THE HOLM GUIDE / EVERYDAY USE

Music & sound

The track, the volume and the next song, together.

Playback

Spotify, YouTube in Chrome or Edge, VLC and other Windows media sessions can appear in Holm. The open player has artwork, track information, seeking, playback controls, shuffle, repeat and volume. Available controls depend on what the player exposes to Windows. Click the artwork to bring that player forward.

Album colours and equalizer

The notch uses a blurred copy of the album artwork and crossfades when the track changes. While its bars are visible, the equalizer reads output loudness, not your microphone. Nothing is recorded or kept. Settings → General → Equalizer follows the music switches to the fixed animation.

Output and per-app volume

When multiple output devices are available, use the button beside volume to choose one for music, games and calls. The mixer gives each app playing audio its own slider and mute control.

Sleep timer and calls

The moon in the open player stops music after 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Holm can pause music during calls and resume it afterwards. Turning off Media controls under Settings → Open notch also disables call-driven pausing and the sleep timer.
