in some cases lrc files will have this method of naming
file-name..lrc
the app will add an extra dot before file extension which prevent detecting lrc in music players

Describe the bug
App throws error, when trying to find a lyrics for song. But sometimes it randomly finds lyrics.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Just search for any song in "Browse" label. Or select any song from library.

Expected behavior
App should find the lyrics.

This could significantly improve the performance, specially in low-end devices.

Describe the bug
If we go into selection mode and use the 'select all' button when any of the two filters are turned on ('Only show songs without lyrics' or 'Ignore Folders') the app selects every audio file it can recognise in the phone storage; even the ones inside the ignored folders.

Manually adding a .nomedia file to these ignored folders and reopening the app did decrease the total file count.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open the app and select one song by long pressing it to go into selection mode. On the top right corner click the select all button (the one without the cross). Check the total number of songs selected.
2. Cancel the selection and turn on any of the two filters.
3. Repeat step 1 with the filter turned on.
4. Recheck total number of songs selected. The number of songs selected will remain unchanged.

Expected behavior
When using this option it is expected that only the songs being shown on the screen will be selected.

Describe the bug
App cant find lyrics

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Search for any song's lyrics

Expected behavior
Finds lyrics

Smartphone (please complete the following information):
Any

Additional context
Stopped working a couple of days ago

A cool thing to have is the ability to download the lyric from a link because the search doesn't always work

Most of the time Spotify doesn't have lyrics or it can't be fetched probably because of the unreliable API. So a feature where the app automatically searches with the other Lyrics providers when the previous one fails would be very useful because switching back and forth three times for a single song/track is a bit frustrating. 👍

The Netease lyrics source doesn't work at all and only throws errors (similar behavior currently also in LRCLib).

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. In "About" tab, select "Netease" source
2. Try to search for any lyrics in "Browse" tab
3. The error pop-ups on the screen

The program was supposed to fetch the desired lyrics, but it had thrown an error instead.

Screenshots:

Smartphone:

• Device: Huawei P20
• OS: EMUI 12 (Android 10)

This issue is very important because Spotify has currently limited its Lyrics to premium users only and the app won't work without a working source of lyrics.

Describe the bug
When using the Batch Download feature, it downloads about 4 songs and then tells me it's reached Spotify's rate limit and stops. I don't see any way to adjust the speed at which it downloads the songs to avoid hitting the rate limit or let it retry.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open the app, which shows you the home page.
2. Click on 'Batch download lyrics'.
3. Let it download for about 4 songs.
4. See 'Spotify rate limit reached. Please try again later'.

Expected behavior
My lyrics get downloaded, and are retried if they hit the rate limit and back off the speed until there are no issues

Additional context
My library has 6k songs. This happened the very first time I tried downloading any lyrics.

I've been using your GitHub app, SongSync (https://github.com/Lambada10/SongSync), and I'm quite impressed with its features for managing music libraries and downloading lyrics.

I'd like to suggest the possibility of creating a Windows version of SongSync. Currently available for Android, the app's features could be really beneficial for Windows users as well. Many people use Windows for their music collections and having a dedicated app like SongSync would be great.

Expanding SongSync to Windows could have some key advantages:

Broader User Base: You'd tap into a new audience of Windows users looking for music management and lyric download solutions.

Consistency: Offering a consistent experience across different platforms can contribute to user loyalty.

Leveraging GitHub: Since the app is already on GitHub, development for the Windows version could happen right there, making it easier to collaborate and maintain.

Consider looking into the technical feasibility of adapting the app to run on Windows. If feasible, this could be a valuable addition to your project.

Thank you for considering this suggestion.

Upload this app to the F-Droid repo. Maybe IzzyOnDroid as well.

Describe the bug
In previous version 2.2.0, when there was no Internet connection (no mobile data or wifi), the message "no internet connection" was displayed when the app was launched. However in version 3.0.0, the app crashes in this case.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Be sure that the phone is offline.
2. Try to launch the app.

Expected behavior
The "no internet connection" message present in 2.2.0 should be displayed in 3.0.0 instead of a crash occurring.

Gramophone is also an app from the guys in this team

I have all my songs on external storage but I can't write to it.

Description:
The app crashes if you toogle "Show only songs without lyrics" and ignore a folder (i don't know if is any folder or just WhatsApp Audio). This forces the user to unistall the program because it crashes immediately on use (it shows for a split second the audio files from the ignored folder).

Reproduce (the name of the feature may be a little different because im using in portuguese):
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to Filters;
2. Toggle "Show only songs without lyrics;
3. Go to "Ignore folders"
4. Select WhatsApp Audio, or any other folder that contains an audio file.

Expected behavior
That both filters work together.

Screenshots
Crashes immediately so no screenshots :(

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Samsung Samsung Galaxy A03s
• OS: Android 13
• App version v3.0.1

Additional context
I only have a few folders with audio files. One dedicated to music (but each album is in one dedicated folder) and the WhatsApp one.
All permission that the app asked were given.
Sorry any typo/grammar, english is not my first language.

I really appreciate an app that downloads the lyrics of songs on our device.

So I just went through the scan and all of my music except 2 songs were successful. I checked and couldn't find the 2 successful ones too.

Is there a way to pick where the lyrics are taken from? I don't see any settings for this.

