Music widget for macOS Catalina

[iRaynor SK]

Hello,

I used app Lyrical on macOS Mojave and it was good, but it doesn’t work with Music app in Catalina and developer said that he was not able to get Lyrical work with Music app in macOS Catalina.

So as backup plan, I’m finding alternative. It should include:

- dark mode
- Notification Centre widget with option to show lyrics directly in widget (this feature I loved on Lyrical) and with base controls like skip or pause music
- Apple Music support
- notifications when new song is played

Thanks!

Hi,

Is this the app you mean?

‎Lyrical is a Notification Center widget, written in Swift, that displays lyrics for the current playing song and various song information including album artwork. The widget lets you control the playback of the song, or set ratings. This is incredibly useful if you are using multiple apps and...

Maybe you could persuade him to open source his app if he's not interested in continuing with it?

I'd initially thought about knocking something similar up quickly, but communicating with the new Music app seems to have some unexpected difficulties!
