What is Nuvo Music Player?

Nuvo is a free, open-source desktop music player for Linux, Windows and macOS. It plays YouTube, SoundCloud and the music folders on your computer from one library and one queue.

You never make an account. Your library, playlists and listening history stay in an encrypted database on your machine, and a 24-word recovery phrase opens it if the system keyring goes missing.

Features:

  • One search field (Ctrl K) with YouTube and SoundCloud results in one ranked list
  • Synced lyrics and karaoke by line, word, fill or step; lyrics timed on your own computer for songs that have none
  • 10-band equalizer with 12 presets, speed, pitch, reverb, crossfade, gapless playback and loudness normalization
  • Mixes on Home made from your plays and likes, with a dislike button and "Not interested"
  • Playlist import by link (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, YouTube, SoundCloud, Yandex Music) or from Soundiiz, TuneMyMusic, Google Takeout, CSV, M3U, XSPF and TXT files
  • Song recognition from a file, a link, the microphone or what your computer plays (the last two on Linux)
  • Statistics you can pause, export or delete
  • Nine themes, wallpapers (photo, GIF or video) and custom CSS
  • MPRIS, media keys, a panel widget for GNOME, Plasma and Waybar, Last.fm scrobbling
  • SOCKS5 and HTTP proxies with a check per service

No telemetry. Builds for x64 and arm64.
