Fidelia
Fidelia is a Mac audiophile music player for playing local and networked music libraries with lossless playback, DSP tools, and advanced output options.
What is Fidelia?
Fidelia is a native Mac music player built for listeners who want high-quality playback from local libraries, compatible servers, and external audio hardware. It is designed for audiophile and hi-fi workflows, giving users more control over playback quality, output routing, and sound processing than a basic consumer music player. Fidelia supports lossless and high-resolution formats including FLAC, AIFF, WAV, Apple Lossless, and additional import paths for formats such as DSD and APE. It also offers gapless playback, format conversion, Music.app library sync, and support for Audio Unit effects for users who want to shape or refine playback. For more advanced setups, Fidelia can work with USB DACs, multichannel outputs, and supported network streamers, making it useful both at a desk and as part of a dedicated home listening system.

Safety overview
Status: Safe
Fidelia is legitimate audio playback software for macOS. Access to your music library, removable storage, or networked audio devices is normal for its purpose, and removing it mainly affects playback features, settings, and any related library integration you use with the app. If you use Audio Unit effects or network playback, review those add-ons and connected devices the same way you would with any audio software.
Recommendation: Keep Fidelia if you use it for high-quality music playback, external DAC output, or library management on your Mac. If you no longer use it, removing the app is generally fine, though you may also want to remove its support files to clear saved settings and cached data.
