Enhance Lyrics Feature: Font Size Control & Dynamic Color Support

[jeehun]

Hello Spotify Team,

I'd like to suggest some improvements to the lyrics display feature to enhance accessibility and user experience.

1. Font Size Control for Lyrics
   Currently, there is no way to adjust the font size of the lyrics on mobile or desktop. For users with visual impairments or small screen sizes, this can make it difficult to read the lyrics comfortably. Please consider adding a setting that allows users to customize the lyrics font size, just like subtitle settings in video platforms.

2. Dynamic Color and Background Effects (like Apple Music)
   Apple Music provides dynamic background and lyric color transitions based on the song or album art. This creates a much more immersive and visually pleasing experience. Spotify’s lyrics are currently displayed in plain white on a dark background, which feels limited and less engaging. A more dynamic presentation — with smooth lyric highlighting and background color shifts — would greatly improve the aesthetics of the feature.

These features would not only help with accessibility but also modernize the Spotify lyrics experience to match or exceed competing platforms. I (and many users like me) would love to see these updates in future versions.

Thank you for reading and for your continuous effort to improve the platform.

Best regards.

This would be great! Hope they implement something like this soon

For users who listen to Spotify while working, many use the PiP (Picture-in-Picture) feature to monitor and watch podcasts. Since some users love this feature, it would also be great to add an option to display lyrics or subtitles. This way, if users want to sing along to the chorus of a song while they’re on their work screen (e.g., Excel or other work tabs), they can follow the lyrics even if they don’t already know them.
