Toggle Music
Apple Music and Spotify, in your menu bar.
macOS 14.0 or later · Version 1.2.1
Cover Flow
Flip through your albums in a 3D carousel. The way music used to feel.
…or a clean grid
Prefer it simple? Switch to a tidy grid of covers in a single tap.
Now Playing
The current track full-size, with artwork and playback controls: play, pause and skip right from the panel.
Playlists, pinned
Your Apple Music playlists are in the same panel. Right-click any album or playlist to pin it to the top.
Make it yours
Switch between Apple Music and Spotify, flip the layout and launch at login, all from one tidy settings panel.
Also inside
Instant search (Apple Music)
Type to search your whole Apple Music library — songs, albums and playlists — filtered live by title or artist. Tap a song and it plays.
Apple Music and Spotify
Switch between the two in a tap. On Spotify, Toggle Music controls the app you already have, Free or Premium, and builds a library from your recent listening; browsing and search stay in the Spotify app.
Queue it up (Apple Music)
Shift-click any track to send it to Up Next, ready to play. Queue control is Apple Music only — Spotify's app doesn't allow it.
Adaptive Now Playing
A full now-playing view that glows with colors pulled from the album artwork.
Native and lightweight
Built natively for macOS in Swift. No Electron, no heavy web views — just a fast app that uses very little of your machine.
Updates inside the app
Toggle Music checks for new versions on its own and installs them in place. Every update is signed, so the app refuses anything that isn't genuinely from me.
Toggle Music ships outside the Mac App Store: a notarized DMG, signed with an Apple Developer ID, that updates itself in place. Every update is checked against a signing key baked into the app, so a tampered download is refused even if it arrives from the right address.
Release notes
- Spotify support: control the Spotify app you already have, on Free or Premium.
- The library now includes local files from Music.app alongside your Apple Music albums.
- Unified album sorting across every source.
Good to know
Which music services does it work with?
Apple Music and Spotify. Toggle Music is a companion player: it plays from your existing library and subscription, it doesn't stream music on its own.
Do I need Spotify Premium?
No. Spotify works on Free and Premium, because Toggle Music plays through the Spotify desktop app you already have.
Is it the same on Apple Music and Spotify?
No. Apple Music is the full experience: Cover Flow, grid, whole-library search, Now Playing, queue and pinning. On Spotify, Toggle Music controls playback and builds a library from what you listen to, while browsing and search happen in the Spotify app.
Which Macs does it run on?
Any Mac with Apple Silicon, on macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
How do I unlock it?
Download the app for free, then buy a license key. It lands in your inbox within seconds. Paste it in once and Toggle Music is unlocked for good.
How many Macs can I use it on?
One purchase activates Toggle Music on up to 2 of your Macs.
Are updates included?
Yes. Toggle Music is in active development, and updates are free and install right inside the app. Pay once, keep every future version.
Is it safe to install?
Yes. Toggle Music is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so it opens with no security warnings.
What if it's not for me?
There's a 14-day money-back guarantee. Write to me and I'll refund the full price, no questions asked.
