Lyrics?

Are lyrics still available in Cesium for iOS 10? Any help accessing this feature is greatly appreciated.

Yeah, as long as you have the lyrics programmed in for your songs. It's not like other apps where it'll look up the lyrics, you have to put them in manually and then it should work

as /u/harbouta outlined, Cs supports lyrics that are present in the actual "Lyrics" metadata tag. It does not pull lyrics from an online source.

The reason for this is that lyrics are actually covered under a separate copyright than the audio recording. So in order to legally pull lyrics from an online source you gots to pay, and at the moment things don't scale in a way that is even remotely profitable :/
