## What is Medley Music Player?

Medley is a music player that looks like the pre-iOS 6 Music app.

Medley is not a pixel-perfect re-creation of the Music app. For example, it uses San Francisco instead of Helvetica, and almost all the icons are SF Symbols. You can play music from Apple Music if you’ve already added them to your music library. But Medley doesn’t support browsing the Apple Music catalog or adding songs from Apple Music into your library.

I hope you’ll like it.

## Key features

- Pre-iOS 6 Music app interface
- Custom gradients and shadows
- SF Symbols integration
- Plays music from your library
- Customizable icons

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-08-03*

I mean skeuomorphism and music are like my 2 favorite things, so yay!

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-06-16*

Love this app though I hate that it’s not supported with spotify and only apple music, developer if ur reading this pls support it with spotify and also to make the cover flow like the original, there’s multiples albums showing on the screen it has to be one by one but other than that it’s a really good app

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-05-03*

I feel like an iPad version would be nice :)

### 5/5 — Best skeuo music player ive used

*2026-04-07*

This is so skeuo, I use it for my ios 6 theme and its EPIC, if you want an ad-free skeuomorphic music player, this is the app for you

### 4/5 — add Local File Support Pls

*2026-04-05*

addd Local File Support

### 4/5 — Almost Perfect

*2026-03-08*

My main issues are that you can’t give songs start ratings, (it’s a great way to sort your library) and I wish you could customize the tabs at the bottom. Other than that it’s a very clean and simple music player for a fine price.

### 5/5 — Skeuomorphism and the illusion of progress

*2025-12-24*

I initially purchased Medley due to my interest in the Skeuomorphism design community and an urge for nostalgia of the “good old days” with digital interfaces. I can remember, vividly, this style of music player from my youth.

The design is perfect, almost an exact copy of the former design before flat boxes became the staple of tech design. It’s simple and easy to use, intuitive too. However, it has some shortcomings as a result of technological advancements, namely the album art which doesn’t quite reach the top and bottom of the screen, courtesy of the altered screen shape of modern devices. It’s a minor issue, and the app works greatly regardless, but an annoyance nonetheless.

Landscape mode is also a highlight of this app and something in which I love to use. If you’re attempting to detox yourself from algorithms and modern flat design then Medley is perfect!

### 1/5 — App fecha sozinho

*2025-12-13*

App não suporta as quantidade de musicas no dispositivo, trava e fecha

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2025-11-12*

Exactly what I was looking for. If only you could release sister apps for the calendar, time, notes, and voice memo apps!

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-11-01*

I had an older iOS 5 iPod touch 4 but I got an iPod touch 7 for more games and more storage and I hated the Apple Music from iOS 15 and then I found this app and I love it and makes it feel more like an iPod touch
