Apple Music extends lyric availability to seven more countries

Apple Music has extended its song lyrics and lyric search to seven more countries.

Australia was among the first to get the features last year, alongside Canada, the US, and the UK.

In the latest move, listeners in New Zealand, France, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, South Africa, and Spain.

Song lyrics appear onscreen in the Apple Music app when a song is playing.

Lyric search allows users to type in snippets of words from a song they have buzzing in their heads but can’t identify, which the service then finds from its database.

Spotify has had lyric support since 2016.
