BeeTunes 2.11 gives the digital player four new bodies, each with a screen of its own. • Dial: bead-blasted aluminum with a knurled platter on its face. Turn it to wind through the song, or hold it to stop the music under your finger. An OLED screen sits above, and a ring of orange lamps shows how far the song has gone. Silver or Jet Black. • Jelly: a clear tinted case with the circuit board, chips and AA battery showing through, a blue backlit screen, and a row of lamps for the song's progress. Purple or Teal. • Stick: a slim player on a lanyard with an ice-blue dot-matrix display. Rub the knurled ring to move through the song; the gloss on its body shifts as you tilt your iPhone. Jet Black, Silver, Pink or Blue. • E-Paper: a paper-white screen that shows covers in shades of gray and flashes as it refreshes for each new song. Graphite or White. • The aluminum body keeps its seven colors. Pick a body with the palette button in the player's corner; your Home Screen widgets wear it too. • Leave a machine playing in landscape while your iPhone charges and the screen stays on, so you can watch it turn on your bedside table. Pause, unplug or turn it upright and the screen sleeps as usual.
BeeTunes is a premium, skeuomorphic music player for your own audio files and streaming catalog — a shelf of warm, tactile machines, from a walnut turntable to a cassette deck. Import audio from Files or AirDrop, or search the streaming catalog when you want to hear something new. Then choose what plays it: a turntable, a CD deck, a cassette deck, a radio or a digital player. Each works the way the real thing does — the tonearm lowers, the reels turn, the dial lights up — and a swipe takes you to the next one. WHY BEETUNES • Local-first listening: your imported files stay on device and work offline. • Works with Apple Music: search and play songs or entire albums with an active subscription. • Your own music, your way: import MP3 and more from Files, iCloud Drive, or any app via AirDrop and "Open in…". • Emotional, tactile design that makes listening feel like playing a real record. FEATURES • Five hand-built machines, all free: turntable, CD deck, cassette deck, radio and digital player, each with its own controls and sounds. Drag the tonearm to move through a song, or wind the tape with a finger. • Search songs and albums, browse album tracks, and replay recent songs. Selected catalog music is automatically saved to your drawer alongside local music; long-press to remove it. Online playback requires an active subscription and internet access. • A skeuomorphic library — every track is a record tucked in its sleeve on a leather strip; tap to audition it in place. • Queue management: shuffle, repeat (off / all / one), an up-next queue, and title/artist search. • System integration: Now Playing, Lock Screen and Control Center controls, and a Lock Screen card that shows the machine you are playing on. Interactive Home Screen widgets for every machine: the small turntable is free, and one purchase, BeeTunes Pro, unlocks the rest for good. • An Apple Watch companion to browse and control playback, with Digital Crown volume. PRIVACY FIRST BeeTunes has no account and collects no data. Imported music stays on your devices. Catalog search and playback use Apple's MusicKit service, and playback history is stored on device for quick access.