Looking forward to a working version of this where I can save all my music lyrics offline.

Thanks

Kinda, I have a lot of audio files, most aren't music .

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be good to have a way to filter by blaclisting or whitelisting directories.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Spotify is greedy and made lyrics a premium only feature

Describe the solution you'd like
Switch the API to MusixMatch or Genius

It would be so helpful if you add an option to simply copy the lyrics which I found either in home with am existing song or a lyrics which it searched through browse tab

Describe the bug
When choosing to save the lrc file, the app crashes

My scanner just got "revamped" last week, and immediately found something to say about (not just) your app:

! repo/pl.lambada.songsync_301.apk declares risky permission(s): android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

Could you please clarify what those permissions are needed for? Especially the latter, as that's usually reserved for applications like e.g. file managers. Thanks in advance!

This issue not for SongSync, but to suggest you an app to make because

• some songs in Spotify don't have synced lyrics(LRC)
• and currently SpotifyLyricsAPI broken anyway

Would you consider making a simple app that generates LRC out of lyrics plaintext? Something similar to https://github.com/DBKarman/lyricsync but as an app.

Here's how this works

• Enter lyrics
• Choose the song
• Now the song start playing
• Sync each lines as the singer sings
• An LRC generated in the end
• Pretty neat, isn't it?

Thanks

If you can't find lyrics by exact names the possibility to search by approximate names. That is, not "waste" but "Wast3", or not "gangnam style remix zyzy" but "gangnam style ^-^remix^-^ by ZyZy!!!!!". or just, not "come on", but "come on!"

it's useful when I have a lot of remixes, but different sources spell them differently, or their lyrics match the original.

I'm using Android 13 Custom ROM
Installed the app but it will crash immediately after i run it

Additional context
I like some of the album art fetched while searching for lyrics as they're Track/Title specific rather than being the same as of the Album. Simply saving them right beside the audio file would be a good feature.

@Lambada10 I was wondering if its possible for you to add a feature that allows you to adjust the speed in which a lyric sync with songs, like exponentially increasing or decreasing the delay between each line of a lyric.
I think this would be really useful in applying synced lyrics to slowed and sped up versions of different song, because alot songs sounds better woth their sped or slowed counterparts
An adjusting slider/meter would be preferred or a preset or however you do it, I don't mind. I just think it would be a pretty nice feature to implement

I am noob in this project someone can please help-me.

1. Please enable support for saving lyrics file into into external storage, as I (and I'm sure many others as well) have their music files stored in SD card. (My phone is android 9)

2. Add options to embedd lyrics directly into the music file in addition to the ".lrc" option. In that way, one wouldn't have to copy the browsed lyrics to go and manually embed in the music.

3. Add option to actually browse and select a particular local folder in which the songs are. Having to go through "ignore" folders could be an headache especially when you have tons of subfolder (including those under internal storage and external storage) where musics are located and grouped as either different playlists, albums etc

4. Black/Dark theme appearance option pleaseeeee! :)

Great Job dev, keep it up.
An app like yours is what I've been looking for for a while now to complement my musicolet app. I'm sure many musicolet users also share my sentiments. Your app could be the next big thing in the "SYNCED" offline lyrics niche just as musicolet has been for the offline music niche.

Describe the bug
Spotify changed something in their API which results in no lyric found by the app.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Because most of the times when you open the app you want to select the newest songs anyway. It's just extra step to search for them one by one.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a option to sort songs by "last added" so new tracks show up on the top

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently the app loads every single song at once which may work if you only have a few a songs but it's a nightmare if you have 4000+ song files like I have. Whenever I try to use the search feature the app starts to slow down or crash trying to look through every filename to make the query. I also can't scroll down alphabetically since it takes way too long and each time I leave the app it goes back to the top. Ignoring folders does help a bit, but even that's a bit of pain with having to constantly scroll or to try and remember which albums have songs with lyrics or not

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if it was cataloged a bit more orderly, like being able to select by artist, album, or folder would be nice instead of having to constantly load every single song at once. It would basically have the same layout as a music explorer would. Clicking on and specific album would only show songs from that album that you can than filter by songs that already have lyric files and select the ones to bulk download.

Ideally it would be nice if it does show all songs that there's a side bar to quickly jump to a specific letter of the alphabet

Describe alternatives you've considered
Another possibility is to just have a file explorer option. Basically navigate to the folder you want to look in and then scan recursively. Once your down you can quick go back go the explorer and pick a new folder, etc.

Additional context
I'm using Android 11 btw

Here's some screenshots from an app called AutomaTag to get idea of what I'm talking about

When app is in splitscreen mode with another app on the left/right, or is in pop-up (floating on top) mode, and you resize it, it fails to find the rest of the lyrics in batch download mode, immediately.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Put app in splitscreen or pop-up mode via "recents" navbar button.
2. Start batch download of lyrics.
3. Change aspect ratio of app.
4. Lyric downloading fails.

The expected behavior is that nothing should happen, as I'm not closing the app.

No

Describe the solution you'd like
Let's say the song is in Japanese so when I look for lyrics it would be awesome if there is an option to download for example the English lyrics (synced preferably)

Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative would be me manually editing the lyrics and swapping it with the translated lyrics

Additional context
I believe apps like Musixmatch already offers multiple languages for the lyrics (if available)
