Lyrics side panel is back

The Apple Music-style lyrics side panel returns — an overlay on the right with live word-by-word karaoke, sharing the exact rendering of the full lyrics page. Toggle it from the playback bar menu, click a line to seek, and it auto-follows the song (pausing briefly when you scroll).

Download

Pick your platform from the Assets below:

Platform Files
Windows Noctis-v1.2.4-Setup.exe (installer) · Noctis-windows-x64.zip (portable)
macOS Noctis-osx-arm64.dmg (Apple Silicon) · Noctis-osx-x64.dmg (Intel)
Linux Noctis-x86_64.AppImage · Noctis-linux-x64.tar.gz · Noctis-linux-arm64.tar.gz

Running on macOS — the app isn't code-signed, so Gatekeeper quarantines it on first launch. After dragging Noctis into your Applications folder, clear the flag once in Terminal:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Noctis.app

Then open Noctis normally.
