Welcome to Muzlo
Your audio library syncs to your phone and watch, so you can keep listening without staying online. On the web, keyboard shortcuts put playback under your fingers. And when a track runs longer than ten minutes, Muzlo remembers where you stopped so you can pick up later.
Welcome — and thanks for stopping by.
This first post is a short tour of what Muzlo is for and how the core experience works today. We’ll start with why the product exists, then walk through offline sync on phone and watch, how longer tracks pick up where you left off, and finish with keyboard shortcut tips for the web player. Muzlo started from a practical problem: a pile of lectures, study recordings, and audiobooks that are not waiting for you on a streaming catalog. They are your files — captured in class, saved from a course, or bought as a download — and you still want them close when the network is gone. The other half of the problem is context. You might begin a chapter on the phone, continue later on a watch during a walk, then finish on the web at home. Starting from zero every time breaks the flow. The same goes for long lectures you pause overnight and pick up the next day. So the product is built around two promises. Your audio stays on the device for offline listening. And for longer listens, Muzlo keeps your place so you can move between devices and moments without losing where you were.
Sync once, listen offline
Your library lives in the cloud as a private collection — music, podcasts, lectures, and other audio you choose to keep. On Android and Wear OS, Muzlo syncs those files to the device. After that, playback does not depend on a constant connection. Start a run, hop on a train, or open a lecture at home with spotty Wi‑Fi: the files are already there. The web app is where you organize the library. The phone and watch are where listening goes offline.
Resume long tracks
For tracks longer than 10 minutes, Muzlo remembers where you stopped. Open the same file again later and you can continue from that position instead of starting over — useful for podcasts, lectures, and long mixes. Shorter tracks stay out of the way: no resume prompt when a quick song does not need one. Your place in the track stays with the library across sessions, so picking up later feels natural whether you left mid-chapter yesterday or paused during a commute.
Tips: Keyboard shortcuts on the web
When a track is open in the web player, you can control it without reaching for the mouse:
- Space or K — play / pause
- ← / → — seek −5 s / +5 s
- J / L — seek −10 s / +10 s
- P / N — previous / next track
- Shift + ← / Shift + → — previous / next track
- ↑ / ↓ — volume up / down
- M — mute
- S — shuffle
- R — repeat
- Q — open or close the queue
Shortcuts pause while you type in a search field or form, so they do not get in the way of editing metadata or signing in.
