Lyrics are spot on, and there's interpretations of them too. There's a glitch though where you can't play a song because a banner ad appears in the middle of it — please fix this. Also, you can't save songs for offline use or make a play list out of them (you have to manually change between the songs) — but I appreciate that this app is not meant to be for playing music. A nice feature would be a test to help you learn songs. Will change this to five stars if you fix aforementioned bugs.

Great app for finding lyrics & learning the meanings behind them. I do have a small issue with the Suggest Genius Lyrics feature. For example, Taylor Swift has rerecorded some of her albums, & these are labeled as Taylor's Version. When I play a song like Style (Taylor's Version), the app suggests lyrics from the older, original version instead. It seems like the app doesn’t fully recognize songs with parentheses in the title. I hope this gets improved because the rest of the app is excellent.

Thanks for your review! We did it like this because on platforms like YouTube, songs frequently have suffixes like "(Official Music Video)", which causes issues when trying to match with a Genius song page. To prevent this, we try to strip out anything in parenthesis. It's a trade-off, but in most cases it makes the end result more accurate.

Phenomenal app for rehearsing song lyrics. I like to sing to myself in my room, and Genius helps me to do so easily, and clearly. It allows to me search the name of a song, artist or album, and find a song of interest, and then learn the lyrics of the song. Overall it has helped me learn alot of lyrics and has even helped me to be more confident with myself and my capabilities as an autistic person. I love this app and will continue to use it. I recommend it if you like singing songs.
