Enhanced metadata requires the Microsoft Store version of Amazon Music. The website/desktop installer version may reject the metadata launch flag and show a --remote-debugging-port error.

See what shows up on Discord

Amazon Music RPC updates your Discord profile with the track, artist, album artwork, and playback timing from the Amazon Music desktop app.

Built for daily use

Run it in the tray, let it update Discord automatically, and tune privacy or scrobbling from Settings when needed.

Why use it?

Amazon Music does not get Spotify-style Discord status by itself

This fills that gap for Windows users. It reads what the Amazon Music desktop app is playing and sends a polished Rich Presence payload to Discord.

What it shows

Everything people expect from a music presence

Now playing

Show the current title, artist, album, album art, and progress timer on your Discord profile.

Pause state

Keep your presence visible while paused with a frozen progress bar and clear paused state.

Amazon links

Add a listen button that points to Amazon Music by default, with Deezer available as an option.

Scrobbling

Connect Last.fm or ListenBrainz to scrobble tracks while Amazon Music plays.

Privacy controls

Use private session or keyword filters to hide tracks you do not want to share.

Diagnostics

Check RPC, Discord, metadata, logs, and self-tests from a dedicated diagnostics window.

How it works

Local metadata first, Windows fallback when needed

Enhanced metadata reads the local Amazon Music desktop app for richer title, artist, album, artwork, playback state, and timing data. If enhanced metadata is unavailable, the app falls back to Windows media metadata and optional Amazon Music notification enrichment.

Enhanced metadata compatibility

Enhanced metadata is currently built and tested for the Microsoft Store version of Amazon Music. The website/desktop installer version may reject the metadata launch flag and show a --remote-debugging-port error. If that happens, install Amazon Music from the Microsoft Store or use fallback mode.

Is it safe?

The privacy-sensitive parts are visible and optional

Enhanced metadata is optional

New installs ask before enabling enhanced Amazon Music metadata. Fallback-only mode is available in Settings.

Local-first design

Amazon Music metadata and notification fallback are read locally. Discord only receives the Rich Presence data needed to show your status.

Token handling

Last.fm and ListenBrainz tokens stay local, diagnostics redact known token values, and Settings includes a clear-token action.

Release verification

Release notes include SHA256 hashes, and the updater verifies installers when a hash is present.

Troubleshooting

If Discord does not update, start here

Check the basics

Make sure Discord desktop, Amazon Music, and Amazon Music RPC are running. Open Diagnostics from the tray for live status.

Metadata fallback

If enhanced metadata is off or unavailable, Windows media metadata still works. Notification fallback can improve the fallback path.

Metadata launch error

If Amazon Music says --remote-debugging-port is unavailable, you are probably using the website/desktop installer version. Install the Microsoft Store version for enhanced metadata, or keep enhanced metadata off.

Notification setup

Amazon Music notifications must be enabled, and Amazon Music usually needs to be minimized for notification fallback to help.

Scrobbling

Reconnect Last.fm or validate a fresh ListenBrainz token if scrobbling stops. Private session can pause scrobbling.

Give Amazon Music a proper Discord status

Open source, Windows installer, privacy controls, scrobbling, and the metadata people expect from a music presence.
