About
PodCenter is a modern control center for your iPod (and other devices that sync through the Finder).
PodCenter replaces Apple's legacy tools (Finder and Apple Music) and gives you complete control over transferring your music to classic iPods.You see exactly what will be transferred, what needs to be converted and what will be skipped - without “silent” errors.
Features:
• Full synchronization transparency
You see exactly which files will be transferred, which require conversion, and which will be skipped - before you hit the sync button.No surprises or missing songs.
• Automatic format conversion
FLAC, OGG and other unsupported formats are automatically converted to AAC or MP3 with your quality settings.Every track from your library ends up on your device.
• Full control over metadata and playlists
Edit titles, artists, albums, covers and other tags - one track at a time or in bulk.Create and manage playlists without Finder limitations.
• Connecting streaming playlists
Link your Apple Music or Spotify accounts, bring your playlists to PodCenter, match them with your local library, and sync the result to your device.
• Works with any drives
PodCenter works not only with iPod, but also with any device mounted on macOS: iPhone, iPad, USB drives, SD cards, portable players (DAP).You decide which formats your device supports (including FLAC) and set bitrate limits or enable Passthrough mode to copy files unchanged.
Additional features:
• Transfer from Device to Library: Retrieve music from your iPod or other devices back to your Mac.
• Smart Duplicate Detection: Prevents the same tracks from being downloaded twice.
• Individual settings for each device: Optimize bitrate and settings separately for iPod Classic, Nano and other models.
• Native SwiftUI interface: The application is written entirely in SwiftUI, without web wrappers, and fits perfectly into the macOS ecosystem.
