Lyrcs: Write Lyrics Poetry Rap 4+

Great 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!

It'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.

Developer Response ,

Hey Writing Dragon, thanks so much for your review. So glad you’re loving the features like syllable counting! Being able to identify sections is also a great suggestion. Could you try writing the title of the section above your lines of lyrics? Given it’s a free app created to help out the song writing community, a 2 star review unfortunately doesn’t help foster that community. Could I ask that you reconsider the rating?

Real 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!
