Twelve tracks and a voice note they didn't see coming.

For the moving-away and the see-you-soon.

A long drive

Side A out. Side B back.

Missing someone

For the distance, after midnight.

I'm sorry

What you couldn't quite say out loud.

Questions

Does the person receiving it have to pay?

Never. Receiving and opening a tape is always free — they download Tape Bird at no cost to unwrap your gift.

Do I need Apple Music?

You can build and send a tape without a subscription. Hearing full songs (rather than 30-second previews) requires Apple Music on the listener's device.

Do tapes or packs expire?

Never. A tape you send and a pack you own don't expire.
