Designed by musicians for musicians, this app combines powerful ChordPro rendering with a sleek, distraction-free interface that ensures you never miss a beat or a lyric. THE ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE TOOL: LyricsFlow Pro’s Auto-Scroll engine acts as your personal teleprompter. Variable Speed Control: Set the perfect scroll speed for each individual song. The app remembers your settings for every track. Touch-to-Pause: Tap pause, manually scroll up and down or use the nudge buttons.

LyricsFlow Pro supports the industry-standard ChordPro format, making it compatible with thousands of songs available online. Smart Import: Automatically extracts Title, Artist, Lyrics and Chords from directives in .cho, .crd, .chopro, .chordpro, and .txt files. ChordPro Support: Full support for standard directives like {title:}, {artist:}, and {subtitle:}. Visual Chords: The app identifies chords e.g. [Am7] and displays them in a custom colour of your choice, distinct from the lyrics.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: LyricsFlow Pro at $3.99 against Quartet 3's $16.99. LyricsFlow Pro also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Quartet 3's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (18 vs 1). On ads, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Quartet 3 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Quartet 3 has 18 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Quartet 3's written reviews are positive against 100% of LyricsFlow Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Quartet 3 ships an update monthly, LyricsFlow Pro fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
