Simplify: control your favourite music players App Reviews

its a good music player for multi music app control. please fix the offen crash problem, it will be a good app ever .

Have been trying to find a Pandora player for a while, missing it because its icon resembles spotify. I tought it’s only for spotify.

I have not actually downloaded or tried any other apps to allow control, notification and awareness of what I have playing on Spotify, but I did look at and read through the descriptions for most of the alternatives. Simplify was about the most expensive (but only $5, so that’s a relative term), but it was SO WORTH IT! Simplify is exactly what I was looking for. Unobtrusive identification of the song/artist that currently playing in either the menubar or in a floating ‘widget’. Notification of song/artist whenever the song changes, just like other Apple notificaitons. Album art by clicking on the menubar icon or visible all the time in the floating widget. The floating widget. Simplify called it the ‘Jacket’ and it is brilliant! A welcome surprise. You can position it wherever you want and set it to stay on top of all other windows, or not. There are several different ‘themes’ and it looks like with some light development background (HTML, CSS) you can design your own themes. I found one that attractively displays a headline of the song name, with the artist display as a subhead underneath and a white circle that shows the time elapsed for the song (Solar > To the Right). Just what I want, and wasn’t even looking for. Excellent app. It has immediately boosted my enjoyment of Spotify immensely. WELL WORTH the $5. Kudos to the developers!

So neat! Please, consider adding a button “Save to Your Music” for Spotify and “Love” for iTunes. Thank you.

This is a is helpful app for me and everyone using, I can control any music player by using this app, so it’s a good app, thank you for your app.

I looked all over for apps that would be accessible via the menu bar and let me control my iTunes music. This does an excellent job with all information being in the system menu. Everything else is a cherry on top. And with the recent update SoundCloud is controllable via the widget and lets me see the same information as if the music is coming from my iTunes collection.

This app is not only useless, it’s a huge pain - it won’t open properly no matter how you go about it, and then, when trying to delete/update/remove it, the computer insists you’re not able to because it’s “still running.” The only way to finally shut it off is to into your activity monitor and literally force stop the process. Huge waste of time and money and an unnecessary headache.
