Review by:
4.0/5

There’s probably a lyric that grabbed your attention once, but perhaps you couldn’t really make it out fully. And knowing that, you’re kind of unsure about the whole passage in a song — or the entirety of the track, even.

Lyrics are important because they are there to give a song more meaning, to deepen the bond between the singer and the listener. It thus makes sense why someone would want to know the lyrics of a song — and iLyrics provides that functionality for iTunes.

iLyrics keeps it very simple. Aside from displaying the actual lyrics of the song you’re listening to on iTunes, there is no user interface. This is an app that simply runs in the background and, whilst a song on iTunes is being played, fetches the lyrics and displays them just above your taskbar.

The lyrics are presented on a transparent black background rectangle that doesn’t occupy much screen real estate. The text is white and it stays that way — its color, font, and font size are unchangeable.

iLyrics, per the name, works with iTunes. It is made for iTunes, given how it only functions with songs from that source. iTunes does feature lyrics to some songs, but they are not as convenient nor as nicely displayed to access and observe.

Accessing the lyrics of a song on iTunes means minimizing the player, then clicking on the “Lyrics” tab. And even then, the lyrics are not displayed in real-time.

With iLyrics, that problem is now gone, as you only have to boot it up alongside iTunes. Lyrics will be automatically shown while something is playing without you having to do anything. And they’re in real-time.

iLyrics is very simple — it’s a song lyrics finder app that works only with iTunes, and nothing more. A Spotify integration would have been nice, but even so, it’s very convenient if you use the Apple service.
