Want streaming music in genuinely high quality on your PC? TIDAL Desktop streams lossless audio on Windows and brings playlists, favorites, artist discovery and playback controls into one app. It also supports high-quality playback and offline listening.
Playlists and saved music
TIDAL Desktop lets listeners make playlists and keep favorite tracks close at hand. These saved selections provide a direct route to music already chosen, while the broader catalog offers songs and playlists for different listening moods.
- Create playlists from tracks in the TIDAL catalog.
- Save favorite songs for easier access.
- Stream music through the desktop app.
Where can you discover artists and shows?
An artist-browsing area in the side panel gives listeners a way to explore performers and find unfamiliar music. It adds an artist-focused route into the catalog alongside searching for specific songs or choosing playlists.
TIDAL Desktop also includes concert and music-show videos. These bring live performances and other musical programming into the same app used for listening to songs.
Playback quality and offline listening
With TIDAL's Max quality, the Windows app streams HiRes FLAC at up to 24-bit/192 kHz, lossless audio for good headphones or a DAC. Quality can be lowered to save bandwidth.
Offline listening is supported for times without a reliable connection.
