Lyrist vs Sicnote

MADE BY AN ARTIST FOR ARTISTS I write to type beats often. YouTube comments aren't built for songwriting: no rhyme tools, no way to save your work, no way to import your own. Lyrist is the playground your lyrics deserve. WHAT ARTISTS ARE SAYING "Finally an app that lets you write lyrics with the beat on the same screen!! Also has a nice rhyme lookup built in. Makes writing a new song way easier, don't need to use Notes anymore." - AgarPlayer76 "I've clocked in probably over 100 songs on this app. Personally I'd recommend." - Circle dot "Yo this app has the missing key with that youtube search. I don't normally leave comments but I had to for this one." - pokemonmaster SEARCH MUSIC ON YOUTUBE & SOUNDCLOUD Look for inspiration and find instrumentals to write your own lyrics to.

sicnote is the lyric-writing notebook built for real songwriters — phonetic rhymes as you type, per-line voice recordings, and an AI co-writer that runs free and on-device and actually knows what your song is about. REAL RHYMES. NOT SPELLING MATCHES. Most apps match spelling. sicnote matches sound. Powered by an on-device phonetic engine (124,000+ words), it knows "move" doesn't rhyme with "love." True sound-alike words appear instantly above your keyboard as you write — English phonetic rhymes work with no Wi-Fi. WRITE IN YOUR DIALECT. 21 regional slang modes: Puerto Rico, Dominican, Mexico, Colombia, Atlanta, NYC, Miami, Houston, UK Drill, Jamaica, Toronto, and more. Each scene has its own vocabulary. Slang suggestions are ranked by how well they fit your song's theme, so you get words that actually belong in the verse. RECORD WHILE YOU WRITE. Every line has its own mic. Hum the melody before it disappears, lay down multiple takes, star the keeper, then play your whole song straight through line by line. AI THAT STAYS ON-THEME — POWERED BY APPLE INTELLIGENCE. The AI co-writer runs free and entirely on your device — no key, no account, no subscription. Set a one-sentence anchor — "a rainy drive after a sudden breakup" — and every suggestion stays true to it (or tap Suggest and let the AI write the anchor from your lyrics). It can critique your chorus, rewrite your hook, break down your song, and suggest the next line — and every suggested line is checked against the rhyme engine, so the options actually rhyme in your song's language. (The AI co-writer needs an Apple Intelligence iPhone — iPhone 15 Pro or newer. Everything else works on any iPhone.) FREEWRITE FIRST. STRUCTURE LATER. Just dump your ideas. Then tap "Suggest structure" and sicnote proposes which lines are verses and which are choruses. Accept, reject, rename — done. PERFORM MODE. Tap any word to annotate it: sing louder, hold-extend. Turn your lyric sheet into a teleprompter with built-in vocal markings. EXPORT ANYWHERE. Share individual songs or your full library — lyrics as clean Markdown (paste into Google Docs, Notion, or email to your co-writer), and your recordings as audio. Phonetic rhymes, syllable counts, slang, and rhyme-scheme color-coding run on-device. No account, no sign-in. Your lyrics, recordings, and AI co-writer stay on your phone. —— sicnote is for singer-songwriters, rappers, reggaetón and Latin music writers, freestylers, and anyone who captures ideas on their phone first and figures out the structure later.
