Listening Post
Your Mac as the scrobbling hub for *all* your Apple devices
Listening Post is a macOS app that turns your Mac into the scrobbling hub for all your Apple devices. It can pick up music two ways: 1. Your Mac's mic identifies what's playing around you via Apple's ShazamKit 2. Anything you shazam on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch syncs in over iCloud; no extra iOS apps necessary. LP posts your listens to the channels you've set up: scrobblers like Last.fm or ListenBrainz; local CSV/JSONL exports or Apple Shortcuts; social posts to BlueSky or Mastodon.
I'm a senior macOS/iOS indie software dev from Germany. I spent the last few months building a macOS-native scrobbler that also supports iOS and watchOS (those two without extra apps).
It's called Listening Post, and it turns the Mac into the scrobbling hub for all the Apple devices you own. It recognizes nearby music (a YouTube video, vinyl at home, the radio in the coffee shop!), collects whatever you shazam on iOS and Apple Watch via iCloud (no extra apps needed!), and posts your listens to Last.fm, ListenBrainz, Rocksky, Maloja, and more. Tracks can be liked on Spotify, Apple Music, or Deezer. Your listening history stays on the Mac, in local files you control. #DataSovereignty
Basically, I built my personal dream scrobbler! Everything goes into one pool and fans out to all the targets you configure at once — Last.fm, ListenBrainz, Rocksky, Maloja, a local CSV/JSON file, a Shortcuts automation, even a Bluesky/Mastodon post. 😉 Your listening, your call. I built it for multi-scrobbling folks like myself.
It's out now for macOS 15.6+, sold straight from my own store — no Mac App Store, no subscription. There's a 14-day free trial; after that it's €15 for a year of updates (introductory price), and you keep the last version you received forever, even if you never pay again. Use launch day coupon `PH10OFF` for 10% off!

PS: Before anyone asks, and since that question always comes up: no, this isn't vibe-coded, even though clankers were used to help development. It's a proper app, made with deliberation, thought, and lots of care, founded on my 30+ years of professional software development. It's a bit old school in that regard, I guess. 😉
