Music.app + Last.fm
Apple Music and Last.fm on Mac
Playstate follows Music.app locally on your Mac and sends qualifying listens to Last.fm. The same desktop companion can also follow supported HomePod and Sonos playback.
One view across listening contexts
Music does not always stay in one player or one room. Playstate gives local Music.app playback and supported network speakers a consistent now-playing surface.
Artwork without a full player window
Pin a compact artwork window to the desktop, resize it, or rely on the menu bar while you work.
Last.fm sign-in is optional
Use Last.fm for automatic scrobbling, or use Playstate simply as a desktop playback companion.
Try it on your Mac
The full app is free for your first 30 minutes of listening — actual playback time, not calendar days, and no card required. A lifetime license is US$24, paid once.
