Lofi is a mini Spotify player with visualizations. It is not a replacement for the Spotify Desktop app, nor does it play music independently of the Spotify app; instead, Lofi works alongside it to provide a more intuitive and pleasant access to common features. Lofi also displays cover art and track info stylishly and it facilitates WebGL-powered audio visualizations for both Windows, MacOS and Linux. In other words, it's a "tiny Spotify player" or a "mini mode" to enhance the Spotify desktop app.
- A small,
1:1aspect ratio player depicting album art - An always-on-top "widget-like" app
- Minimalist (no extraneous controls)
- Multiple-screen capable
- Windows, MacOS and Linux compatible
- Visualization-ready (WebGL)
- ≤ 100MB memory footprint
Lofi now uses lrclib.net as the main source for lyrics. When a song is played, the app automatically searches for synchronized lyrics using the track title and artist name via the lrclib public API. Everything is fetched from the lrclib community-powered database.
