Pixie's music visualizer on iPad

Bring a full visualizer suite with you on iPhone and iPad. Choose a built-in preset or import supported .milk files. Imported presets sync through iCloud.

The player background takes its colors from your album art. Pixie blends them into soft gradients using the GPU in your iPhone or iPad.

Visualizer credit

Atmospheric Rift is an original Pixie MilkDrop adaptation inspired by MIT-licensed shader work by Yohei Nishitsuji.

Sound on iPhone & iPad

Built for the way you actually listen.

Your car stereo, gym headphones, and shower speaker each sound different. Pixie's custom audio engine on iPhone and iPad lets you adjust the sound for the setup you're using.

Adjust EQ and dynamics as you listen
Adjust EQ while you listen, or use compression to bring quiet passages closer to loud ones. Limiter and dynamic EQ controls are available too.
Sound Profiles for different connections
Save your EQ and dynamics in a Sound Profile. Assign profiles to Bluetooth, wired audio, or CarPlay so settings change with the connection type. Custom profiles sync privately through iCloud on supported devices.
Fewer volume jumps between tracks
Volume normalization uses on-device loudness measurements to reduce jumps between tracks. The same audio analysis builds the waveform you see during playback.
Play lossless files directly
Pixie plays most common music and audiobook formats directly, including supported lossless files without an extra lossy conversion. You can choose a smaller Plex stream to save cellular data.

AirPlay 2 on iPhone and iPad

Play to multiple speakers.

Play the same music in the kitchen and living room. Choose compatible speakers in Apple's AirPlay controls and adjust the volume for each one.

Speaker combinations depend on your devices and network.

You can also control a Pixie or Plexamp player over Wi-Fi from iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch.

An independent Apple Watch app

Leave your phone. Take your library.

Head out for a run with your music and audiobooks on your wrist. Browse, stream, and download from the Watch itself.

Stream over Wi-Fi or cellular, or play downloads offline.
