A desktop player for the music server you already use.
Prism connects to Navidrome and other Subsonic-compatible servers, so you can play your library, manage the queue, and keep your playlists in one proper desktop app. If you use Subwave too, radio lives right there with the rest of your music.
It is still early, but there are builds for macOS and Windows.

Prism is pre-1.0 software. The main library and playback experience are in place, but app signing and auto-updates are not yet.
The current macOS and Windows builds are not yet code-signed, so your operating system may warn you before opening them. That is expected for now.
- On macOS, if Prism is blocked, open it once, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway for Prism.
- On Windows, if Microsoft Defender SmartScreen shows “Windows protected your PC,” select More info, then Run anyway.
Only bypass these warnings if you downloaded Prism from the releases page above.
- Open Prism.
- Enter the address of your Navidrome or other Subsonic-compatible server.
- Sign in, then listen to your library.
Once you're connected, Prism gives you a simple place to browse the artists, albums, and music already on your server.
Prism can tune into a Subwave station right alongside your library.
- Open Settings and select Radio.
- Under Subwave channels, add your station address, such as
https://subwave.example.com. - Return to the Radio item in the sidebar, select the station, and choose Tune In.
- While listening, you can check the schedule and booth feed, request a song, like the current track, or stop the stream.
Prism checks that the address is a Subwave station before connecting. You can save more than one station and switch between them later.
Once you're tuned in, Prism shows what is playing and keeps the station controls close by. Use the request button when you want to send something to the station.
Prism is pre-1.0 software. If something is broken or you have an idea, open a GitHub issue.
