Serato DJ, Now on iPhone and iPad

Serato DJ for iOS is officially here. Bring the full power of Serato DJ to every moment. Stream millions of songs on Spotify, Apple Music, and more. Plug and play on 120+ hardware setups.

DJing has always gone wherever the people are. Block parties. Basements. Bedrooms. Back seats. Kitchens. These days, it’s run clubs. Laundromats. Nail salons. Everywhere. Wherever DJs set up, ordinary spaces become moments people remember.

Now, Serato DJ can be part of every one of those moments. For the first time, it’s moving beyond the laptop to iPhone and iPad, with the same engine, decks, crates, and waveforms you already know, right in your pocket.

“There are other iOS apps for DJing, but they aren’t Serato. They aren’t the official app.”


– A-Trak, DMC World Turntablism Champion and GRAMMY-Nominated Producer


What to Expect from Serato DJ for iOS

Open the app, and you’re home. It runs on the same engine as Serato DJ Pro, with the decks, crates, waveforms, and library you know, all rebuilt specifically for iPhone and iPad.

Plug and Play with 120+ DJ Hardware Setups

Plug in and go. Over 120 controllers, turntables, and mixers are ready to play, from AlphaTheta, Hercules, Numark, Pioneer DJ, Rane, Roland, and more. If you don’t have any gear, mix straight from the screen with Handheld Mode.

DJ with Apple Music, Spotify, and More

Connect Apple Music, Beatport, SoundCloud, Spotify, or Tidal, and millions of tracks are right there. Your playlists and liked songs sit alongside your local files in one library.

Grab Your Favorite Tracks to Go

Serato iOS Transfer moves your crates from your laptop to your iPhone or iPad, wirelessly or by cable. Cue points, beatgrids, and metadata come along too, so everything lands exactly as you prepared it. To get started, update Serato DJ Pro or Lite on your laptop to version 5.0 or later.

All the Tools You’re Used To

It’s also packed with the features you rely on. Split any track in real time with Serato Stems and Stems FX. Fire cues, loops, and samples from the pads, explore advanced pad modes like Slicer and Loop Roll, and layer in 60+ FX. Lock in with Lucid Beatgrids, Quantize, and Key Sync. You can also connect turntables with DVS support and record mixes straight to your device.

DJ Everywhere: Serato DJ for iOS in Action

The DJ Everywhere campaign celebrates the moments DJs create, wherever they are. A-Trak, DJ Miss Milan, Nick Cheo, and Magie Hue star in a series of films showing what happens when the full Serato DJ experience goes mobile.

They take Serato DJ for iOS far from the booth, playing wherever inspiration strikes. From a ramen bar and a hair salon to a spontaneous Las Vegas wedding and a roadside pit stop, they show that wherever you go, the Serato DJ app goes too. All four already have the app in their pockets, and it’s opened up new ways to play, practice, and create.

For DJ Miss Milan, that means never losing an idea.

“Inspiration is everywhere for me. I used to write ideas in my notes app, now I can play a mashup on the spot and hear if it actually works.”


– DJ Miss Milan | Grammy Award-Winning DJ & Producer

For Nick Cheo, who built a following of more than 265K from his bedroom, the app backs up something he’s always known: music doesn’t need a big stage to move people.

“Music should be everywhere at all times, zero objections. I think everybody who loves music and has an iPhone gets to experience the same happiness that I experience, so I’m grateful for that.”


– Nick Cheo, Bedroom DJ

DJing has come full circle. After decades centered on the club, it’s moving back into all corners of life, turning up on the big nights and the everyday ones alike. Wherever it lands, it creates moments of connection. And with Serato DJ for iOS, the next one could start anywhere.

“You no longer have to stay out until 2 a.m. to dance and listen to great DJs. I think it’s great that people are finding new ways to experience music and connect with each other, whether it’s a daytime event, a farmers market, someone’s home, or even a coffee shop.”


– Magie Hue, DJ and Music Producer
