Customize the look with HSL sliders or choose from presets like Orion, Sunset, Cyberpunk, and Aurora. * **Advanced Visual Customization:** Adjust background blur, darkness levels, text size, alignment, line spacing, and vertical position.

Frame rates automatically drop to ~4 FPS when playback is paused. * **Onboarding Guide:** Includes a built-in setup guide and video tutorial to get you started instantly. * **Privacy-First:** Optional collection of anonymous speed metrics (like lyric load times) to help improve performance, with a transparent opt-out switch available at any time.
