https://bytune.space/changelog New versions of ByTune, the free, open-source music player for Windows and macOS. en Sat, 07 Nov 2026 19:38:12 GMT https://bytune.space/changelog#v1.1.1 https://github.com/rishiteja21/ByTune/releases/tag/v1.1.1 Sat, 07 Nov 2026 19:38:12 GMT A compact mini player, and a window that opens the way you left it. Compact mini player: a button at the top of the mini player folds it into a slim bar with the cover, the song, like, previous, play and next. Designed by @bevinkatti. The window remembers its size and place, and opens maximized only if you left it maximized. If its screen is gone, it opens on your main screen. https://bytune.space/changelog#v1.1.0 https://github.com/rishiteja21/ByTune/releases/tag/v1.1.0 Sat, 07 Nov 2026 06:51:20 GMT The biggest update since launch: Rooms, Spotify playlists, endless AutoPlay and updates inside the app. Updates inside the app: ByTune checks for new versions and shows Update in the top bar. Windows installs it in the app; a Mac opens bytune.space. Endless AutoPlay keeps the music going with songs that fit when your queue runs out. Rooms: friends hear the same song at the same moment, each on their own computer. Rooms need a free ByTune account. Spotify: bring a public playlist over from its link, or paste a list of songs. Connect your account to see your playlists and liked songs. Downloads play offline from the file, with their title, artist and cover. A Home that learns from the songs you finish and skip, and Explore with moods, genres and podcasts. Replay by week, month, year and all time, with a story card to share and a listening streak. Lyrics from more sources, moving covers in full screen, a new look, a 10-band equalizer (thanks @voidfant) and trackpad swipes. Windows: closing the window keeps ByTune in the tray with the music paused. macOS: no more "ByTune is damaged"; needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. https://bytune.space/changelog#v1.0.1 https://github.com/rishiteja21/ByTune/releases/tag/v1.0.1 Fri, 09 Oct 2026 08:30:57 GMT An output device picker, and a fixed Dock icon on the Mac. Output device picker: send playback to any speaker or headset. The list follows plugging, unplugging and Bluetooth pairing as they happen. macOS: the Dock icon shows properly again. https://bytune.space/changelog#v1.0.0 https://github.com/rishiteja21/ByTune/releases/tag/v1.0.0 Tue, 06 Oct 2026 19:02:39 GMT The production release for Windows and macOS. It reset the version line, replacing every earlier ByTune release. YouTube Music streaming with search, charts, moods, a queue and playlists.

Replay listening history, a mini player, crossfade and playback speed control. Library, playlists and preferences synced through a ByTune account.
