Lyrics & meaning, in time with the music. Liner keeps lyrics, meanings, and translations in sync with the music you are already playing. Open the side panel, start a track, and Liner follows along line by line so you can read without losing your place. The panel is designed to stay out of the way while still giving you the context you want. - Precision timing Adjust the sync offset until the lyrics line up exactly. This is especially useful for YouTube videos with long intros, talk sections, or extended outros. Liner remembers the offset for that track the next time you play it. - Meaning and translation Hover a line to see its meaning from Genius, or translate the lyrics into more than 100 languages. You can keep the original and translated text side by side or switch to translation-only mode. - Listen Everywhere YouTube, YouTube Music, Spotify, Apple Music. - More than lyrics Save favorites, revisit song credits, search for alternate versions, control playback, and let the album art set the accent color of the panel. - Private by design Liner has no server of its own. It runs only on the sites you allow and keeps your settings and saved data in your browser. Free and ad-free. Lyrics, meanings, and credits belong to their respective rights holders. # Changelog All notable changes to Liner are documented here. ## 1.0.9 - **Multiple tabs, done right.** When music is playing in more than one tab, a **Source picker** appears at the top so you choose which tab Liner follows. Each tab is tracked independently, so the timer and lyrics no longer jump between songs when two tabs are playing at once. - **Live per-tab playback indicators.** Each music tab now keeps its own playing state, so the equalizer animates on every tab that is actually playing and disappears immediately when that tab is paused. - **Service icons in the song view.** The About section's listen buttons now use the same service icons as the tab picker, which makes the destinations easier to scan at a glance. - **Per-tab translation.** The translation language is now remembered **per tab**, so different tabs can show lyrics in different languages at the same time. - **Live translation indicator.** When lyrics are being translated, a progress indicator (with a 0-100% bar where available) shows that it is happening, instead of the lyrics quietly updating with no feedback. - **Refreshed, consistent UI.** The Source bar, the Auto-scroll / Search / Sync toolbar, and the tab bar now share one clean segmented style, and every row is aligned to the same width for a tidier panel. - **Better version matching.** "Other versions" now also searches by title alone, so the correct recording still shows up when the artist was mis-detected from the video title. ## 1.0.8 - **Tidal support** - added the Tidal web player (listen.tidal.com) to the supported sites. - **"Other versions" improvements** - each alternative now shows a **synced** tag when it has time-synced lyrics, and the list is **sorted by how closely its length matches the playing track** (closest first, with a matching length highlighted) to make picking the right recording easier. - **Settings** now shows the actual installed version number. ## 1.0.7 - first update since launch - **Translate lyrics into English.** English is now selectable as a translation language, so non-English songs can be translated into English (previously only other target languages were offered). - **More reliable lyric translation.** Lyrics that previously would not translate (because the translated line count did not line up with the original) now fall back to translating line-by-line, so the translation stays aligned. The source language is detected instead of always assuming English. - **Switching translation language now updates correctly.** Previously, once a song had been translated to one language, switching to another kept showing the first - fixed by tracking which language the cached translation is for. - **Simpler translation controls.** Removed the duplicate translate button - the header shows a clear "Translate" action until you pick a language, then a single translate bar takes over. The source label reads "Auto ->" instead of a hardcoded "English ->". - **Improved lyric sync on Apple Music** (web player) - reads the player's progress position instead of the HLS media element's buffer time. - **Cleaner "no lyrics" screen.** Removed the technical diagnostic text that showed when a track had no lyrics (for example, during ads). - Added a **"via Genius"** credit next to meanings. - Onboarding copy fix (removed a mention of a feature that did not exist). ## 1.0.0 - initial release Synced lyrics, line-by-line meaning, and translations in a side panel - for YouTube, YouTube Music, Spotify (web), Apple Music (web), and SoundCloud. Per-track sync offset, click-to-seek, favorites, song credits, and adaptive theming. No account, no ads, no data collection.
