FAQ

Common questions.

How does PlayOver detect music links on Mac?
PlayOver monitors your clipboard in the background. When you copy a link from a supported streaming service using ⌘+C, PlayOver recognises it and shows a popup with the song details and platform options. It does not read or store any other clipboard content.
The popup isn't appearing when I copy a link. What should I do?
First, check that PlayOver is running — you should see its icon in the menu bar. If it's not there, open PlayOver from your Applications folder. If the icon is there but the popup isn't appearing, try copying a music link again — PlayOver reads the clipboard when you press ⌘+C. If it still doesn't work, try quitting and relaunching PlayOver from the menu bar icon.
What permissions does PlayOver need?
PlayOver reads your clipboard only to detect music links when you copy them — macOS doesn't require a special permission for this, so there's nothing to enable. PlayOver does not require microphone, camera, location, or any other sensitive permissions.
Which streaming services are supported?
PlayOver supports Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, and Deezer — both as sources and destinations — plus Pandora, Boomplay, and Anghami as destinations.
How do I stop PlayOver from launching at login?
Click the PlayOver icon in the menu bar and toggle off "Launch at Login". You can also manage login items in System Settings → General → Login Items.
What macOS version is required?
PlayOver for Mac requires macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later.
What data does PlayOver collect?
PlayOver doesn't require an account and never collects your name, email, or personal identity. It does send anonymous analytics (via PostHog) to help improve the app — including which streaming platforms were involved and general device and locale info, but not the actual links you convert — associated only with a random device ID, never with you personally. We don't sell your data. See our Support Tip Jar Privacy Policy for full details.
