Lyrics should stay with the moment. Beyond Chorus keeps live time-synced lyrics with music already playing. Follow on your phone, in your car, or on supported smart glasses. AT A CONCERT Find the show near you and open its setlist. Tap the song when it starts and follow every line in time. When a venue uses LiveSync, the production team can cue the lyrics for the whole audience. IN THE CAR Choose Apple CarPlay or a car browser in Drive setup. On iOS 26, a lyric Live Activity can appear on CarPlay Dashboard, your iPhone Lock Screen, and Dynamic Island on supported iPhones. For Tesla and other cars with a browser, open car-lyric.com and pair it with your phone. The browser display follows music already playing. Beyond Chorus Pro also offers phoneless Tesla lyrics after account setup on a compatible vehicle. ON SMART GLASSES Keep your eyes on the stage while the current line stays in view. Beyond Chorus works with compatible XREAL and Rokid displays, Even Realities G2, and Apple Vision Pro. Availability depends on your phone and glasses model. MUSIC ACCESSIBILITY Live vocals can be hard to follow in a loud room. Beyond Chorus gives deaf and hard-of-hearing concertgoers a clear, high-contrast view of each line on their phone or glasses. FREE TO SING ALONG Unlimited lyrics on your phone, concert mode, LiveSync audience mode, the phone-paired car browser, and concert recaps with a watermark are free. Beyond Chorus Pro adds streaming from your phone to compatible glasses, USB-C glasses projection, phoneless Tesla lyrics, translations in 10 languages, playlist exports, concert recaps without a watermark, and separate profiles for different glasses. Beyond Chorus was formerly known as Lyrical. It is the same app, account, and subscription under a more distinctive name.

Lyrify brings real-time, synced lyrics to the places you actually use your iPhone: your CarPlay display, Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, and home screen widgets. Because Lyrify pulls from multiple lyric sources at once, you rarely see a "no lyrics available" screen. If one catalog does not have your song, Lyrify falls back to the next automatically. Whether you are driving, at your desk, working out, or singing along at home, the words are always on screen -- perfectly timed to the music, never a beat behind.

The result: far fewer "no lyrics available" moments, especially for international, indie, and newly released songs. WORKS WITH SPOTIFY AND APPLE MUSIC Just play music the way you already do.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dynamic Lyrics Widget holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dynamic Lyrics Widget has 22 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Beyond Chorus's written reviews are positive against 0% of Dynamic Lyrics Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Beyond Chorus ships an update weekly, Dynamic Lyrics Widget monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
