Customer support: 3.0

Great musicplayer with a lots of features. But since the careless programmed music app is still needed because of store and CD import, there should be a full sync possible with for instance PLAYCOUNT. Then I would give it five stars and fully switch.

Seriously? Dark mode for Apple has been available for how many YEARS now, and Swinsian still doesn't have a dark option? It's a decent player, but please, developer: Enter the 21st century.

I'm awed by Swinsian's speed when editing tags vs. the last version of iTunes, which at times is glacial. One thing I miss though: Doug Scripts for iTunes really help when editing tags en masse. Anybody know if there's any equivalent Apple Scripts for Swinsian?

Look, everyone has said it here. I upgraded to a new MacBook Pro M1. It is wonderful and ultra-speedy, but the new Music app sucks big time as several important features were eliminated. Especially sorting features. Swinsian improves on all of that. A simple functional interface that lets me enjoy my music more. This was a no-brainer to get!
