Pick Your Favorite Album

No setup needed — a fresh batch of 10 albums is drawn from our library every time you start, and the first pair is already up. Each match is one tap: the loser is out, your winner stays on for the next pair, and the streak counter keeps score. The last album standing is your favourite. Want a different lineup? Open the library below to hand-pick records or add your own. Progress is saved in this browser.

How it works

Every visit draws 10 albums at random from our library — no list-building required. You get one pair at a time: pick the one you prefer, the loser is out, and your winner meets the next candidate while its streak counter climbs. When the line runs out, the last one standing is your favourite. The order is fixed at the draw, progress is stored locally, and any pick can be undone — including the decider. Prefer your own lineup? Open the candidate library to check any 4–48 records, or add custom ones with your own name and cover. The result page shows the winner, the last one out and the full run — shareable as a card, exportable as one PNG.

Frequently asked questions

How does a run work?

Each run draws 10 albums at random and throws them at you one pair at a time. Tap the one you prefer — the loser is out, your winner meets the next candidate and its streak climbs. 10 candidates, 9 matches, last one standing wins.

How big is the library? Can I pick the lineup myself?

70 classic albums with official art. Open 'Library · new batch' to browse everything, check 4–48 records and start with exactly those, redraw a fresh 10, or add your own candidates — name plus an optional cover.

Does my progress survive a refresh?

Yes. The batch, the running order and every pick live in this browser's local storage — refresh or reopen and you resume on the match you left, with no reshuffle.

Can I change a pick?

Yes. 'Undo last pick' steps back one match at a time, including undoing the decider on the result page; the matchup and streak roll back to exactly that moment.

Can I share the result?

Yes. The result page builds a share card locally: copy the text and link, save it as a PNG, copy the image or use the system share sheet where supported. The QR on the card links straight back to the tool.

Is anything uploaded?

No. The draw, your picks, custom entries, share card and PNG export all happen locally in your browser — no requests, no account. Custom entries stay in this browser; their covers reset when the tab closes.

How do I run a different batch?

Tap 'Library · new batch' mid-run or on the result page: draw 10 fresh at random or check your own set — existing results clear after you confirm. 'Replay same batch' keeps the names and draws a fresh order.
