How a song battle works

No trivia, no right answer, no leaderboard of who knows the most. Just a preference, captured one matchup at a time — and a chart that moves because of it.

One

Listen

Two tracks go head to head. Tap either side to hear its preview — no subscription needed.

Two

Vote

Swipe toward the song you’re choosing. That’s the whole game. It takes about three seconds.

Three

Watch the chart move

Every vote updates both songs’ global ratings. Winners climb, losers slide, and the ranking is entirely crowd-built.

Built by listeners, not algorithms

Most music charts measure spend: playlist placement, radio adds, marketing budget. DeuxDuel measures one thing — which song you actually picked when the two were side by side and nothing else was on the screen.

Ratings use a Glicko system, the same family of maths that ranks chess players. Beating a highly-rated song moves you further than beating an unknown one, and every rating carries a confidence interval, so nothing is ranked on the strength of a handful of votes. Read the full explanation in how the ranking works.

Common questions

Is DeuxDuel free?

Yes. Every song battle, every category and the full global ranking are free. DeuxDuel Plus is an optional subscription that removes ads and lets you export saved songs to Apple Music.

Do I need an Apple Music subscription?

No. DeuxDuel plays the 30-second previews that are available to everyone. An Apple Music subscription only adds the option to save full songs to your library.

Is this a music trivia or guess-the-song game?

No. There is no correct answer in DeuxDuel and nothing to get wrong. It is a preference game — you are not being tested, you are voting.

Is DeuxDuel on Android?

Not today. DeuxDuel is iPhone-only, iOS 17 or later.

How many songs are in the catalogue?

Thousands, spread across 143 categories by era, genre and mood — and it grows as new matchups are added.
