Lyrcs: Write Lyrics Poetry Rap4.0.12 - App Store

Lyrcs is the single tool that empowers you to do what you do best, tell stories through music. Made for songwriters, by songwriters, on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

SYLLABLE COUNTING
Ever needed a line in verse 2 to match the syllable count in verse 1? Lyrcs counts the syllables on every line as you type, so you never count on your fingers again.

RHYME HIGHLIGHTING
Stop tracking your rhymes in your head. Lyrcs colors each rhyme the moment you type it, including internal rhymes, so you can see your whole rhyme scheme at a glance.

RHYMING DICTIONARY
No more opening a browser to hunt for the perfect rhyme. Lyrcs has a rhyming dictionary built in, and it works offline, so results appear instantly.

REAL-TIME RHYMES
As you type, rhymes appear for the word at your cursor, or for anything you select.

NEAR RHYMES
Hear two words as rhyming even when they technically do not? Teach Lyrcs your near rhymes and it highlights them together everywhere.

ANNOTATIONS
Mark sections, add chords, jot ideas, and leave comments, all without affecting your syllable counts or rhyme colors.

NOTES
Keep alternate lines, ideas, and anything else in a note attached to each song.

YOUR WORDS, ALWAYS YOURS
Every song is a plain text file that syncs across your devices with iCloud and opens in any other app. Your lyrics are never trapped in a format you cannot leave.
