Media keys
Media keys and global shortcuts work from any window.
What it adds
It's the normal YouTube Music site in its own window, and you sign in with your usual account.
Volume past 100%
Turn quiet tracks up past 100%, with a limiter so they don't crackle.
Discord presence
Shows the song and artwork on your Discord status, with a Listen Along button for friends.
Last.fm scrobbling
Scrobbles as you listen. You pick how much of a track has to play first.
Ad blocking
Blocks ads and trackers. It's off until you turn it on.
What your phone is playing
When the desktop is idle, it shows what your phone is playing on the same account.
Addons
Load your own CSS, page scripts or code, and manage them in settings.
Remote control API
A local REST and WebSocket API on port 9863 for remotes and other apps.
Listen Along
Start a room and your friends hear what you're playing, at the same point in the song. When you skip, they skip.
They can join from a link, an 8 letter code or the button on your Discord status. You can hand the controls to anyone in the room.
Friends don't need the app. The link plays your audio live in any browser.
Volume boost
Some uploads are too quiet even at full volume, so the slider goes past 100%. You choose how far: 150, 200, 300 or 500%.
The boosted part of the bar changes colour, and a limiter keeps loud peaks from crackling. You can turn the limiter off.
Getting it
Install
Get the installer from the releases page. On Windows it can update itself.
Moving over
Coming from YouTube Music Desktop App? Your settings and sign-in carry over on first launch.
Something broken?
Open an issue on GitHub. Nightly builds have debug logging on, which helps me find the problem.
