For macOS · Apple Silicon
Your Plex music, playing radio that learns you.
Start a station from any track in your Plex library and teach it with a thumb. PlexTunes wraps it in a proper hi-fi deck — local FLAC and MP3, a real 10-band EQ and a glowing spectrum visualizer.
Free · 50 plays a month · £10/yr for unlimited
A radio station for an audience of one
Pick any track and PlexTunes builds a station around it — from your own Plex library, not a streaming catalogue or an algorithm trained on everyone else. Thumb a track up and the station leans in. Thumb it down and it never comes back.
- 01 Start a station from any track — one click.
- 02 Thumbs up and down teach it your taste.
- 03 The queue stays ahead of you — fresh, no repeats.
Built for people who care how it sounds
A radio that learns
The headline act: stations built from your own library that get sharper with every thumb. See how it works.
Native Plex streaming
Sign in with Plex, browse artists, albums, genres and your most-played, and stream straight from your server — Plexamp-style, no browser.
Your local library
Point it at your folders and it scans MP3, FLAC and other lossless in seconds. Browse by artist and album, search everything.
Real 10-band EQ
A proper graphic equaliser with presets, running on the Web Audio graph — not a gimmick. Set it and it sticks.
Spectrum & scope
A recessed LCD visualiser with amber peak caps, driven by the live audio — the heartbeat of the whole interface.
Light & dark
A near-black "LCD Deck" by night, a clean light room by day. Your play history is always a click away.
Daylight or dark — all about the music
Free to live with. Cheap to love.

Good to know
What does the free version include?
Everything — Plex, local library, learning radio, EQ, visualiser and themes. The only limit is 50 track plays per calendar month. The count resets on the 1st.
What do I get for £10 a year?
Unlimited plays and automatic updates. It's a yearly subscription that keeps a small, independent project alive — cancel any time and you drop back to the free tier.
Do I need a Plex server?
No. PlexTunes plays your local files perfectly well on its own. Plex is optional — connect it if you want to stream your server library and use the learning radio.
Does it play lossless?
Yes — FLAC and WAV play natively, alongside MP3, AAC and M4A. (Apple Lossless / ALAC isn't supported yet.)
Which Macs are supported?
macOS on Apple Silicon. It's a native desktop app built on Electron, delivered as a signed .dmg with automatic updates.
