Features
Music MiniPlayer is not a music player itself, but instead interfaces with Apple Music, the music app that is built into macOS.[1] The software is designed to recreate the Aqua user interface seen on iTunes 10.[2] It also includes support for playlists, which the original miniplayer in iTunes 10 did not.[3] The application includes the regular music player controls as well as a snap back button to return to Apple Music and support for Apple Music 1 radio shows.[4] Music MiniPlayer supports shuffle and repeat play modes.[5] It can also float over other windows.[1]
Music MiniPlayer was written in Swift using the AppKit, Core Graphics, and Core Animations frameworks.[1] It requires macOS Monterey or above and supports Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.[5]

Reception
Music MiniPlayer was one of the MacLife Editor's Choices in the October 2022 issue, stating "great fun and a lovely piece of nostalgia that's also genuinely useful."[6] The application was praised for its nostalgia factor and features,[3][4] but it was noted that Apple Music comes with its own built in miniplayer[1] and that other software exists.[2]
