Designed by songwriters for songwriters
FEATURES
- Rhymes as you type: Highlight perfect, near, and slant rhymes in 12+ color-coded groups. It matches what sounds right, not just word endings, and everything runs locally on your device.
- Write together, live: Share a link and your co-writer can jump in within seconds, with no sign-up. See each line update as they type and leave comments on the exact lyrics.
- Syllable counts inline: Per-line syllable counts appear right beside your lyrics. When a line matches your target, the counts highlight so your meter stays consistent without leaving the page.
- Chords when you want them: Tap a line, type a chord, and it anchors to that word as you edit. Prefer lyric-only writing? You can ignore chords completely.
- Guitar tabs for riffs and melody: Add your own guitar tabs to keep track of what you play alongside your lyrics.
- Structure that organizes itself: Type [Verse], [Chorus], or [Bridge] and your song automatically arranges into a clean structure.
- Quick ideas: Capture a lyric spark in seconds and return later to shape it into a full section.
- Writing prompts: Break through the blank page with built-in prompts designed to start momentum fast.
- Own your work: Export every song whenever you want, so you can move on without losing your files.
REAL-TIME COLLABORATION
The only songwriting app with real-time collaboration. Send a link, your co-writer taps it, and they're in the song! No account creation required. Every edit lands live as you both type. You can even make threaded comments to discuss the song. Your lyrics are shared securely with end-to-end encryption and one tap can revoke access.
A RHYME DICTIONARY BUILT FOR REAL SONGWRITERS
Get ranked rhyme suggestions based on how real artists write. Our rhyme dictionary is built from roughly 70 years of Billboard hits and the 10,000 most-streamed songs, so suggestions reflect real life musical rhyme patterns, not alphabetical lists.
BUILT FOR REAL WRITERS
- Fast, no-lag editor: A smooth, native iPhone and iPad experience with a calm typewriter feel.
- Unlimited songs: Even free users have no limits on the number of songs they can write
- iCloud sync: Start a verse on your phone and finish it on your iPad.
- One-tap export: Export as PDF with chords laid out above your lyrics, or export plain text. Your songs, your files.
- Private by design: Your lyrics live on your device and sync through your own iCloud account. We do not store your words on our servers, and analysis runs locally. We never track what you write.

Ratings & Reviews

Hello Songwriters! Songwriter Studio is now ready for iPhone Duo, improved for iOS 27.
Your own personal songbook
We like giving you more ways to explore and organise your songs. On iPhone Duo and iPad you can now use the app like a songbook, with your lyrics on one page and your notes on the other. Rhymes, the chord sheet, stats and writing prompts can also open on that second page too.
At home on iOS 27
Your songs now show up in the system search, so you can find one by its title or by a line you remember. On iOS 27 the app now works better with Siri as well
