SPlayer-Next
SPlayer-Next is a cross-platform desktop music player for playing local and streamed audio with advanced lyric display and library features.
What is SPlayer-Next?
SPlayer-Next is a desktop music player built for listening to local music collections and audio from supported streaming sources. It is designed for users who want a richer music experience than a basic player, especially if they care about synced lyrics, library browsing, and customization. The app supports common audio playback workflows, can connect to self-hosted media servers such as Jellyfin, Navidrome, and Emby, and includes features for lyric matching and display during playback. It also offers music metadata editing, plugin support, and options that fit personal desktop listening setups. On macOS, users will typically use it as a dedicated music app for managing and enjoying their own collection alongside compatible online or server-based sources.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
SPlayer-Next is a legitimate music player, and normal use may involve access to your music folders, network connections for streaming or server features, and optional lyric or plugin-related downloads. Those behaviors are consistent with its purpose. Use extra care when adding plugins or connecting online services, since those features can broaden what the app can access or exchange. If you only use local playback, you can limit it to the folders and services you actually need.
Recommendation: Keep SPlayer-Next if you use it for local playback, lyrics, or compatible media-server streaming. If you no longer use the app, you can remove it like other third-party Mac apps; doing so may also leave behind settings, caches, or downloaded data that can be cleaned up separately if needed.
