Then find its lyrics, check their timing, and pick how they look. Nothing is uploaded.

MP3, M4A, WAV, FLAC, and other audio, or a video with sound.

How to make a lyric video

Open a song and select Find lyrics. If the song is in LRCLIB, a free lyrics database, its words come with a time for every line. If it isn't, paste the words, select Tap along, and press Space as each line starts. Each line shows on a timeline under the preview, where you can drag it earlier or later. Pick a look, such as karaoke or word by word, add a picture and a visualizer if you like, and save an MP4 for YouTube, Reels, or TikTok. There's no watermark, and the song is never uploaded.

    Choose a song
    Pick an MP3, M4A, WAV, or other song.

  2. Step 2

    Get the lyrics
    Find or paste them, and tap along to time them.

  3. Step 3

    Download the video
    Save an MP4 with the words on screen.

What to expect

Supported inputs
MP3, M4A, WAV, FLAC, and other songs this browser can read. The lyrics can come from the song's own tags, from LRCLIB, from an LRC file, or pasted in. Pictures can be PNG, JPEG, WebP, or HEIC.
What happens
Each line shows in large letters while it's sung, coming in the way its look says: fading, rising, filling with color as it's sung, or a word at a time. The video is drawn on your device and saved as an MP4 with the song, as long as the song.
Limits
Finding lyrics sends the song's title and artist to LRCLIB; the song itself stays on your device. Not every song is there, and another version of a song can be timed a little off, so every line can be moved at once from the lyrics menu. Karaoke and word-by-word looks spread the words evenly over each line, not by the singing. Saving draws every frame, so a long song takes a few minutes.

Questions

Yes, with no watermark, no sign-up, and no limit on length. It runs in your browser, so there's no server time for us to charge you for.

From the song file's own tags when it has them, or from LRCLIB, a free, open lyrics database, when you select Find lyrics. You can also paste them or open an LRC file.

Yes. Paste your lyrics, select Tap along, and press Space as each line starts. Then drag any line on the timeline to fix it. Download the LRC file too, to use the same timing again later.

For your own songs, yes. Someone else's song and its lyrics belong to their owners, so check what the platform allows before you post.
