Enable data saving

Data saving disables playing lossless and high-resolution audio, as well as music videos. Instead, you will get 256 kbps AAC-encoded audio, which is highly efficient. If you use Bluetooth headphones, the difference should be unnoticeable.

Disable audio amplification

By default, Mist makes your music louder, so it doesn't otherwise seem too quiet. If you have issues with clipping, or this feature does not otherwise play nicely with your device, you might want to turn on this option.

Normalize loudness

Normalizing adjusts the volume each song is played at to be the same level for every song. This will avoid you having to change your device's volume between each track, and should typically not be turned off. Powered by ReplayGain.

Mist Stella

Enjoy your music is a unique way thanks to the Mist Stella spatial audio technology. Stella makes your music feel like it's coming from all around you, giving you a concert-like experience. Note that Stella uses slightly more bandwidth than lossless streaming. See compatible songs.

Display notification when song changes

If this is enabled, a desktop notification will be shown when the song being played changes, containing information about the new song. This requires having notifications enabled in your system settings.

Show the song you are listening to on Discord

Using Discord Rich Presence, Mist can display on Discord the song you are currently listening to. You need to have the Discord desktop app installed and running on your computer for this to work.

Privacy

Who can see your Mist profile?

Your Mist profile always shows some information about you that is publicly available on your Equestria.dev account. If you would like people not to know you are using Mist, you can change it here.

Who can see your library?

Your library can show up on your profile if you wish for it to show up. It will show all the albums and songs you have manually added to your library and not the songs you have only searched for.

Who can see your history and activity?

If this is enabled, other people can see when you last used Mist and which songs you last listened to. Turning this on might reveal personal information, so be careful if you set this to "Everyone".

Who can see your favorites?

Other people can see your favorites on your profile to know what songs you like. If you don't turn on the option below, other Mist users will not be able to directly listen to them in the Mist app.

Who can listen to your favorites?

If this is enabled, other Mist users will see your favorites directly in the application, giving them the option to listen to them if they want to. This means you won't have to share anything manually.

Who can see your profile customizations?

If you customize your Mist profile through the options provided inside the app, you can choose who will see these customizations. This includes your banner, color, description, and all other settings.
