Your music, without subscriptions. Thyron is an offline music player for your own audio files. Enjoy a clean, redesigned library, organize your collection, and transfer music directly between your phone and computer. PLAY YOUR OWN MUSIC Import your audio files and listen without an internet connection. Enjoy lossless FLAC and ALAC, along with MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV and AIFF. Your music stays on your devices. MAKE YOUR LIBRARY YOURS Create playlists with custom covers. Search for tracks, artists and playlists, or find a song inside a playlist. Search handles small typos, so you can find your music even when you don’t remember the exact spelling. EDIT TITLES, ARTISTS AND ARTWORK Missing a title or artist? Hold a track and tap the pencil to edit its details. Add, replace or remove artwork. Changes are saved in the audio file in your library without changing how it sounds. TRANSFER TRACKS AND PLAYLISTS Move your whole library or send selected tracks and playlists to another device running Thyron on the same local network. Playlists travel with their tracks and covers. Files already on the receiving device are reused, and existing tracks are not deleted. No cloud server is involved. ENJOY CONSISTENT VOLUME Reduce volume differences between tracks without modifying your audio files. Volume normalization is enabled by default and can be turned off in Settings. KEEP LISTENING Use shuffle and repeat, keep music playing in the background, and control playback from the lock screen. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No analytics. No subscription. Your library and settings stay under your control. Thyron does not provide music or a streaming catalog. Users are responsible for ensuring they have the right to use and transfer their audio files.

Your files. Your device. A music player for the files you bring yourself. No sign-up, no subscription, no ads – and no connection to the outside. This app makes no network connections at all. In airplane mode it behaves exactly the same. ADDING MUSIC Under "Songs", tap the plus button at the top right and pick your files – from iCloud Drive, from this iPhone or from connected storage. Or share an audio file straight here from another app: the Files app, AirDrop from a Mac, an email. A bar above the list shows how far the import has got. If a song is already there, the app says so and does not add it twice. ORGANISE AND FIND β€’ Playlists with their own artwork and their own sort order β€’ Favourites with one tap on the heart β€’ Search across songs, albums, artists and playlists at once β€’ Ten sort orders, from "Recently Added" to "Most Played" β€’ Select several songs by dragging across the circles β€’ Trash: deleted items stay for 30 days and can be restored SOUND β€’ Six-band equalizer, your own settings can be saved β€’ Volume levelling to the broadcast standard ITU-R BS.1770, so it does not jump between tracks β€’ Skip silence at the start and end β€’ Smooth crossfade into the next track, lead time freely adjustable β€’ Shift the pitch in semitones and cents – without changing the tempo β€’ Tempo from 50 to 200% – without changing the pitch ARTWORK Artwork comes from the file itself, if there is any embedded. Otherwise you set one by hand and decide while cropping which part of it to use. YOUR DEVICE, YOUR DATA There is no server for this app to talk to. Nothing is transmitted, nothing collected, nothing analysed. Your library lives on your iPhone alone. ALSO Lock screen and Control Centre, headphone buttons and Bluetooth remotes, background playback, light and dark mode, VoiceOver, German and English. A sample song is included so there is something to listen to right away.
