Free music player for your own audio files. Five-band equalizer with presets, live visualiser, shuffle, repeat and speed control. Nothing is uploaded.
Almost every music player on a phone wants two things: your subscription, and your attention for something else. This one plays the files you already have, in the page you already have open, and gets out of the way.
There is no catalogue, no streaming service and no account. You choose the files. That is the whole arrangement.
Five bands at 60 Hz, 230 Hz, 910 Hz, 3.6 kHz and 14 kHz, each on its own slider, with presets for flat, rock, pop, electronic, classical and jazz.
These are real filters. Each band is a peaking biquad filter sitting in the audio path, so what you hear changes when you move a slider, rather than a label changing. Moving any slider switches the preset to custom instead of quietly overriding the choice you just made.
Rock lifts the low end and the top and pulls the middle back. Jazz does close to the opposite. Classical nudges both ends up and leaves the middle alone. Which one is right depends on your speakers and on how the music was mixed, which is why having the bands there matters more than having the presets.
From half speed to double, set with one slider. It is the kind of control that sounds unnecessary until you meet the recorded interview that was spoken at a deliberate crawl, or the tutorial whose narrator works through each step three times because he expects you to be rewinding.
A spectrum display that reads the actual audio through the Web Audio analyser, so the bars move because something is playing. It is not a timer driving an animation, which is the usual trick, and the difference is visible on quiet passages: a real one settles instead of continuing to jump.
Open your music, and the files become a playlist you can search by name, reorder and delete individually. Skip back or forward ten seconds without hunting along a progress bar. Shuffle re-rolls rather than landing on the track you just heard, and repeat works on one song or on the whole list.
Your library is stored on the device. Close the tab, restart the phone, and it is still there. There is a button that clears everything, which is the one you want when you hand the device to someone else.
Nowhere. The files are read in the browser and kept in its own database on the device. Nothing is uploaded, which is why the whole thing works with the network off and why there is no copy of your library on any server.
The consequence is that the library does not follow you to another device, and that clearing your browsing data erases it. For music you own and have backed up somewhere else, that is a fair trade. For a library you have nowhere else, know it before you rely on it.
It does not play music from a streaming service. There is no Spotify, no Deezer and no radio. It plays local files.
It does read the tags in your files: title, artist and embedded cover art are picked up on import, so the playlist shows what is actually written inside the music rather than a list of filenames. Where a file has no tags at all it falls back to the filename, and splits "Artist - Title" if it can.
It does not crossfade between tracks or play gaplessly, even though earlier versions showed controls for both. Those controls did nothing behind them and have been removed rather than left in place pretending. What it does do is fade each track in and out at the ends, and normalise the volume across tracks that were recorded at very different levels.
It has no recorder, no lyrics, no tagging editor and no multi-device sync.
