FastTrack brings a really good concept to accessing your music quickly with a widget. There is no delay; the song you pick plays immediately. One small issue you might notice is that the artwork does not always match up with the song or artist. It would also be nice to be able to control playback from the widget. But, overall the app definitely has potential and is one to hang onto for fast access to your tunes.

FastTrack is available for free on the App Store with a $0.99 in-app purchase to remove the ads.

Note that the app only works with your iTunes or Apple Music libraries.
