Sonant for Mac

A Spotify and Apple Music controller for your Mac menu bar.

$4.99

Version 1.1.0

Sonant overview

Sonant is a glass-style controller that lives in your Mac menu bar, giving you full control over Spotify and Apple Music without ever opening their windows. See album art, scrub through tracks with a seekable progress bar, and watch a live audio visualizer powered by a CoreAudio process tap. Sonant auto-detects which player is active and updates instantly through native push notifications, so it stays responsive without draining battery.

Features:
  • Glass-style menu bar pill with album art and playback controls
  • Seekable progress bar with hover-to-reveal scrubbing
  • Live audio visualizer reading your actual audio output in real time
  • Auto-detection between Apple Music and Spotify
  • Global keyboard shortcuts: Cmd+Shift+Space (play/pause), Cmd+Shift+Right (skip forward), Cmd+Shift+Left (skip back)
  • Sleep timer with right-click access (15, 30, 45, 60, 90 minutes)
  • Power Mode: Low Power, Normal, Power User profiles, with auto-follow for macOS Low Power Mode
  • No Dock icon, no extra windows, no clutter
Privacy:

Sonant collects no listening data, no email, no telemetry. Optional anonymous install pings (install ID, version, country) can be turned off in settings.

Free 7-day trial included. $4.99 one-time purchase, no subscription.

What's new in version 1.1.0

Major update
  • New Settings window with five sections — Customization, Widget, General, Accounts, About. Everything that used to live at the bottom of the right-click menu now has a dedicated home one click away.
  • New always-on widget. A floating Liquid Glass panel that shows the now-playing track wherever you drag it. Toggle artwork, title, artist, progress bar, transport buttons, and the current lyric line independently. Quick-toggle from the menu, full controls in Settings → Widget.
  • Customizable global keyboard shortcuts. Change ⌘⇧ Space / ⌘⇧ ← / ⌘⇧ → to any chord, or disable them entirely. Settings → General → Keyboard Shortcuts.
  • Pill is now configurable. Hide the album art, visualizer, transport buttons, or track title independently. The pill width auto-shrinks to match what you've left visible.
  • Right-click menu can be trimmed. Hide Up Next, Love / Suggest Less, Audio Sources, Power Mode, Listening Stats, and Recently Played sections individually.
  • Lyrics ribbon now line-wise, with a smooth Apple-Music-style slide between lines.
  • Cleaner rounded corners on the right-click menu and Now Playing preview — the shadow halo now traces the rounded shape exactly.
  • Many small fixes: progress bar in the widget actually scrubs, hover animations on all transport buttons, smoother window backgrounds against bright wallpapers.
