NicePlayer
NicePlayer is a lightweight media player and music organizer for macOS that allows playback and basic editing of audio and video files. The app supports file organization through a library interface and includes tagging features for media management. It targets casual users who want a simple alternative to more complex media management software. The interface has been noted by users as functional but complex, requiring some learning to access all features.

1 suggestionNicePlayer appears to be a legacy project with no clear evidence of recent development or native Apple Silicon support. The search results reference the software in archival and download-aggregator contexts, with no mention of a native build or updates beyond 2025. Since you are running this Intel-only app under Rosetta 2 today, it will stop launching entirely when Apple removes Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028) — giving you roughly 2 years to plan a transition. If NicePlayer remains important to your workflow, we recommend contacting the developer to ask directly whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned. In the meantime, consider evaluating actively maintained media players that run natively on M-series Macs, such as VLC (free and open-source, plays virtually any format), Infuse (polished interface, streaming support), or IINA (lightweight, open-source successor to the classic mpv player). All three are actively developed and confirmed to run natively on Apple Silicon.
