500+ original songs across 10 genres. New guided courses available! Learn English vocabulary, phrasal verbs, and pronunciation through music. Learn English vocabulary, phrasal verbs, pronunciation, and speaking through 500+ songs created for English learners. Songlyo uses music and spaced repetition to help you build real English skills — not just memorise word lists. Every song highlights useful vocabulary, idioms, and everyday expressions in context. Tap any word to see its meaning, examples, translations, and difficulty level. Music makes English stick — research shows vocabulary learned through songs is retained 2x longer. EXPLORE 500+ ENGLISH SONGS Browse a growing library across pop, acoustic, folk, soul, R&B, and more. Songs are tagged by difficulty level so beginners and advanced learners can find the right material. New songs are added regularly. GUIDED COURSES Follow structured courses that take you through English step by step. Each course contains sequential lessons with songs, vocabulary targets, and quizzes to check your understanding before moving on. LEARN VOCABULARY IN CONTEXT Tap any highlighted word or phrase in the lyrics to see: • Clear definitions in simple English • Example sentences showing real usage • Translations in 10 languages • CEFR level (A1 to C2) and frequency rating • One-tap save to your flashcard deck Songlyo highlights phrasal verbs, idioms, collocations, and advanced vocabulary using the Oxford 5000 word list and CEFR standards. SPACED REPETITION FLASHCARDS Review saved vocabulary with a smart flashcard system based on the SM-2 algorithm — the same method used by top language apps. Rate each card, and the app schedules your next review at the optimal time. Words you struggle with appear more often, while familiar words appear less frequently.

On-device speech recognition scores your pronunciation word by word — no internet needed, fully private. Build speaking confidence and improve fluency through repeated practice.

Study any collection as a focused flashcard session. Build personalised study sets around topics, difficulty, or your own learning goals.
