Mia Audio

A player for the files you own.

Mia Audio plays the music and audiobooks already on your phone. No subscription, no account, no advertising, and nothing is uploaded anywhere. It works on a plane, on the Underground, and anywhere else with no signal — because it never needed one.

What it does

Made for audiobooks, not just adapted for them

Books and music behave differently, so Mia treats them differently.

Books remember where you stopped

Down to the second, and picked up when you come back — even if the app was closed in between. Your place is saved constantly, so nothing is lost if the battery goes mid-chapter. Books are kept in their own list with progress and time remaining.

Playback speed that sounds right

From 0.75× to 3×, pitch corrected, so nothing changes key. A different time-stretching method is used for speech and for music, so neither ends up sounding like the other.

Jump back when you missed something

Skip buttons either side of play, set to whatever interval suits you between 5 and 90 seconds. Lose concentration for a moment and one tap puts it back.

Playlists

Group tracks however you like — by dance, by mood, by occasion. Drag to reorder. Play everything in your library, or just the list you are working through.

Controls where you need them

Lock screen, notification shade, headphones and car. Playback carries on with the screen off and the app closed, as it should.

Your files, your way

Plays MP3, M4A, M4B, AAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, ALAC, OGG and Opus. Reads cover art from your files. Hide anything you would rather not see, without deleting it.

Getting audio in

The app starts empty, on purpose

Mia Audio contains no music and no audiobooks. It plays what you put on your phone.

On iPhone, from a Mac

Connect the phone, open it in Finder, choose the Files tab, and drag audio onto Mia Audio. Much the quickest way to move a lot at once.

On iPhone, from the Files app

Mia's folder lives under On My iPhone and is browsable and writable — including from Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Google Drive or OneDrive.

On Android

Copy audio to the device's Music folder by any means. Mia reads what the system has already indexed, so anything on the phone simply shows up.

What Mia Audio does not do. It does not stream, it does not need an account, it shows no advertising, and it collects no data whatsoever. It makes no network requests of any kind. It plays your files.
