Hi there!

I hope it's ok for me to post here (if not admin, please remove). For day to day, I sometime find the Wiim App a bit overwhelming and when I'm doing long listening session, I like to have something smaller/simpler to control my music. So I built a small mac menu bar app to be able to control my wiim devices. It's not perfect, doesn't have all the bell and whistle but works for me. So I thought it could work for other. You can find the app here if you're interested:

Cheers!

I get a You can't open the application "WiiMMenuBar" because this application is not supported on this Mac. when I right click to open it.

Intel iMac, running MacOS 15.7.3.
 
For me it works at looks great! Awesome work.
I have one suggestion. I have WiiM Amp Ultra and WiiM Sound Lite and there is no possibility to change volume on both devices same time. It is a little bit annoying.
Once again Great work
Best regards and thx for sharing

Glad you like it! I tried to work on grouping devices capability but run into some problem with the Wiim API so I put it on the backburner for now. But I will try to get back to it! I have 2 devices (Amp and ultra amp) so I can test.

Oh interesting. Thanks for letting me know! I have a Sillicon Mac so haven't tried on Intel or previous version of the OS. Will take a look and let you know!

Ok it should work now. I was not building it as a Universal Binary. Duh :) Thanks again for letting me know!

 
Thanks! Great app.

For me, it works mostly great. I say mostly because on my machine there is no white bar to indicate volume. Interestingly, on some songs the image on my WiiM Ultra is different than the image on WiiMControl.
 
The album art URI to use is available in the metaData set from the WiiM API call:

https://<WIIM_IP>/httpapi.asp?command=getMetaInfo

in albumArtURI field.
