Could you build this?
Partial Creating a sleek menu bar or overlay app is easy, but integrating cross-browser media session hooks, reverse-engineering real-time lyrics synchronization, and managing deep macOS private APIs requires specialized native development.
What it would actually take: Requires native Swift/macOS development utilizing Accessibility APIs, MediaRemote framework hooks, and AppleScript/browser extension bridges to capture current media from diverse players. The difficult components are syncing time-stamped lyrics across disparate browser contexts without official APIs and handling native notch overlays seamlessly without performance degradation.
