What is Lyrimuse?

Lyrimuse is a free, open-source (GPL-3.0) macOS menu-bar app that shows real-time, word-by-word synced lyrics for whatever is playing — Apple Music, Spotify, QQ Music, NetEase Cloud Music, Kugou, or YouTube Music / Spotify Web in a browser, synced to the page's own progress bar.

Lyrics are resolved from eight sources, and every candidate is scored on one scale so the best match wins: each track's resolution decision can be inspected, wrong matches can self-heal, and a manually picked lyric is locked and never overridden.

Display styles include a classic floating desktop overlay, a Dynamic-Island-style capsule, menu-bar lyrics, and a full Apple-Music-style lyrics window. It also offers on-device translation into 18 languages, per-line romanization (pinyin, Cantonese Jyutping, Japanese furigana), Simplified/Traditional Chinese conversion, and Last.fm / ListenBrainz scrobbling with a local listening history, charts, and a listening heatmap.

Requires macOS 14 or later; ships for both Apple Silicon and Intel. No account required, no telemetry. UI in English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.
