This app offers bit-exact playback of DSD and Hi-Res audio files from various local sources like SMB shares and UPnP/DLNA servers. It supports offline downloads and provides advanced audio features for audiophiles, including gapless transitions and DAC-aware settings.
2.1
October 2, 2026
NEW IN 2.1 • Big files start sooner: large FLAC, WAV and AIFF files can start playing while they download, instead of waiting for the whole file. Turn it on in Settings → Audio. • More DSD choices: set DSD conversion to Always, or play DSD as PCM on just the one DAC that needs it. The conversion level now goes from +6 down to 0 dB, one step at a time, for recordings that would clip at +6. • Your library, your order: choose how each list is sorted and laid out in Settings → Library → Browsing. Artist pages now show the newest albums first, and sorting albums by year adds a year index along the edge. • A tidier Artists list: artists who only appear on compilations no longer crowd the Artists list; you can bring them back in Settings → Library → Compilations. • A home for your DACs: DACs have their own page in Settings, one row per DAC, with Profile my DAC right there. Plug in a DAC the app doesn't know yet and the Audio page invites you to profile it. • iFi DACs, thanks to Axel: 1-bit now recognises iFi USB DACs, thanks to the profile Axel Arenas sent in with Profile my DAC. • More room to scroll: the tab bar shrinks while you scroll, with the mini player beside it, and comes back when you scroll up. The full changelog is at 1-bit.app/changelog. If anything seems off after updating, write to support@1-bit.app.
