EeveeSpotify is an iOS tweak that modifies the Spotify app so it behaves as if the user holds a Premium subscription, allowing free listening similar to the older Spotilife tweak. It also adds features such as custom lyrics. This repository is a fork of the original project, which was disabled following a DMCA takedown; it deliberately does not host IPA packages, which were likely the reason for that takedown. How it works: from version 4.0 onward, the tweak intercepts Spotify requests that load user data, deserializes them, and modifies parameters in real time. Earlier versions instead patched the cached offline.bnk file, replacing it with a preset file containing premium values and inserting the current username. The tweak also adjusts artist page behavior so track rows and a liked-tracks row appear as they would with Premium. Lyrics support: EeveeSpotify replaces Spotify's monthly-limited lyrics with one of four providers. Genius offers high-quality, frequently updated lyrics but is not time-synced. LRCLIB is the most open option and provides time-synced lyrics, though coverage is limited. Musixmatch, the service Spotify itself uses, provides time-synced lyrics but requires a user token. PetitLyrics offers many time-synced Japanese lyrics plus some international ones. If a song cannot be found or processed, a "Couldn't load the lyrics for this song" message appears. Known limitations: several features are server-side and will never work, including Very High audio quality, native playlist downloading (podcast episodes can be downloaded), hosting or remotely joining Spotify Jam, AI DJ/Playlist, and Spotify Connect, which behaves as a Free subscription. Local downloading is technically possible but is not included. Building: the README documents building an IPA through GitHub Actions. Users fork the repository, enable Read and Write permissions under Actions, sync the fork, select the "Create IPA Packages" workflow, and run it with a direct download URL to a decrypted IPA file (which the project cannot provide for legal reasons) plus the link to the matching .deb release asset for the phone's architecture. The resulting IPA is available in the fork's releases section. The project is free and open source and accepts crypto donations. The README also notes using OpenSpotifySafariExtension to open Spotify links in a sideloaded app.
