This is really cool. It’s amazing how “realistic” the clickwheel feels—it instantly transported me back to actually using an iPod. Also, there’s something poetic about emulating the clickwheel on the interface that replaced it :)

I don’t see why not. There’s an official web version at music.apple.com. They probably prevent multiple simultaneous streams on the same account at the same time though.
I found out it actually allows me to play on the same account on two separate devices. The official apple music apps reliably stop my attempts to abuse my one person membership. Maybe this means that authorised applications aren't checked as thoroughly for this.

Is the click wheel "feel" experience only on iOS? I don't get any haptic feedback on Android
How do you even get the _feel_ of the device so right? I'm perplexed, such a great project. I started using it unironically to play music, I'd totally pay for a Mac/iOS app haha.
Simpler than one might think - once you do the math to project each touch/mouse event down to an angle, you just need to quantize the angle to a certain number of discrete options (which you can measure on an actual device), look at the event stream of such angle events pairwise, and take the sign of the pairwise difference as right/left or up/down! The much harder part when designing the iPods themselves was to buil…

This is harder than I thought

I don't feel the click haptic feedback on iOS with iPhone 12
