voice. In addition, all movies are indexed in Apple’s Spotlight for system-wide search, and the app includes many custom icons.
It’s gigs a free download with a $2.99/month in-app purchase that unlocks additional features, such as data export, achievements, deeper insights, unlimited storage for photos and videos, and support for importing concert history from other services, or via CSV file. A $19.99/year subscription is also available, or Gigs can be bundled with NowPlaying for additional discounts.
