This tweak makes Spotify think you have a Premium subscription, granting free listening, just like Spotilife, and provides some additional features like custom lyrics.
Several months ago, Spotilife, the only tweak to get Spotify Premium, stopped working on new Spotify versions. I decompiled Spotilife, reverse-engineered Spotify, intercepted requests, etc., and created this tweak.
Please refrain from opening issues about the following features, as they are server-sided and will NEVER work:
In theory, implementing downloading/offline mode locally should be possible, but it will not be included in this tweak.
EeveeSpotify replaces Spotify monthly limited lyrics with one of the following three lyrics providers:
Genius: Offers the best quality lyrics, provides the most songs, and updates lyrics the fastest. Does not and will never be time-synced.
LRCLIB: The most open service, offering time-synced lyrics. However, it lacks lyrics for many songs.
Musixmatch: The service Spotify uses. Provides time-synced lyrics for many songs, but you'll need a user token to use this source. To obtain the token, download Musixmatch from the App Store, sign up, then go to Settings > Get help > Copy debug info, and paste it into EeveeSpotify alert. You can also extract the token using MITM.
If the tweak is unable to find a song or process the lyrics, you'll see a "Couldn't load the lyrics for this song" message. The lyrics might be wrong for some songs (e.g. another song, song article) when using Genius due to how the tweak searches songs. While I've made it work in most cases, kindly refrain from opening issues about it.
Starting with version 4.0, EeveeSpotify intercepts Spotify requests to load user data, deserializes it, and modifies the parameters in real-time. This method is the best so far and works incredibly stable. You can select the dynamic Premium patching method in the EeveeSpotify settings.
Upon login, Spotify fetches user data and caches it in the offline.bnk
file in the /Library/Application Support/PersistentCache
directory. It uses its proprietary binary format to store data, incorporating a length byte before each value, among other conventions. Certain keys, such as player-license
, financial-product
, streaming-rules
, and others, determine the user abilities.
