Music Garden

Modern streaming features. Music you actually own. Synced lyrics, Artist Bios, Tour Dates, Widgets, CarPlay, and NAS streaming. No subscription. No tracking. Just yours.

Stop renting your music. Music Garden plays the music you actually own FLACs, MP3s, hi-res downloads, anything sitting on your phone, NAS, or cloud drive. No subscription. No tracking. No songs vanishing overnight.

Music Garden is built on a simple idea: the music you bought is yours, and your player should act like it. We never look at your files. We don't have an account. We don't have an ad network. Your library lives where you put it, and Music Garden just makes it sound good and look good.

WHAT IT PLAYS

• MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, OGG, and Opus — including hi-resolution lossless up to 24-bit/192kHz. • Import from iCloud Drive, the Files app, AirDrop, Google Drive, Dropbox, your Synology NAS, or any WebDAV-compatible server (QNAP, TrueNAS, Asustor, Nextcloud, ownCloud, and others). • Stream full albums from your NAS over Wi-Fi without filling up your phone.

BUILT FOR REAL LISTENING

• True gapless playback — perfect for live albums and concept records that flow track-to-track. • Optional 1-12 second crossfade. • Multi-disc albums auto-detected on import. • Rename albums, merge releases that imported as separate copies, and reassign disc numbers per-track without touching your original files. • Sample rate, bit depth, channel count, and file format shown right on the Now Playing card.

ON EVERY DEVICE YOU OWN

• iPhone, iPad, and Mac with native designs for each. • Apple Watch — control playback from your wrist. • CarPlay — purpose-built widgets for Tour Dates, Listening Report, and Now Playing. • Home and lock screen widgets, including small, medium, large, and extra-large Now Playing variants.
