// MISSION_BRIEF
>> BitaBit is not another streaming platform and does not try to turn your collection into a feed. It opens your files, keeps them on device and shows what happens to the signal.
The point is not a vague hi-fi promise. The point is evidence: codec, sample rate, bit depth, output route and verdict stay visible while the player keeps the in-app chain short and readable.
That matters on iOS, where no player should pretend it owns the whole system path. BitaBit reports the route honestly, supports serious files and lets the music breathe.
// YOUR_FILES. YOUR_SIGNAL. NO_ACCOUNTS. NO_CLOUD_UPLOAD.
25_REAL_EXTENSIONS
FLAC, ALAC/M4A, MP3, WAV/AIFF, DSD, Opus, Ogg Vorbis, APE, TTA, WavPack and VGM/VGZ are handled as real files.
LIVE_FFT_VISUALS
Bars, waveform, spectrum, circular, particles, layered, dots and mirror views react to the signal in real time.
PERSISTENT_QUEUE
Document-picker files, playlists and queue state survive the session so the library stays yours and stays local.
VGM_SYNTHESIS
VGM/VGZ files are generated live through libvgm and 40+ retro chips instead of being flattened into prerendered audio.
PRIVATE_BY_DESIGN
No required account, no ads, no third-party analytics and no upload path between your music files and the player.

Technical + plain reading
Source and route details stay inspectable, then BitaBit translates the result into a plain verdict when you only want the answer.

DECODER explicit codec path / no cloud handoff
ENGINE AVAudioFile / SourceNode -> MainMixerNode

MUSIC YOU CAN SEE
The waveform is not wallpaper. Real-time FFT analysis and offline RMS data make the file readable while you listen and scrub.

START_THE_PLAYER
Local files, rare formats, visible engineering and an interface that reacts to the music instead of asking for your account.
