In plain English

EeveeSpotifyReincarnated is a tweak, meaning a small software modification, for the Spotify iOS app that makes Spotify behave as though your account has a Premium subscription, even without paying for one. It intercepts the data Spotify loads about your account and modifies it in real time, granting access to features like unlimited skips and ad free listening. The project is a continuation of earlier similar tweaks, first Spotilife, then EeveeSpotify, that were discontinued when their maintainers stepped away from upkeep. The current fork was created after a previous continuation, EeveeSpotifyRevivedPublic, left a persistent logout bug unresolved for months. Beyond the fake Premium functionality, the tweak replaces Spotify's built in lyrics feature with your choice of four alternative lyrics providers: Genius, Musixmatch, LRCLIB, and PetitLyrics. Some of these support time synced lyrics, meaning words that highlight as the song plays, while Genius offers a broader song catalog without synchronization. To use it, you need a jailbroken iPhone or a way to sideload apps, meaning you install modified app files, called IPA packages, outside the official App Store. The README walks through building your own IPA using GitHub Actions, which automates the patching process without the maintainers distributing the patched file directly, likely to avoid the DMCA takedown that affected an earlier version of the project. It is worth noting that server side Premium features such as very high audio quality, native playlist downloading, and AI DJ cannot be unlocked by this tweak, since those require Spotify's own servers to verify a paid subscription. The project is written in Swift, and the README does not state a license.
