Juqed — The playlist belongs to everyone.
End the endless fight over the aux cable or bluetooth connections.
Juqed turns your Mac into a smart party jukebox: you launch the app, your guests scan a QR code — and from that moment on, they take over as the DJ.
Anyone with a smartphone becomes part of the playlist. Your guests search for their own songs, add them to the queue and upvote their favorites.
The most-loved tracks play first — democratic, fair, and entirely without you.
YOUR MUSIC, YOUR RULES.
Juqed uses what you already have:
• Local music library (like MP3, M4A, AAC) — just pick a folder or external drive
• Apple Music — with an active subscription, the entire catalog is playable
• Combine both — the best of your library and streaming
GUESTS, ZERO FRICTION.
No app download. No account. No streaming subscription required. Guests just open the browser on their phone:
• Scan the QR code ? they're in
• Search for songs, add them to the queue
• Upvote favorites — popular tracks rise to the top automatically
• See live what's coming up next
AUTO-DJ FOR QUIET MOMENTS.
When guests take a break, the smart Auto-DJ takes over. It learns throughout the night which songs fit the mood and fills the gaps automatically — from your local library, from Apple Music, or both.
FAIR USE & CONTROL.
You stay in charge of the sound system:
• Blacklist — block artists, genres, or keywords
• Cooldown — no song repeats too soon
• Song limit per guest — prevents anyone from dominating
• Vote limit per hour — keeps voting fair
• No self-vote — guests can't upvote their own songs
RUNS COMPLETELY LOCALLY.
Juqed is not a cloud service. The server runs on your Mac, on your own Wi-Fi. No data leaves your network. No subscription. No cloud lock-in. No stress.
SET UP IN UNDER A FEW MOMENTS.
- Open Juqed
- Pick a music folder or connect Apple Music
- Show and share the QR code — the party starts
