What is tidal?

Tidal is like having a special music friend who knows exactly what you want to listen to, and plays it for you every day.

Imagine you have a music box that not only holds all your favorite songs, but also learns what you like best. You can stream, which means play, your music on your phone, tablet, or even your smart speaker. It's like having your favorite radio station in your pocket!

How it works

Tidal has a library, just like your toy box has all your favorite toys. This library has millions of songs from different artists and genres. You can choose to listen to what you want, or let Tidal pick something new for you, kind of like how your mom picks out a fun game when you’re tired.

You can also download your favorite songs so you can listen to them even without the internet, just like saving your favorite picture on your phone to look at later.
