Before starting with the article I would like to say that I'm not 100% sure it's new to tvOS 10.1. Explained this, We can now read the lyrics of Apple Music songs from our Apple TV fourth generation. Personally I listen to music many times on my Apple TV 4 and today I have seen a new icon that I had never seen before from which we can see the aforementioned lyrics.
Apple released tvOS 10.1 and seems which came with an unexpected surprise. Even before the launch of the latest version of the operating system for the fourth-generation Apple TV, when we clicked on the cover of a song we only saw three points (…) from where we could perform actions such as «Go to album», «Delete from the library "or" Add to a list ", but now a new button appears that has caught my attention. This button does not appear on all songs; It is only available on songs that have their lyrics included in Apple Music.
New button allows us to see the lyrics of the songs on the Apple TV 4
Accessing this new option to view the lyrics is very simple and just follow these steps:
- We scroll to a song. It does not have to be playing, but its cover art does.
- We click on its cover, which will show us an image like the one we have above these lines where we see the current song, the previous one, the later one, the position of the reproduction and, in the upper part, the three points of the options and three lines of different size from where we will access the letters.
- We slide on the touch surface of the Siri Remote upwards.
- The last step is to scroll to the left and click when we have selected all three lines.
I, who listen to a lot of music in English, greatly appreciate this option that was already available on iOS and iTunes. What do you think we can see the lyrics of the songs on Apple TV?
It was already available for a few months (minimum 2)
