aud-io in one paragraph.

aud-io is a local-first music player for the music you own, built natively for iPhone, iPad and Mac. It is designed for listeners who maintain their own libraries and want fast importing, private on-device organisation and a focused listening experience. But for those who don’t want to leave streaming access to their Apple Music library behind, aud-io also optionally supports Apple Music streaming using your existing account. aud-io is truly the best of both worlds.
