Control iTunes From Windows System Tray Easily

by Binoy xavier on May 28, 2010

If you are an iDevice owner you will have definitely  used Apple’s own media playing software the iTunes. The iTunes being so popular is the default media player for many even on windows PCs. With the shining white default Apple UI and neat display of media details it often consume our screen space. What if one doesn’t want to lose the feel of using iTunes ( with controls)  yet want to save screen space and improve productivity? Yes, we do have  Mini Player mode  but that doesn’t allow full control. Wait, we have an alternate app for you.

iTuner, is a cool app that can reside on your windows system tray and can add powerful features like  global keyboard control, track and playback control, library maintenance, playlist exporting etc. You can also shuffle and toggle songs easily. This smart app can even remove dead and duplicate files from your library for you. Apart from all these cool features there is a lot more features in iTuner. The future possibilities listed are much more interesting. If you are an iTunes user this is a must try for you.

  3. Scheduled iPod/iPhone synchronization
