  1. 4/5Great Start…

    Hey, really like where you are going with this. Love the syllable count along left margin, and the way you don’t highlight all prospective rhymes or interesting word combinations like Rhymer’s Block does. I also like that all rhymes are different colors. Presumably phonetic rhymes occur across song sections? Would be cool. A few changes to make it ready for me to buy: 1) move the rhyme list over to the right side of the screen so it doesn’t obscure the lyrics I already have while I’m searching for a rhyme; I’d prefer if it wasn’t separate window but just another column too with less clutter; so the app is not trying to find rhymes too much, let us sit over a word for maybe 5-10 seconds before you start showing rhymes; 2) show internal rhymes within a line or neighboring lines; 3) add more rhymes; 4) have a looser interpretation of what rhymes to include imperfect rhymes, such as “aim” and “games”. This could be a big app I think. Wish you well with further development! Good luck!

  2. 5/5GREAT UI

    I’ll start this off by saying what a great app and also it is very nicely put together. It is exactly what I want in a lyric tabbing app. I wish there was a one time payment option instead of a subscription but I understand the creators are being compensated for their awesome work on this app! That would be my only “suggestion”. The app Rocket Money allows for a subscription but of any price that is deemed fair to the customer. It’s usually 7 dollars a month but I felt $3 was fair with how much I was making and for what I was getting out of the app. i’ve been using rhymers block to see if I like it better but honestly I enjoy your app so much more! Either way, I love what is happening in this app and can’t wait to see how it grows more.

  3. 2/5It's Okay...

    I have started using this app, and it is helpful because it keeps count of how many syllables you use. But, I think that this app needs different sections for different things. For example, there can be a section for the chorous, and a section for the pre-chorous. This is very helpful for me because I am very new to song-writing and I like it whenever the app kind of helps you by using sections. Whenever I opened up this app I realized that it did not have different sections and I felt like the app was just throwing me out there and not helping me at all.

  4. 5/5Real Mac App for Writing Lyrics

    This app does exactly what it says, looks great, and does it while being a real Mac app. It's exactly what I wanted. It uses plain text files, which is amazing, because they're easy to backup and I'm not locked in at all. On top of it all, the developer is extremely responsive. It's the app I would make, but now I don't have to!

  5. 5/5Delightful, Clean, Focused App

    I feel like this may not be getting a fair shake, or maybe I'm on a curve as I'm just using it for poetry. This is an excellent, universal minimalist writing app with helpful syllable tracking and a nice break-glass-in-case-of-emergency rhyme dictionary. Hopping between the Mac and iPhone apps as I work out my poems has been an absolute pleasure. Thanks!
