User Reviews

Users repeatedly praise Hymnal for its on-screen lyrics, piano accompaniment, quick hymn search, translations, and portability. However, recurring issues with audio playback and unreliable piano accompaniment, plus a strong demand for on-screen sheet music and simultaneous lyric/musical reading, highlight the app’s key weaknesses. Overall, improvements exist, but audio reliability and reading tools remain top focus areas.
Pros
  • Piano accompaniment and hymn lyrics can be viewed simultaneously on screen, enabling singing with both audio and text.
  • Lyrics/words are displayed with hymns, helping users read along while singing.
  • Fast, intuitive hymn search by title or hymn number with instant results (no loading delays).
  • Translations (Spanish and Portuguese) and display options (white/black background) enhance readability and accessibility.
  • Significant convenience: users no longer need to carry a physical hymnal and can learn songs at home with ease.
Cons
  • Audio playback issues are frequently reported, with users experiencing missing or unusable sound across songs.
  • Piano accompaniment/Integrated audio features can be unreliable or nonfunctional after updates, leading to inconsistent use.
  • A common desire is visible, on-screen sheet music or visual harmony to read beyond just lyrics, which is currently lacking for many hymns.
  • Users often want to read lyrics while the music plays, a feature that has been inconsistently available and is repeatedly requested.

The app is pretty fine over all, but I really miss having the sheet music to look at while singing. It makes it a lot easier to sing, especially songs I don’t know as well. I also can’t sing other parts without the sheet music

Great app and a good idea. I figured out that a lot of people are having problems listening to the audio. To fix that problem turn on your ringer but the other problem is the buttons disappear. While they do disappear, they aren't gone they are just invisible.

The music no longer works. Please fix this if possible. When you open up the app, the first page shows a music symbol to press and start music, but once you switch to a different song, the music symbol disappears and you can’t play music anymore.
