- (2024-01-21) Ethan Reddekopp: 90% of the time it shows lyrics from a completely different song. Sometimes it shows the correct artist, but it's almost always the wrong song. For example, today I was listening to Kingslayer by Bring Me The Horizon, and the first set of lyrics it showed was Roxanne by Police, then 3 other incorrect songs, and then it said "cannot find the lyrics for this song." You'd think since it's searching 75 sources by the title of the current song, it would display the correct lyrics 100% of the time, but what do I know. 🤷♂️

- (2023-06-14) le Crow: i'll give you a 2 because it needs to be better. the most annoying feature is the search bar being at the bottom. Many videos on YouTube are named incorrectly and so you have to manually look them up. but the search bar won't allow you to search until it has tried to find the video in ever single source you have enabled. This can get quite tiresome. Just move the search bar to the top and/ or add a secondary search bar that is not affected by the sources searching. That is my opinion. If not for that issue I would probably give a 4 star rating.

- (2022-08-11) Erin: Love the way it works but it is not auto detecting for Spotify Web Player. Also JUST SEARCHING isn't even working let alone auto detect... probably one star is more appropriate but I'm hoping it is user error. I read the entire guide provided and changed settings. Oh well... hope the creator can and will address this

- (2022-06-03) Sagar Soni: Exactly what I was looking for! I think automatically highlighting the current line of the song could work since extensions can inject a script and fect current timing from YT player. It would be like Musixmatch for Chrome

- (2022-02-14) GianZ73: Used to be great, but on MS Edge many setup options won't work. Only 6 lyrics sources are active and oftentimes deliver wrong or very limited results. Hope it will be fixed.
