User Reviews

Users praise readable, well-integrated lyrics and a polished UI. When syncing works, timing is accurate and lyrics flow with songs. It covers a broad set of tracks and supports user-added or time-synced lyrics, and it’s free. However, the sync feature is inconsistent and not all music videos are supported, which can limit use. Overall, a strong, visually appealing tool that enhances YouTube Music with lyrics for most tracks, with room for reliability and compatibility improvements.
Pros
  • Improved lyric readability and broad song coverage (lyrics are more visible and found for most songs).
  • Accurate and well-timed lyrics syncing when the feature works.
  • Polished UI with smooth animations and attractive visuals.
  • Flexibility to add or customize lyrics and support for time-synced lyrics (free).
  • Strong overall quality and positive user sentiment (extensive praise and usefulness).
Cons
  • Syncing can be unreliable or fail on many tracks, reducing usefulness.
  • Limited compatibility with music videos; not all videos work with lyrics.
