What's New in NaviBeat

1.3.3

August 7, 2026

The biggest update since launch, built almost entirely from tester and customer requests. ROCK-SOLID PLAYBACK ON THE ROAD - Track changes on cellular are now served from a local cache, so tunnels, handovers and weak signal cannot interrupt the music. - The moment your phone hops between WiFi and cellular is handled gracefully: downloaded music always plays instantly from your device. - The quality badge now reads the actual playing file, so it always tells the truth. CARPLAY - Choose where NaviBeat opens when your car connects: Favorite Artists, Albums, Downloads and more. - Optional: switch to downloaded music automatically for the whole drive. - Artist lists show images, respect your sort tags ("Lastname, Firstname" libraries sort correctly), and follow your Show All Album Artists setting. FOR CLASSICAL LISTENERS - Multi-movement works render as proper sections, stand-alone tracks stay clearly separate. - Add a whole work to the queue with one tap. - Cleaner movement titles and full-length work names. YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR WAY - Albums can be sorted by Artist. - Hide Library sections you never use (iPhone, matching the Mac). - Recently Released can show unplayed albums only. - Similar Artists can now come straight from your own server: works even with no external services connected, and AudioMuse-AI upgrades it to sonic similarity automatically. - Upcoming Concerts link on every artist page. DOWNLOADS AND OFFLINE - Download your entire library in one tap, on iPhone and Apple Watch. - Search and A-Z navigation inside Downloads. - If your server is unreachable, Home shows your downloaded music right away, and a new "Downloaded only" filter browses just what is on your device. NAVIBEAT MIXES - With the NaviBeat Mixes server plugin, Home gets a shelf of personal mixes that leads with the right mix for the time of day, with generated cover art and a New Mix button. Plus dozens of refinements across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Watch.

User reviews

Excellent Navidrome client

A fully-featured, rapidly developed and altogether outstanding client for Navidrome and other Subsonic servers. It supports everything I need on every device and the developer is kind and responsive.

Не плохо 👍

Пол дня по ходил прослушивая музыку в целом мне нравится. Но есть одно замечание буферит через два три трека mp3, FLAC, без разницы. Интернет LTE вроде стабильный. Со стороны сервера и прокси обратного все максимально оптимизировано путем добавления заголовков. Обратите внимание на это пожалуйста. А так пока на первый взгляд все нормально еще бы добавили заголовок идет тримминг или кэш.

Response from developer

Спасибо за отзыв и за детали, они дошли по адресу. Потоковое воспроизведение по LTE было серьёзно переработано, и обновление уже ожидает проверки Apple. Если что-то останется не так, напишите мне на nenad.dev@icloud.com, разберусь лично.

Almost perfect tvOS client

The app is beautiful, snappy and offers just about everything I expect from a tvOS client. The only thing that’s a probably a bug is, on the Library tab, the sub-tab (Albums, Favorites etc) cannot be reached via navigation. It skips to the selection instead, so it is basically impossible for me to explore the library that way.
Overall, great app

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words, and your Library focus report reached the right desk: tvOS focus behavior has been getting steady, deliberate work with every update. If you want the improvements early or have more notes, nenad.dev@icloud.com reaches me directly.

Красивая картинка, кривая реализация

С стороны выглядело как ультимативное решение для задачи работы на apple tv, в реальности крайне не удобный, не логичный UX, специфичный UI, много кривых элементов и спорных дизайн решений. Багов с запасом, пользоваться поиском невозможно, вернутся из части меню невозможно, радио не удаляется, и таких моментов очень много. В общем и целом разочарован, своих денег не стоит.

Response from developer

Спасибо за отзыв, он принят. Приложение обновляется почти каждую неделю, и большинство улучшений рождается именно из таких отзывов. Мне бы очень помог список конкретных моментов, которые мешают больше всего: напишите на nenad.dev@icloud.com, отвечаю лично.

好用,可惜手表版有容量限制

有可能让手表下载超过2.2G的歌曲吗?

Response from developer

谢谢你的评价。关于手表 2.2G 的容量问题,我很想了解你的具体使用场景,欢迎发邮件到 nenad.dev@icloud.com,我会亲自回复。手表端的下载功能还在持续改进中。
