Ever lunged for the volume when an unexpected swear word blasts through your speakers — especially with kids in the car? Verso is a clean music app that uses AI to mute profanity, slurs, and blasphemy from songs in your Apple Music library in real time, so you never have to hunt for rare "clean" versions again.^1
Just sync your Apple Music account in one tap, toggle on Verso's Global Filters, and every song plays swear-free automatically. For finer control, you can customize filters on a per-song basis — choosing exactly which words to silence — and save those preferences for future listens. Songs that have been pre-processed by Verso display a badge, and you can request filtering for any song not yet in their catalog.^2
Verso is built by fathers who understand the struggle firsthand. Co-founders Drew Carson and Jonathan Bernal created Verso because over 90% of today's hits carry explicit tags, and existing streaming services offer no way to filter individual lyrics — only skip entire songs. Carson, a father of four boys, describes it as a personal mission rooted in his faith and family values.^3 The app has since climbed to the #1 App Store result for "clean music," ranking ahead of Spotify, SoundCloud, and YouTube Music.^4
