• New Premium welcome screen at launch — see what Premium unlocks and start the 14-day full-feature free trial with one tap. One purchase covers both iPhone and Mac. • Lyrics are now written into the audio file itself. Sidecar .lrc files and auto-fetched lyrics get baked into the file's tags, so they travel with your music to any player. A new bulk action in Tidy Up does the same for songs already in your library. • Floating controls pick up the new glass material on iOS 26 and macOS 26 — mini player bar, player controls, and the floating play capsule. • Import failures now tell you why: not an audio file, no music library folder chosen, copy failed, download failed. No more bare failure counts. • Clearer server connection errors. On iOS the most common cause is a denied Local Network permission, and Sovault now says so and offers a shortcut to Settings. The underlying error stays available as selectable fine print for support emails. • Fixed: lyrics already stored inside your files showed as "No lyrics" in the player. The player now reads the file's own lyrics tag, and syncs what it finds to your other devices. • Fixed: on Mac, the spectrum bars kept dancing after you paused, the now-playing highlight stayed on the previous row when a track auto-advanced, and iCloud download badges did not refresh. • Fixed: on Mac, an unreachable music library folder could clear library records — ratings, play counts, playlist membership. A safety cut-out now prevents that. • Fixed: on Mac, renaming your music library folder in Finder no longer makes Sovault forget where it is. • Fixed: on Mac, the music library setup screen could be dismissed and never return for the rest of the session. • Fixed: an interrupted overwrite upload could lose the file on the server. The new copy is now uploaded first, then swapped in. • Fixed: failures during the download stage were missing from import reports, making success rates look better than they were. • The iOS mini player progress line now adapts its thickness to light and dark appearance.

• The 100-song import limit is gone. Import your entire library, free. • New: start a 14-day free trial of every Premium feature — no payment required. • Advanced format playback (APE, DSD, WavPack, TAK, WMA, DTS and 25+ more) and importing directly from SMB/FTP/WebDAV servers are now Premium features. Everything you've already imported stays in your library and stays visible; MP3, AAC, ALAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF and Opus remain free to play. • New Auto-Organize: files are filed into Artist/Album folders on import and after tag edits. Off by default — turn it on in Settings. • New sleep timer: stop at the end of the current track, or after a set number of minutes. • New square artwork theme on the Now Playing screen, and a new sequential play mode that stops when the queue ends. • Tidy Up gains two new categories: low-quality files, and possible duplicates — keep one copy, merge its play count, rating and playlists, and clear out the rest. • New Activity Center collects batch imports, syncing, organizing and quality analysis in one place. Every batch import now writes a report you can open later, listing exactly what was added, skipped or failed — with the filenames. • Bit rate, sample rate, channels, bit depth and codec are now stored for every track and shown in Get Info. • Open audio files straight into Sovault from Files or Finder using Open With. • Sync improvements: empty folders and .lrc lyrics files now travel with your library. • iOS lists now use the system multi-select gesture, and the mini player shows playback progress along its bottom edge. • Many fixes: shuffle no longer reverts to sequential order after two tracks, batch tag edits refile correctly, multi-select actions apply to the whole selection, and empty folders stop reappearing across devices. On Mac, libraries of 1,000+ tracks scroll and switch far more smoothly, and list state is no longer lost when changing sections.

• All-new player themes: live spectrum visualizer (6 styles, swipe to switch) and synced lyrics with karaoke-style highlighting (.lrc supported) • Online lyrics: fetch manually or auto-fill while playing (enable in Settings) • Last.fm: connect your account and scrobble your plays, with offline queue and Loved-track sync • Tidy Up: find songs with missing artwork, missing info, or garbled tags in one place; batch-edit and fill metadata online (Premium) • File manager: browse your library folders — rename, move, delete, and create folders (enable in Settings) • macOS: floating mini player, full-window immersive player, improved queue panel • Locate the current song instantly (long-press the mini player on iOS / ⌘L on Mac); filter songs by format • Sync upgrades: preserve folder structure; two-way sync can optionally propagate deletions • Screen stays awake while the player is open on iOS — great for lyrics • Fixed Lock Screen / CarPlay progress not updating, sort order resetting after relaunch, and several display issues

• Broader audio format support: APE, WavPack, TTA, TAK, Musepack, DSD and many more lossless and niche formats now play directly • Tag encoding repair: automatically detects and fixes GBK/Big5 garbled text, with a manual fix that writes corrections back permanently • Customizable columns in the macOS song list, including file type and size • Pull-to-search added to every list for faster browsing • Playback automatically resumes when Bluetooth or headphones reconnect • Fixed several issues: incorrect playback during phone calls, favorite heart display, and unresponsive Restore Purchases • Stability and performance improvements

• Added WebDAV browsing and import — connect directly to a WebDAV server to import music • Improved remote connection forms: more reliable port auto-fill and clearer WebDAV credential requirements • Fixed an issue where hiding all tabs could hide the Settings entry point; refreshed the iOS 15–17 tab bar to match newer iOS

This update includes bug fixes and stability improvements.
