Song Switch Lag

After switching songs, Lyricify takes a long time to display the new song information or lyrics.

Song Information Still Shows the Previous Track After Switching

If the song information in Lyricify still shows the previous track after switching songs, this is likely due to a 429 issue.

For Spotify Premium Users

1. If the previous track automatically switches to the next one after finishing, or if you manually click the next button to switch songs, and you are using Spotify on the device running Lyricify:
   1. Check if the Media Session is connected (you can check by clicking the user component in the upper right corner of Lyricify).
   2. If connected, check if the Lyricify Smart Engine is enabled in the settings.
   3. If not connected, you need to first fix the Media Session connection issue.
2. If the issue persists, or if it is not one of the above situations, refer to Always Prompting 429 Error, and you can resolve it by configuring a Custom API Client.

For Non-Spotify Premium Users

You can optimize your experience by subscribing to Spotify Premium.
In non-Premium accounts, the Lyricify Smart Engine cannot function properly, and you cannot actively create a Custom API Client to resolve the 429 issue (but you can use another Premium user’s Client, see Tutorial).

Note

It is important to note that this is a limitation of the Spotify API and not an issue on the Lyricify side. Thank you for your understanding and support.
We have also provided feedback multiple times on the official Spotify Developer Forum regarding this issue, but currently, no adjustments have been made by the official team.

If the Song Information Has Been Updated After Switching

If the song information in Lyricify has been updated after switching songs, but there is a long delay before the lyrics appear, please complete the Lyrics Marking, as this can improve the efficiency of lyrics retrieval.
