Pair a Bluetooth speaker and your living room becomes a karaoke room. On the phone speaker, anti-feedback turns on automatically. ■ Karaoke videos Pick a song and the instrumental (MR) video plays right inside the app - no app switching - and the mic turns on automatically. ■ Pick a key that fits your voice Choose original, lower or higher key and SingOn finds an instrumental video in that key. Your choice is remembered. ■ Browse like a songbook Karaoke hits, ballads, 70s & 80s, 90s, sad songs, duets and more. Or search any song and check it with a 30-second preview. ■ Record yourself Record while you sing and listen back later. Recordings stay on your device and are never uploaded. ■ Favorites & history Save your go-to songs and find what you sang recently. Search for karaoke places nearby from Settings through your maps app. ■ No sign-up No account needed. Favorites, recordings and settings stay on this device. The app is free, with an occasional ad after a song. A one-time purchase in Settings removes ads. ■ Five languages Korean, English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese - song suggestions and categories follow your language.
