New share-card layouts
Share Lyrics gets two brand-new card layouts — Card (reel-style with a header chip) and Poster (big centered artwork) — pick them from Card options. The auto background color is now derived from the artwork's true vibrant tone and matches everywhere: lyrics page, share dialog and the rendered card.
