SpotifyTranscript Free vs Pro: when to upgrade

Compare the Free and Pro boundaries in SpotifyTranscript so you can pick the right plan for how you listen.

Use Free when you're still reading along

The free version of SpotifyTranscript is for following lyrics while you listen — the side panel, auto-scroll, and current-line highlighting. You should be able to enjoy that core experience without paying anything.

  • Unlimited side lyrics panel
  • Auto-scroll synced with playback
  • Current-line highlighting
  • One-click sidebar toggle
  • Playback controls (play/pause/next/prev/progress)

Use Pro when lyrics become something to keep

Pro is for when lyrics stop being a passing read and become something you save or display: exporting to .lrc/.txt for your media player, or the floating overlay when the web player tab isn't in focus.

  • Unlimited side lyrics panel
  • Auto-scroll synced with playback
  • Current-line highlighting
  • One-click sidebar toggle
  • Playback controls (play/pause/next/prev/progress)
  • Export lyrics to .txt / .lrc
  • Real-time floating lyrics overlay
  • Lyrics translation (20+ languages)
  • Playback speed control (0.25x–5x)
  • Lifetime deal, yours forever

A simple upgrade rule

If you've wished you could export or overlay lyrics more than once this week, Pro's lifetime deal probably pays for itself. If you're happy just reading along, stay on Free.

Try LyricSide

Install the extension, start with the free lyrics workflow, and upgrade to Pro only when export or the floating overlay becomes part of your routine.
