Integrations
System media controls, Discord, the mini player and more.
System media controls
Glyph shows the current song in your system's media controls and reacts to media keys.
| System | Where |
|---|---|
| Windows | media overlay, lock screen and taskbar buttons (like, previous, play, next) |
| macOS | Now Playing in Control Center |
| Linux | MPRIS, used by GNOME, KDE and most panels |
While Glyph is in the background, the window title follows the playing song.
Discord
Settings › Integrations › Discord Rich Presence shows the song, artist, album and cover in your Discord profile. It is off by default. Builds that ship their own Discord application need nothing else; otherwise enter an application ID from the Discord Developer Portal.
Mini player
A small window that stays on top. Right-click its button in the player bar to open it as a card with a big cover or as a slim bar. The default style is under Settings › Appearance › Mini player.
AI assistants
Assistants such as Claude can control Glyph through MCP. See AI assistants.
Music Player Daemon
Glyph can play on an MPD on another computer and act as its remote. See Sound.
Last.fm
With a Last.fm key Glyph plays radio from similar songs, shows similar artists and imports your loved tracks.
