Spotify Quietly Restricts Lyrics Access for Ad-Supported Accounts — And Users Aren’t Happy About the...

TL;DR


1. Spotify has quietly restricted access to song lyrics for users with ad-supported accounts, a change that has not been well-received by many users. This means that these users can no longer view lyrics within the Spotify app, a feature that was previously available to all users, regardless of their subscription plan.

2. The change has sparked backlash from Spotify users, who have taken to social media to express their frustration with the decision. Many users feel that the ability to view lyrics is an essential feature, particularly for those who use Spotify to sing along to their favorite songs or to learn the lyrics to new music.

3. Spotify has not provided a clear explanation for the change, leaving users to speculate about the reasons behind it. Some have suggested that the move is an attempt to drive more users towards Spotify's premium subscription service, which still provides access to lyrics, while others have criticized the company for limiting features for its ad-supported users.
