## What is Vinylock?

Vinylock is a native music player for your own Navidrome server.

If you self-host your music library with Navidrome, Vinylock gives you a fast, fully native way to browse and stream it on iPhone, iPad, and Mac — no ads, no subscriptions, no third-party cloud in between. Just your library, your rules.

Your library, properly organized
Browse by artist, album, song, genre, or playlist, with fast alphabetic scrubbing through large libraries. Mark favorites, build playlists, and pick up recently played or recently added albums right from Home.

Take it offline
Download albums and songs for offline listening — perfect for flights, commutes, or spotty connections. Original quality is always preserved for downloads, with adjustable streaming quality for WiFi and cellular separately.

A real equalizer
Vinylock includes a full parametric EQ  — Bass Booster, Vocal Booster, Small Speakers, Loudness, and more — off by default, on when you want it.

Built for how you actually listen
   • Full CarPlay support for browsing and playback on the road
   • Background audio with lock screen and Control Center controls
   • Internet radio stations
   • Sleep timer, shuffle, repeat, and a persistent play queue
   • Animated cover art playback for albums with animated artwork

Discover what's missing (optional)
Connect a Lidarr instance to browse and request albums you don't have yet, right alongside your existing library.

Make it yours
Choose from a wide range of accent colors, each with a matching alternate app icon, and switch between light, dark, or system appearance. Vinylock is fully localized in English, Spanish, French, German, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese.

Requirements
Vinylock connects to a Navidrome server (or any Subsonic/OpenSubsonic-compatible server) that you or someone you trust runs. It does not include or provide any music itself.
