Minify 🎵🎶

Deprecation Notice

Hi! Thanks for checking Minify out, unfortunately, due to OS-related Windowing Issues, I have moved development to a successor, Bittify.

Check it out here!

Online services for Minify have currently been ceased, and the code here is meant for archival purposes.

I hope you understand, and thank you for your continued support!

About 🐳

Minify is a Miniplayer built for Windows which shows the current song you have playing on Spotify.

Useful for people who want to see what songs are currently playing without constantly tabbing back to the main application. It also be used as a Window Source on OBS for Twitch streamers to easily show what they are listening to.
