Playlist — Main Library View

Download from almost anywhere

Get tracks from YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, and hundreds more sources. yt-dlp installs and updates itself.

Discover missing music

Find the tracks that your albums miss, and the albums that your artists miss.

Smart playlists

Build playlists from rules: genre, year, play count, and more. The playlists update themselves.

Listening statistics

See plays per day and your most played tracks, artists, and albums. All data stays on your machine.

Last.fm scrobbling

Send now-playing updates and scrobbles. Plays made offline queue and submit later.

Watched folders

Select folders and the app imports new audio files from them. Bandcamp purchases land in your library.

Device sync

Copy playlists to USB drives, SD cards, and portable players. Removed tracks clean up on the device.

Rich metadata

MusicBrainz and Last.fm supply album art, genres, and release data. A tag editor writes tags into your files.

Full local playback

Queue, shuffle, repeat, crossfade, and volume normalization. Playback continues from the system tray.

The ethos

Your collection, your responsibility

Playlist gives you autonomy over your music data. Use that freedom responsibly. Buy albums, back creators, go to shows.
