User Reviews

Users praise The Lyrics App for being free, simple, and a strong lyric-organization tool with line-by-line structure and built-in voice recording. It’s seen as a straightforward, focused capture space that helps with rhymes, structure, and keeping ideas organized (including folders). Recurrent complaints center on resilience and feature gaps: data loss of songs/recordings, no sign-in or cloud backup, missing syllable counting, copy/paste spacing issues, and occasional performance glitches with peripherals.

Pros

Free to use with no paywall
Simple, clean, easy-to-use interface (everything on one screen)
Strong lyric organization and structure support (lines/sections, pre-choruses, folders)
Voice recording to capture ideas/melodies
Helpful for rhymes, word choice, and overall songwriting workflow

Cons

Data loss or disappearance of lyrics and recordings (stability/backups)
Lacks sign-in/cloud sync and password protection to prevent data loss
Missing syllable counting feature
Copy/paste between sections sometimes collapses spacing (formatting issues)
Occasional performance/stability glitches (lag or crashes with peripherals)

I was so pleased to discover that when I installed the app on another device, all my songs came flying in. Wow! What a huge time-saver. This is my go-to app for those early stages when crafting the lyrics and melody. A real one-stop shop and so easy to use yet so powerful.

This app is great, it does exactly what it says, no ads, and it’s free! Well deserved 5 stars, I’d give ya six if I could

This was just what I needed to have everything on one screen. If you’re ever looking for suggestions, the ability to add inline chords with the lyrics would make it even better.
