Important Notes

Stream Music is not an online music player and does not provide any songs itself. You must install one of the following on your NAS or server: Subsonic, Navidrome, Emby, Jellyfin, AudioStation, or Plex. Then, connect using the Stream Music client. If you are unfamiliar with any of these software options, it is not recommended to use Stream Music.

Features of Stream Music

  • Supports multiple music services: Subsonic, Navidrome, Emby, Jellyfin, AudioStation, Plex
  • Compatible with Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows platforms
  • Supports lyrics display; custom APIs allow music services without native lyrics interfaces to display lyrics
  • Clean interface designed with Chinese user habits in mind, offering a nearly identical experience across all platforms

You need to use any decompression tool to extract the .msix file.

Is Payment Required?

Stream Music can be downloaded and used for free. However, some advanced features require in-app purchases. The author, xiaoz, has not yet paid as most advanced features are not needed. For a detailed comparison of features, see: https://music.aqzscn.cn/docs/features.

Personal Experience

I have been using Stream Music for over half a year. Here are my thoughts:

  • Clean interface with user-friendly logic
  • The default theme background feels a bit flashy; free users cannot change themes
  • Supports connecting to only one music service platform at a time

Conclusion

In summary, Stream Music is an excellent cross-platform NAS music player that provides a great solution for users who want to enjoy their music seamlessly across various devices. Its powerful features and support for multiple music service platforms ensure a consistent experience regardless of location. Although Stream Music does not provide music content and requires users to set up and manage their own music libraries, its customization options and user-friendly interface make managing and playing music simple and enjoyable. If you already have a compatible NAS setup and want to experience high-quality music playback on all your devices, Stream Music is definitely worth trying.

Additionally, xiaoz has created a dedicated WeChat group for NAS users. If you are interested, you can join by scanning the QR code below. If the group is full or expired, you can add xiaoz's WeChat ID: xiaozme, and please note "NAS Player" in your request, and I will invite you to the group.
