Ratings and reviews

My initial experience with this app was weird with a barrage of notifications, and I un-installed. But after trying some other apps, I decided to give it another chance. It seems to be working now, and I plan to continue to use it. My wish would be that it could highlight the current line and follow along like karaoke, but I'm pretty happy that it identifies my currently streaming song and loads the lyrics quickly. But why do I need a username???

Great app, I've been using to see the lyrics for my fav songs for years. But the one issue I've seemed to consistently have is that it won't always suggest me lyrics based on what I'm listening to most times. It used to give me the lyrics all the time as a notification but nowadays it doesn't anymore except for a few select times it did work, I'm unsure if this has to do with app or maybe it's my phone? But it's definitely a small issue I've faced.

This app used to be solid and helpful. The problem is it is very off and on, some months and some years it works flawlessly identifying songs in seconds. Other times it can't identify anything, new or old. It will scan for a long time and then tell you it can't find it or hear it. Doesn't matter how loud or how much of the song is clear or how close the speaker is to the music it just DOES NOT WORK. Sorry to give it a bad review but also very much not sorry and feels justified.
