About AmpSonic: Self-Hosted Music

AmpSonic brings your personal Ampache, Subsonic, or Navidrome music library to iPhone and CarPlay. Navidrome connects through its Subsonic-compatible API. Browse artists, albums, songs, and playlists, search your whole library from a local index, and keep the player close at hand while you explore. Playback and offline features: - Stream from multiple servers and switch between them. - Download albums and playlists for offline playback. - Keep a cache of played tracks for unreliable connections. - Play in the background with lock-screen and Control Center controls. - Browse and play your library in CarPlay, with configurable tabs and buttons. - Play through AirPlay speakers. - Listen to radio stations saved on your music server. - Shuffle music and repeat a song or the queue. - Find recent albums and quick playback actions on the Home screen. - Choose and reorder the bottom menu, including pinned albums and playlists. - View local listening statistics. - Report completed plays to a supported server with an opt-in setting for each account. - Adjust local playback with ReplayGain and a 10-band equalizer. - Pick from eleven app icons with light, dark, and tinted variants. AmpSonic connects to the servers you configure. Your credentials stay in Apple Keychain, and the app does not collect your library or any data. An Ampache, Subsonic, or Navidrome server is required. AmpSonic does not include music or access to a hosted music service.
