Your music, your library, everywhere you go.
Ampache turns your personal music and video collection into a streaming library you can access from anywhere. Browse your albums, create playlists, and listen on your phone, tablet, laptop, or TV — no syncing or copying files needed.
What makes Ampache worth launching.
Listen to your music and watch your videos from your phone, tablet, laptop, or smart TV — anywhere you have an internet connection.
Browse your collection by artist, album, genre, or year. Use the powerful search to find exactly what you're in the mood for.
Build hand-picked playlists or create smart playlists that automatically update based on your favorite genres, artists, or ratings.
Listen through your web browser, or connect to apps like VLC, Foobar2000, and Subsonic-compatible players for more ways to play.
Subscribe to your favorite podcasts and create your own streaming channels for a custom radio experience.
Download songs, albums, or entire playlists as zip files to take your music with you when you're off the grid.
If you fit one of these, Ampache is probably built for you.
Practical scenarios where Ampache makes a real difference.
Stop juggling files across devices — upload your music once and stream it to your phone, tablet, or laptop anytime, anywhere.
Set up a single music library for the whole household so everyone can listen to their favorite albums without duplicating files.
Create custom playlists for workouts, road trips, or dinner parties, and let smart playlists refresh themselves based on what you love.
