Gapless playback
Tracks run into each other the way the record intended, across every provider.
Your whole library. One native app.
Spotify, YouTube Music, Subsonic and your local files in a single window. Written in Rust on GPU-accelerated GPUI — not a browser in a costume.
$ brew install --cask nolight132/tap/sonora
Free and open source · macOS, Linux, Windows · No account required
One player, four sources
Spotify YouTube Music Subsonic Local files
Install in one line.
Prebuilt binaries for every platform, plus a Nix flake and a Home Manager module.
Install with Homebrew
brew install --cask nolight132/tap/sonora
Clear the quarantine flag
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Sonora.app
Apple quarantines unsigned apps, so the second command is required after a first install.
Built like a desktop app,
because it is one.
GPUI renders the whole interface on the GPU. Playback, library and lyrics all run in the same Rust process.
Audio normalization
Levels stay even when a playlist jumps between a 2003 master and a 2024 one.
Synced and karaoke lyrics
Line-by-line and word-by-word timing, with romanization for non-Latin scripts.
One library, many sources
Follow, like and organise inside each provider without leaving the app.
Custom themes
Eight built-in looks plus system, adaptive tinting, and every token overridable.
Cross-platform, natively
One Rust binary on macOS, Linux and Windows. No Electron, no bundled browser.
Eight looks, plus your own.
Dark, light, midnight, forest, ocean, rose, lavender, amber — or follow the system. Adaptive tinting takes its colour from the artwork, and every token underneath is overridable.
