Oxidify 0.4.0

The window takes the layout of the current Spotify desktop client, with every feature carried over.

The new layout

  • One bar across the top. Back and forward, a centred Home button and search field, and your account sit above everything. Your Library, the page, and the side panel are rounded panels on a near-black ground, with the player bar along the bottom.
  • Your Library. A Create button, chips for Playlists, Artists, Albums, and Podcasts, a search, and a sort and view control that switches between recently played and your own order and between full and compact rows. Click the title to fold the panel down to a rail of covers; each cover still opens its page, takes a dropped song, and has its right-click menu. Pins, drag ordering, and Ctrl+B work as before.
  • Now Playing view. The first button at the right of the player bar, or the arrow in the corner of the playing cover, opens a panel beside the page with the cover large, the artist and their following, where the music is playing, and what is next in the queue. It shares the right column with the queue and the lyrics, one at a time, and is remembered between runs.
  • Home. Chips for All, Music, and Podcasts. The Podcasts chip shows the podcasts in your library and your saved episodes with links to their full pages. The shortcuts at the top are Liked Songs and the playlists played most recently.
  • Add to Liked Songs. The heart in rows, the player bar, and the Now Playing view is now a plus that becomes a filled check once the song is saved. B still toggles it, and Liked Songs keeps its heart.
  • Player bar. The mini player button moves to the bar's right end, beside the volume; the top bar keeps Refresh and Settings. Artist names in the bar no longer fall below the edge.

Compatibility

Settings and session files from earlier versions load unchanged: the library opens out rather than folded, the Now Playing view starts closed, and every earlier field keeps its value. Free-account alternate playback, Spotify Connect, the Winamp mini player, and the keyboard shortcuts are unchanged. This update adds no Spotify playback capability to Free accounts.

Downloads

Windows installers and portable ZIPs are available for x64 and ARM64. The macOS DMG contains a universal app for Apple Silicon and Intel. Linux archives are available for x64 and ARM64. checksums.txt lists SHA-256 hashes; the provenance file identifies the source commit and build run.

Automated tests run on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and every page, panel, and dialog of the new layout renders in the headless test suite. The interface was exercised on Linux in demo mode; macOS and Windows were compiled and tested by CI, not driven by hand. Live Spotify-account playback was not exercised for this release.

Windows SmartScreen or macOS Gatekeeper may warn about an unsigned download. See the installation guide for platform instructions.
