Lyra is free, open-source macOS software licensed under the MIT License. You are permitted to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, and distribute copies of the software freely in accordance with the license.
Lyra connects locally on your machine with supported media players such as Spotify and Apple Music, querying public community lyric databases to provide synchronized lyrics. All music titles, lyrics, and trademarks remain the property of their respective copyright owners.
Your privacy is respected by design. Lyra operates with zero telemetry, meaning no personal data, identifiers, or playback history are ever collected, stored, or transmitted to any private tracking server.
All financial contributions made to Lyra are voluntary support gifts intended to aid ongoing maintenance, infrastructure costs, and open-source development. Every contribution is final once the transaction is executed.
For questions, support inquiries, or feedback, check Contacts.
Lyra is engineered with strict privacy principles and does not collect, monitor, profile, or sell any personal information or telemetry.
The application operates entirely on your local machine, reading currently active song metadata directly from running media player applications such as Spotify and Apple Music through macOS system APIs.
When searching for synchronized lyrics, Lyra sends anonymous track metadata consisting solely of track title and artist name to public community databases.
No user accounts, unique device identifiers, IP addresses, playback histories, location coordinates, or keystrokes are ever gathered, stored, or transmitted to any centralized database or third-party analytic service.
All application preferences, appearance settings, and local cache files reside strictly on your local macOS filesystem and can be cleared or deleted by you at any time.
If you have questions, feedback, feature suggestions, or need technical assistance with Lyra, you can reach out directly to the developer via
Any financial contributions made towards Lyra are entirely voluntary support gifts intended to aid ongoing maintenance, infrastructure costs, and open-source development.
