Most of them have outdated, clunky UI/UX, and the look and feel really mattered to me. I've also always loved the karaoke-style synced lyrics in Spotify and Apple Music.
So I built Sonora, a local player with UI/UX inspired by Spotify/Apple Music, but for your own files.
What it does
- Synced, karaoke-style lyrics, fetched automatically from LRCLib
- Automatic metadata enrichment from Genius (cover art, title, artist), so your tracks always look right
- Local library with albums, artists, playlists and favorites
- Full local search
- Built-in tag editor
Cross-platform by design
It's built with Flutter, so the plan is for it to be available on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android. Windows and Linux work today, with the rest planned.
Open source
Sonora is fully open source under AGPL-3.0.

Feedback wanted
Just shipped the first beta. Would love to hear what features you wish your Spotify/Apple Music had, and what annoys you most about them.
