An unofficial web player for Apple Music emerges
Because Apple currently does not provide a full-on Apple Music player on the web, software engineer Naveed Golafshani took it upon himself to create one as a fun project.
He shared the project on Reddit yesterday.
Available at playapplemusic.com in a web browser, the app requires that you log in securely with your Apple ID account to access your iCloud music library, your Apple Music playlists, For You recommendations and much more.
Just click a song to play it
When logged in, you can access Browse, Library, For You and Search, just like in the Music app on iOS devices. The web app makes it easy to browse your listening history, see your recently added items, enjoy your custom playlists, add items to the Up Next queue, browse your music by artists, albums, songs and playlists.
The web player is also accessible via mobile devices
For those concerned about their privacy and security needn’t worry because Naveed’s web app takes advantage of Apple’s public JavaScript libraries and APIs for playing Apple Music tracks and managing users’ libraries. Apps like Algoriddim’s djay use these APIs.
Fully functional search
As evidenced by the screenshot included top of post, you can even choose your streaming quality by toggling between the 64Kbps and the default 256Kbps bit rate.
Apple currently provides a web player for Apple Music that anyone can use on their blog or website by embedding Apple’s code snippet. Apple’s web player uses an inline frame to provide “the most flexibility across the web,” including embedding songs, albums and playlists.
Browse your library by songs, artists or albums
It’s presently unclear, however, whether or not the Cupertino technology company intends to create a true web-based app for Apple Music subscribers but until it eventually arrives, be sure to check out this unofficial player.
How do you like Naveed’s app?
