Good app but missing many features from web version

Genius is a great organization and i really appreciate having a reliable place to go for song lyrics + all the other info you might want about a song.

However, the app lacks a ton of features from the web version. Most people who aren’t contributors might not care but I like to annotate songs and translate lyrics but it’s harder to do that from the app. You can’t even change your profile picture on the app or follow artists you like. For some reason that’s exclusive to the web version of the app.

I’m not complaining too much since genius is free but it would be nice if already existing features had a usable interface on the app.
