you can't use the app to connect to your karaoke machine, you have to use the kara web page in your browser after using a QR code.
★★★★ Cole Harris 6/22/2026

not user friendly. song lyrics not on screen.
★★★★ Kenneth Helton 6/17/2026

★★★★ Daniel Nash 6/13/2026
terrible. I give them my precious email just to gain access, then I'm pushed into songs I don't care about. I search the very first song and it's magically locked to non- premium subscribers. total scam, don't waste your time.
★★★★ John Fitzgerald 6/11/2026 v5.19.4
It seems impossible to unsubscribe from this app once they have your credit card details they continue to charge even after saying you are unsubscribed.
★★★★ Kane Lono 6/5/2026 v5.28.6
Well this is kinda dumb. Why does this phone app not work directly as a remote with the Ikarao karaoke machine?? Which has the same app installed on it? It only plays on the phone. Or a TV or some other device. Yes I know the Kerafun app on the Ikarao provides a remote to your phone, but the functions are super limited. Almost useless. Am I missing something?
★★★★ Justin Mull 6/4/2026 v5.28.6
so far, I cant even find a way to make a favorites list. I have an Ikarao(karafun also). if it lets me save songs for practicing instead of typing everything over and over again that woukd be much less annoying.
★★★★ Keron M 5/25/2026 v5.28.6
No stars. They are scam artists. I thought I canceled my account, I've been getting charged for a few months. I just tried to cancel again, none of the buttons work on the cancellation screen. I opened and closed the app about 20 times. The only button that worked was the keep subscription button. I will be contacting my bank to dispute the charges to my account.
★★★★ Angela Onunkwor 5/24/2026 v5.28.6
I downloaded this app just to do karaoke because it's fun, but there's nothing fun with not being able to complete a song that you like because I have to pay for it and it's not like there's any free songs to sing. If I could give this app zero stars I would.
★★★★ Sarah Holt 5/19/2026 v5.28.6
The app keeps misplaying and there is no one you can talk to about it.
★★★★ James West 5/17/2026 v5.28.6
app constantly runs in the background draining battery and try's to play music after being closed beep that
★★★★ brian king 5/13/2026

★★★★ Relaxedmassagetherapy 5/11/2026

★★★★ Edmond Gillet 5/11/2026
Absolute garbage app pay for any useful features absolutely no good for recreational use unless you want to be a subscriber ....... or sing along to 20 seconds in the middle of a song absolute stupidity and a complete waste of time . Just use YouTube
★★★★ Kayla Rizzo 5/8/2026
horrible
★★★★ Joseph Amoroso 5/5/2026
THIS IS NOT KARAFUN PLAYER 2. I COULD NOT CONTROL IT , I WAS STUCK IN THE THE QUIZ MODE. THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAVE BEEN USING FOR YEARS.

★★★★ Terence Tomsett 4/24/2026 v5.28.6
Much too difficult for an old codger of 87 to understand. Needs drastic simplification
★★★★ Delzie Holmes 4/20/2026 v5.28.5
really wanted to like it, but it doesn't explain how to use a microphone at all. so it doesn't pick me up at all. basically pointless.
★★★★ Terry O'Neill 4/15/2026 v5.28.5
it crashes constantly, easily the worst app I've ever installed on my phone. unusable
★★★★ Helen Charnock 4/15/2026 v5.28.5
Edited. I used to love this app now I can't get into it and I've litterally tried everything! cancelled Subscription. I have already contacted support. They are looking into the issue however no luck so far :( Needed for a live performance this Saturday.
★★★★ Divine 4/12/2026

★★★★ everly higgins 4/7/2026 v5.28.2

poor connection
★★★★★ Jayson Shene 6/8/2026 v5.19.4
Not my job.
★★★★★ Tarryl Benedetto 5/26/2026 v5.28.6
One of those apps that constantly puts itself into my Now Playing even though I don't tell it to, so have to stay signed out of it which makes it much more inconvenient to use
★★★★★ Guðjón Jónsson 5/24/2026 v5.20.0
I used to love KaraFun, but I switched after it stopped working with my LG Smart TV's built-in Chromecast. Casting used to work for me, but it seems newer Google Cast firmware isn’t properly supported. Support suggested using HDMI, but I prefer either a native webOS app or reliable casting. I hope one of those options becomes available in the future. For now, I've moved to Stingray Karaoke, which is inferior but at least they have a native webOS app and support casting to my TV.
★★★★★ David Hernandez Morales 5/8/2026
overall good but if you are paying for a service you should receive a good service. things that can be improved: 1 - the app keeps running in the background, you need to force stop in mobile devices, otherwise you'll see the app running when you block your device, this uses battery and device resources. 2 - no option to suggest new songs from the app. you need to visit an external link to do that. 3 - songs with typos, specifically in Spanish. If I get a free membership I can help with this.
★★★★★ Ajamarie Hurst 4/20/2026
app keeps opening up on its own to run in the background, and keeps showing up on my notifications bar when I havent opened it in over a week.
★★★★★ Dekel Amrani 4/11/2026 v5.28.2
doesn't support RTL
★★★★★ Laura Palmer 3/29/2026 v5.28.2
I loved your app before March 23rd. whatever you did now I don't have the capability to organize my song lists. either add or delete move around. I don't like it 😕
