An elegant Apple Music desktop client. No frippery, just quality. A better class of Cider 🍎
Sidra is Apple Music as a proper desktop citizen on Linux, macOS, and Windows - wired into each platform's native media subsystem, not bolted on top.
Most Apple Music desktop clients break the audio, mangle the playback controls, or bury you under a custom UI that Apple never signed off on - the problem is worst on Linux. Sidra takes the opposite approach: wrap music.apple.com directly, stay out of the way, and let the audio through untouched. Apple owns the interface and keeps it current; Sidra inherits every improvement automatically.
🎧 Untouched audio - no AudioContext, no DSP, no resampling
🎨 Six bundled themes - Catppuccin, Dracula, Gruvbox, Nord, Rosé Pine, and Solarized - plus a live-reloading custom.css escape hatch
📊 Last.fm scrobbling - opt-in; connect from the tray and approve Sidra in your browser
🎮 Discord Rich Presence - show what you are listening to
🔔 Desktop notifications - track changes, native to each platform
🌍 32 languages - localised storefront and interface
🧭 Back, Forward, and Reload - injected into both Apple Music and Apple Music Classical
🖱️ Scroll to change volume - point at the player bar volume control and scroll; 5% a notch
🎼 Apple Music Classical - switch at runtime from the tray Player submenu
🪟 Wayland and X11 support
🔊 Bi-directional MPRIS (org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.sidra) over D-Bus
