Flacbox is a hi-res music player for Mac, iPhone, and iPad from Everappz (EVERAPPZ SL) that plays FLAC, DSD, ALAC, WAV, and 120+ formats natively while streaming libraries from cloud storage, NAS shares, and self-hosted media servers.

How Mac users listen

On Apple Silicon Macs, you add sources—local folders, iCloud Drive, Dropbox, SMB/WebDAV/DLNA, or in 7.4 Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Subsonic, Navidrome, Internxt, Proton Drive, QNAP, Nextcloud, Amazon S3, FTP, SFTP, and NFS. Flacbox indexes metadata, builds playlists, and plays gapless with a 10-band equalizer, lyrics, AirPlay, and Chromecast. Offline caching lets you download albums for flights or commutes without re-encoding lossless files. A built-in tag editor and M3U/CUE playlist support suit large personal libraries moved off Apple Music.

Free vs Premium

Flacbox is free to download with optional Premium ($2.99/month, $19.99/year, or $69.99 lifetime per the US App Store). Premium removes usage limits such as connection caps and ads. Purchases sync between iOS and Mac via iCloud when signed into the same Apple ID. The app does not include music or servers—you connect your own storage and accounts.

Version 7.4

Build 7.4 is a major Everappz release: CarPlay rebuilt with fast sorting, color themes, queue view, and letter index; 10+ new connection types including Plex, Jellyfin, Navidrome, SFTP, and Proton Drive; Liquid Glass UI refresh on macOS 26; stronger network libraries; redesigned Home Screen widgets; and playback fixes on some self-hosted servers. Requires macOS 12.0 or later and a Mac with Apple M1 or later.

Flacbox 7.4 for Mac — Hi-Res Music Player

Pros & Cons Show details

✅ PROS

  • Flacbox plays FLAC, DSD, ALAC, and other lossless formats natively on Mac—something Apple Music and many players still avoid without conversion.
  • Version 7.4 adds Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Subsonic, Navidrome, SFTP, and privacy clouds so one app can reach NAS, home-lab, and encrypted storage libraries.
  • Streaming plus offline download keeps hi-res collections off the internal SSD while still allowing airplane-mode playback after caching.
  • The rebuilt CarPlay experience (also relevant when using iPhone as a Mac companion) improves large-library navigation with letter index and faster sorting.
  • A free base update for 7.4’s new connectors and Liquid Glass UI lowers the barrier before deciding on Premium.

❌ CONS

  • The Mac App Store build requires Apple M1 or later—Intel Mac users cannot install the current universal Mac app listing.
  • Flacbox provides no music or servers; you must configure Plex, NAS, cloud accounts, or SFTP endpoints yourself.
  • Advanced unlimited connections and ad removal sit behind Premium IAP ($2.99/month to $69.99 lifetime).
  • App Store privacy labels list tracking and linked data (identifiers, usage data), which may concern listeners expecting a fully private audiophile tool.
  • App Store What’s New has moved to 7.5; users on the latest store build see stability fixes rather than the 7.4 feature changelog unless they match that version.
