Hey @deadadoodee,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome.

This seems to be one of the changes we recently made. At Spotify, we're always testing new improvements and features to give our users a better experience. So you may see something your friend can't see, or you may have access to a completely new feature for a while.

Your feedback is very important to us, because it helps us make future decisions. We know you want to make the best out of your listening experience.

If the Now Playing View looks like this:

The lyrics button should be right on the left bar (see red underlining). If you notice this looks different, please send us a video recording or screen shot of what you're seeing on your side. You can attach it to your next reply.

We'll be on the lookout. Once again, thanks for the feedback.

Nope, here is a video https://app.screencast.com/AfCJMxSZ19Ld0 This is driving me bonkers as a new user. I use YouTube Music and Apple Music, and Lyrics are a big click in both.

Hey @herojig,

Thanks for joining the thread!

We were unable to open the video from our end, so could you try to attach it via the Insert Video option in the post editor? That'd be great, but if the attachment is too big - we'd suggest that you upload it to Google Drive and share the link with us (make sure the video has the permissions for anyone to see it).

Also, let us know which app version you're currently using and what your device and its OS-version is.

Thanks and hope to hear from you soon 🙂
