3.2.0

  • iOS 16.2 support for word-by-word lyrics

3.1.0

  • New (Experimental): YouTube Music support. Off by default: turn on Enable YouTube Music Support in Settings → DateLyrics → Experimental, then respring.
  • Lyrics come from YouTube Music itself and are fetched automatically for most songs; if a song shows none, open its Lyrics tab once.
  • Unofficial and relies on the app's internals, so it may break at any time (tested on YouTube Music v9.41). No word highlighting or sweep, lyrics may drift on split lines, and Musixmatch Fallback is not supported.
  • Experimental footers in settings are only shown while their switch is on.

3.0.7

  • Fixed Music crashing on iOS 16 when lyric timings or the playback position were invalid (NaN), e.g. while the queue reloads.

3.0.6

  • Fixed a paused lyric reappearing on the Lock Screen after its pause timeout, for example when another app takes over playback.
  • Smooth Word Sweep: the setting now notes its extra battery and GPU cost.

3.0.5

  • New (Experimental): Smooth Word Sweep lights each syllable gradually over its sung duration, like Apple Music. Holds whole syllables while the screen is off (Always-On).
  • New: Italic Lyrics option under Typography.

3.0.2

  • Roothide support.
  • New: full-screen artwork mode, instrumental dots and idle ticker.
