There are many iTunes managers around, but Bowtie has many features that set it apart from other utilities, being very easy to use for one. Created by 13Bold, it sports standard buttons for playback and also a host of customizable keyboard shortcuts, aside from many other features.
Bowtie also makes it easy to perform other tasks like upping or lowering a track’s rating, changing the volume, and you can also have the app stay visible or function like your normal Mac window.
One of the nice things about Bowtie though, is that it is skinnable, giving you control over the appearance of the controls. The themes are extremely varied, with some displaying album art and others more simple. Some of the fancier skins even come with animations and give you some control over the track you are playing.
There are a lot of themes available with more being made, and every single one can be downloaded from within the program. Once you have downloaded a theme, it takes just one click to apply it. The built-in keyboard shortcuts make Bowtie a great tool to use in managing iTunes, and while it may not be as fancy as other applications out there, it does the job right. Installing the app is a breeze, and it won’t take long before you get accustomed to it.
Bowtie doesn’t just offer complete functionality in terms of managing iTunes, but the many themes built in make it a nice program to have around. If you are having trouble managing your stuff on iTunes, Bowtie can help you out.
