Everything SugarSpin does

Every feature built because we actually use them. No fluff, no marketing copy, just what's in the box.

πŸ“Ί

Stage Mode NEW

A full screen big-screen view for the TV or 4K monitor: rotating artist photography (or your own album covers), a real scrubbable audio waveform, the track’s format and DR on display, optional giant synced lyrics. Pick Stage, hit Showtime.

πŸ“Š

Dynamic Range Analysis NEW

Every track scored with a TT-style dynamic range (DR) analysis. Browse a new Hi Res tab grouping your library into Reference Grade (DRΒ 14+), Audiophile, Balanced, Compressed, and Brick Walled tiers. Spot loudness war casualties at a glance. Real math, no cloud.

🌐

One Address, Everywhere NEW

One server address that works at home and away. Enter it once, the app even fills it in for you. Pair it with free Tailscale and your home address keeps working on cellular, no second URL, nothing to switch.

Choose Your Accent NEW

Signature gold leads, and you pick the one highlight that rides with it: Deep Teal, VU-Meter Blue, or Warm Cream. It colors the active page, the player progress, and selected tabs. High-end retro hi-fi, your way.

β–Ά

Play On Any Device NEW

Press play wherever you are and that device becomes the one making sound. The Stream To sheet shows every device and BluOS / NAD speaker from any screen, phone included — tap to move the music there. Name your devices, set a default so playback lands where you want, and sign one out, all from the one sheet. Always in sync.

πŸ—‚

Shelves & Drag to Reorder NEW

Group favorite albums onto Shelves, like a record shelf. Then arrange your Shelves, Playlists, and Liked Songs exactly how you like, just hold and drag. The tiles slide apart to make room and your order is saved, right through to the Home screen.

πŸ“ˆ

Levels Meter View NEW

A live meter bridge in Display Settings: peak, loudness (LUFS), stereo width, dynamic range, LRA, and bass energy, all reading off whatever's playing in real time. It only watches the sound, never changes it. For when you like to see your music as well as hear it.
