UPDATED: No Lyrics to Playlist v3.3

This applet will scan the Music library or a selected playlist for tracks whose “Custom Lyrics” tags are blank and copy them to a new discrete playlist. Can also toggle to search only for tracks with lyrics.

(Please Note: The script can only discover tracks with “Custom Lyrics” provided by the user. There is no accounting for lyrics made available via Apple Music or Cloud/Sync Library. That data is inaccessible.)

No Lyrics to Playlist in action

Latest version:

  • UI and layout updates for macOS 26 and later
  • Improved selection logic
  • Adds Command-. to cancel
  • Maintenance
  • Icon and docs update
