Listening Post › Overview

Listening Post (website) is a macOS 15.6+ 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 apps necessary.

Both land in the same history, which LP forwards to the channels you've set up: scrobblers like Last.fm, local CSV/JSONL exports, social posts, Shortcuts automations.

Listening Post's History window with the menu bar track menu open
