Customizable home screen

- Metadata editing, artwork tools, and smart collections built in

Metadata mastery
Built-in tag editor
MiniMoon has a full metadata editor with artwork tools and fast search. You can fix tags across MP3, AAC, FLAC, Opus, and AIF files without stopping the music or opening a second app.
Collections built right
Smart collections
Collections do everything playlists do and more. View one as a list of tracks or as a wall of albums, and keep long listening sessions intact.
Context matters
Custom artist pages
Create custom artist pages with your own notes and imagery. It gives the things you know about a record somewhere to live: where you found it, why you keep going back to it.
Desktop mini player
Smaller, not simpler
Keep MiniMoon nearby while you work on your Mac. The mini player holds album art, search, queue context, transport controls, and listening status in a small window, so you can change what is playing without losing your place in the album.
