do not download. Costs money
This app isn’t free. Don’t be deceived. Working to get it removed from the Apple Store
Good but finicky
Good but doesn’t work all the time. The main thing is I wish the word could take up the whole screen out be aside the maps as well
基本没用
经常性卡死，不显示歌词，应该是属于屎山代码写的程序，一旦卡住，不管如何切换歌曲都没有用
Not worth it
Doesn’t always work. It will work sometimes and other times it won’t. I refuse to pay for an app that works when it wants to
It was good
At first didn’t need to have on lock screen for it to work, now you have to reset settings each time you use it, in app and on lock screen. Often doesn’t match with speed of song
Terrible now
Lags now when connected to CarPlay, they added the live activities all the time feature and ruined the app.
Not worth $10
Constantly having issues with it loading onto carplay. Stops working randomly then randomly pops up yet it's constantly running in the background drowning my battery. I can use it for MAYBE one song and it'll stop loading the lyrics mid-song. It was working fine before but curiously enough after I paid, I started having problem. Deleted the app, not worth it.
Can’t Cancel
There is no place to “cancel” subscription and sometimes the lyrics won’t refresh. Has a lot of issues that need fixed.
Do not work anymore
It’s not getting the musics anymore
DOESN’T WORK
The lyrics show up on the CarPlay screen, but they don’t scroll, at all. Defeats the purpose. Also they’re really small.
Slow ahh app
The lyrics keeps pausing after every word and I have to refresh it everytime
Doesn’t work well
Doesn’t work well
Doesn’t work
I have a new car, Apple CarPlay, and the widget populates but it ALWAYS lagged or even so behind the song has changed. Constantly having to sign into Spotify. Have had it a week and can’t get it to work once. Also it’s paid to get it on your car.
Not worth it whatsoever
Overall it works, but it’s extremely laggy and lyrics are almost never accurate. Carplay almost never loads and even if it does, the next song is for sure not gonna load. If anything, get rid of the price or at least lower it.
NOT WORTH IT
I purchased the lifetime thing for $9.99 and i want a refund and to cancel the subscription!!! it doesnt work in my car nor my phone!!!! I have email twice in the span of 2 months and havent heard anything because it wont let you cancel it anywhere on the app or app store!!! i am not happy!
Lyrics on CarPlay
They don’t show and keep saying enable live activities even though they are enabled
Was good and now sucks
This app sucks, the lyrics never load, wish I never paid for it
sad
is not working 😒💔
Widget Lyrics Off
Even with maxing out the delay to 5000ms and having premium. Lyrics in CarPlay widgets don’t line up with audio.
bad
glitchy. premium features aren’t premium
Lyrics only show for one song.
Everytime the song changes it wants me to update the live activities settings to get lyrics to show. Half of the time toggling won’t even make them come on.
good until they got greedy
the one reason i downloaded this app was to use it for carplay, and it worked pretty good for this purpose until they decided to make it a payed feature. deleted bc that’s the dumbest thing ever unfortunately
Booo
Needs subscription
Don’t waste your money
Spent 10$ and 30 mins trying to figure this app out for Apple CarPlay just for the lyrics to not update in real time no matter how much trouble shooting I did. Don’t waste your money like I did if you want it for that purpose.
Misleading App
The lyrics never refreshes! What a waste of money!
Not worth the pay
Constantly having to refresh the lyrics, lyrics does not match the audio, even when Live lyrics enabled it still says it’s not
it’s not worth it
this app used to be free. now you have to pay to have lyrics displayed on your carplay. not worth it honestly
What a waste doesn’t work
Paid for the subscription so I could have the lyrics on my CarPlay. They kinda worked at first not much. I figured an update would make it better. It has only gotten worse now I have to allow to have all my data and it still won’t show the lyrics. The lyrics will not update or change to the next song unless you go into the app and keep finishing with it and what’s the point at that point, what a waste of money. Paid in full so can’t get a refund.
Another app, another pay wall
They recently pay walled pretty much the only important feature that this app has which is the live activities. I mainly used it for lyrics in CarPlay. Now I can’t anymore
Very hard to synchronize
Waste of time, very good idea but poorly executed
I WANT REFUND
Such a hassle to use now. It used to be free on CarPlay, but now is a premium feature.
Now I have to complete 2 steps EVERY SINGLE TIME I want to use the feature. I have to toggle live activities to turn on in the app then open up settings and permit live activities for CarPlay.
Thing is, I already have it set to on but the app won’t recognize that it. I have to toggle it in the Settings app EVERY SINGLE TIME.

This could’ve been a free app…
No point in charging for lyrics displayed on a screen😹. Just money hungry and greedy while the app barely works 💔
You now have to pay to essentially use it!
it was great at first literally FREE & now you have to pay to literally use it !!? yeah no, f that. pretty sure they’re losing hella customers with that stupid new update.
NOW REQUIRES YOU TO PAY TO USE FOR CARPLAY!
it makes you pay a subscription to use its services for carplay now! it is ridiculous considering half of the time i have to manually click on the widget on the screen for the lyrics to update to the new song!
Waste of Money
Really disappointed with the app. Downloaded the app pretty excited, but all of the features that I wanted were for the premium version, so I bought it. The premium version was highly disappointing and barely better than the normal version. I want a refund. So disappointed…
Stopped working
I paid for a lifetime premium a few months ago, and it worked well on CarPlay but it has quit working in the past few weeks. Just tells me I need to enable live activities and when I do, it still doesn’t work. Waste of money!
Y’all ran out
Changing it from free to a paywall is crazy… uninstalling 🫤
Not free anymore
Used to be good but now they started charging for the features
Broke
Recent change broke it on carplay - tapping the control panel button on ios to turn on live activities just toggles off automatically after a moment or switching away
Paywall
Made a free option (only useful option) and put it behind a monthly subscription
Horrible since purchasing premium
I purchased the premium to have unlimited access and since doing so the application never works correctly despite following the trouble shooting options
Sadly
Used to be a great app till they started charging to use it
Was fun until it wasn’t
Got this so it would show lyrics on my CarPlay didn’t use any other features but now trying to charge in order for me to see the lyrics it’s ridiculous the app it’s mid you have to open it in your phone every time the song changed and for free I don’t mind the inconvenience but now trying to charge for an app that it’s not worth it yeah I uninstalled on the spot
Trash
Doesn’t automatically refresh on apple carplay
Greed
Takes functionality that used to be free and makes you pay for it. Truly evil
Butt
I bought the premium and it’s still terrible. It’s never working and it’s not right on my car either
Now it’s pay to use
I loved the lyrics feature on CarPlay widget now it’s a paid feature only. No one’s going to use this app anymore. You could just charge a few dollars to buy the app making a monthly subscription is crazy. Uninstalled
Doesn’t even work.
It doesn’t even work anymore and it’s behind a paywall. I got the premium option and it works worse than when it was free. Honestly a terrible scam.
No use anymore
App was amazing to use at first when everyone first started using it for CarPlay then developers got hungry and made it only a premium app and if you keep the free version you only use lyrics in the app and not on CarPlay, and if you want the widget you don’t even get a large one you get a small pop up that shows one line of the lyric so you won’t even know what’s next
Buggy
Never works without pressing the CarPlay screen. Then flip a coin to see if it continues to work. Usually it does not work. Update after update and no fix.
