[Your Library] Keep lyrics up at all times

I like having the lyrics accessible, and having to swipe up and click lyrics is a pain. Instead of the album cover, it would be awesome to have the option to have the lyrics there instead!

Posting this for every parent out there, who likes to sing to their baby as they wake in the morning and as they as go to sleep in the evening,

 

For every parent out there, who usually hold their babies with two hands to feed them,

 

For every parent out there, who would like to see the lyrics as they sing along to their baby,

For every parent out there, who don't have their hands free while they do. 

Please do make this feature already. 

We are a small community (parents), but we care, deeply.

Thank you,

Léo

Yes please, kindly include this option in which when we go on full screen, we could see the lyrics and not only the album or song title.  Because that is mostly the reason why we wanted to have it on full screen, to see the lyrics clearly while sync in the music.  this is to help us enjoy more this app by singing along with the music that we listen to and not just stare on those images and song titles.

 

Hope that this will be granted.  Thank you.

Is Spotify working on this? It seems like a no brainier. 🤷‍♀️

Maybe a simple toggle switch to pin the lyrics to stay persistent when the song changes, or have them disappear each time the song changes.  The default of having the lyrics screen close at each song change makes it incredibly not-hands-free to do karaoke style sing along

歌詞是一首歌的靈魂,怎麼會在切換歌曲時需要將放鬆休息的手還需要再次伸出來按螢幕控制歌詞才能顯示呢?

I genuinely think it's dumb that this isn't a thing from the start, why does it seem like so much pushback from Spotify for it to be a thing? 

 

Like another commenter said, why can't there just be a switch on the lyrics screen or something, maby a box in settings, it's just strange to me..

I found it inconvenient to play music while looking at the lyrics and return to the album outwork screen when moving to the next song.
