I really appreciate an app that downloads the lyrics of songs on our device.

So I just went through the scan and all of my music except 2 songs were successful. I checked and couldn't find the 2 successful ones too.

Is there a way to pick where the lyrics are taken from? I don't see any settings for this.

Looking forward to a working version of this where I can save all my music lyrics offline.

Thanks

@HonestAbe7 Everything works fine on my side.
Can you share more details? What does it show, for what music etc..

Here is a screenshot showing the scan in progress. Also, doing a manual search under "Browse" is successful. Thanks

Are you using Android 10 or below? And are your songs on external storage (SD card)? If so, we can't save to external storage on legacy devices and it counts as failed

@HonestAbe7 That explains why it doesn't save, i should probably save it to downloads instead

Actually, it did try to save it to the downloads section. Just was an empty directory.

@HonestAbe7 From browse tab? It should show you the info about cant save and a button to save to downloads instead, you saved it and it didn't save there?

I am talking about when it scans. Nothing I see in the "Browse" tab to specify where except the song name and artist name.

@HonestAbe7 Press on one song and see if it lets you save it to downloads

@HonestAbe7 Yeah my API key is rate limited right now because many users tried to use the app right now and Spotify doesn't like high traffic

@HonestAbe7 If you never downloaded lyrics for a specific song it's expected to be empty

Can you switch servers or where you get the song info? I know that FastLyrics on F-Droid fetches from Genius site. It just just saved for each song I play and saves it internally hidden to where you can't transfer if you switch devices.

@HonestAbe7 I use Spotify API to get a song link which is required to get lyrics of song using the other API
