Liqoria - Music on Mac

Full contextOriginal content · Reddit

The Problem: Music is one of the things people do most on their Mac, yet macOS offers surprisingly few ways to control it. The system provides only basic playback controls, with no rich mini player or customizable music widget that works across your favorite apps Liqoria is not just a controller for apps like Apple Music, Spotify, and your browsers it’s also a standalone music player for Mac. You can search for songs, manage your playing queue, and control everything from one place. Features: Five player modes: Floating player, Dock player, Notch Player , Menu Bar player and Lock Screen player Liquid Glass Dynamic Island Player Apple Music Sync Lyrics: Like, Shuffle, Repeat Up Next - Show you the upcoming song few seconds before start Built-in Spotify and Apple Music Queue management Support Real FFT waveform: inspired by the Dynamic Island Multiple players at once: View a list of all your active music players in one place Search in Spotify and Apple Music - Apple Music queue management Animated artwork for Apple Music on float and lock screen Music widget for Mac Support multiples apps - Handle music from Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube, Browsers and more Comparison: Apps like Silicio and Sleeve and Tunful are limited, mainly supporting Apple Music and Spotify without built-in search or full queue control. They also can’t display multiple players simultaneously and lack features like audio quality indicators and advanced Apple Music/Spotify queue handling Pricing: $8.90 - Lifetime license (up to 3 devices) Free 72-hour trial available Download: https://www.liqoria.com

The only thing missing would be a shortcut: if music’s playing in the background while I’m working on my Mac and I’m wondering ‘Who sings this?’, I’d like a hotkey – perhaps the right option key – that, when held down, opens the mini player at my cursor’s location. Releasing the key would then close the mini player, so I wouldn't need to move my cursor to the top of the screen; and continue working on my Mac.

There is a shortcut for multiple actions. let me know if I don't understand you clear

First of all the opening is too much. And it’s buggy for example it plays two songs at the same time and nowhere to stop the first song unless I quit Apple Music

u/AviorrokOPReply

Hi! This isn’t a bug. One player is from Liqoria and the other is from Apple Music. You can view all available players by right-clicking the left or right navigation buttons (next to the Previous/Next song controls), or you can set one of those buttons to open the player list. So this sounds more like UX feedback than a bug

It looks beautiful. Have you used ai while creating app?

u/AviorrokOPReply

Yes, I don’t think there are many apps today without AI code completion or something similar. AI is a great assistant, but I’ve never used it to build things for me. I use it as a helper, and I think that’s where it works best. It does its job much better as an assistant than as a fully AI apps

Hey, I own it, but in 1.5.2 the glass look was changed for the worse, so I’m sticking with the 1.5 - has that been fixed in the meantime?

u/AviorrokOPReply

Hi, Could you send me an email or a DM describing what happened to the glass effect? I haven’t received any similar reports from other users, so this is the first time I’ve heard about this. Are you running macOS 27? aviorprod at gmail.com

If you add Plex and Jellyfin as music provider options, you'll open up another avenue of interest - I'd be keen, but don't have Apple Music or Spotify

u/impROS01

the multiple players at once feature is actually smart, I always end up with Spotify and a youtube tab both playing and losing track of which is which. does it auto-detect new sources or do you have to add them manually?

u/AviorrokOPReply

Hi Depends on your settings you can set the main player to always be Spotify or use auto detect

u/Red4Shred

You know it’s good when you say “How did Apple didn’t do that???”

u/AviorrokOPReply

Thank you so much! I’m really happy you feel that way about Liqoria
