Private by nature

No ads. No third-party tracking.

Bring your music.
Then listen to it anywhere, privately.

That folder of albums deserves more than a forgotten corner of your laptop.

  1. 01

    Drop off your music

    Upload tracks or a whole zip of albums.

  2. 02

    Let us do the tidying

    Automatic tagging, cover art, and neatly organized files.

  3. 03

    Press play

    Stream your collection in your browser or a compatible phone app.

What can you bring?

If you have files

CDs you’ve copied to your computer, songs bought on iTunes or Amazon, Bandcamp downloads, that old folder of MP3s, and audiobooks from stores without copy protection, like Libro.fm.

If you only stream

Downloads from Spotify or Apple Music only play inside their own apps, so they can’t come with you. To start a library you own, stores like Bandcamp, Qobuz, iTunes and Amazon sell albums as files that are yours to keep.

Choose a service. Add your own files.

Pick a service and Terrarium sets up your own private copy of it. Add your files or start saving recipes, writing notes, or planning your budget.

Your companions nap while you’re away and wake when you visit, which takes a few seconds.

A few things you might be wondering.

Do I need to know anything about servers?

No. Pick the services you want, and Terrarium sets them up and keeps them running. A few ask you to choose a username and password for them during setup, and Terrarium walks you through it.

Is music or audiobook content included?

No. You bring your own music and audiobook files. Terrarium gives them a home and the tools to organize and enjoy them. It doesn’t come with a streaming subscription or any music or books of its own.

Can I bring my Audible books?

Not as they are. Audible’s downloads are copy-protected, and Terrarium can’t play them. Audiobooks without copy protection, like the ones Libro.fm sells, upload and play as they are.

What do I actually get?

Your own private versions of services like Spotify and Audible, for files you already own, plus notes, recipes, and a budget. You open them in your browser, and some also work with apps on your phone.

Why do the animals fall asleep?

Each animal looks after one of your services and shows what it’s doing. A service naps when nobody’s using it and wakes on its own when you open it, which can take a few seconds.

Your terrarium is waiting.
