Music App. In iOS 5 doesn't show Lyrics

Hello everybody. Yesterday I updated my iPad 2 with iOS 5. Now in the Music App the Lyrics don't appear anymore. I'm very disappointed and angry about that. Can anybody please tell me if it is a bug or if this was made intentionally. I hope tat this is a bug because the iOS 5 manual for the iPad (Ipad userguide for ios5 - downloaded from ibooks) shows on page 218 the following: "Display a song’s lyrics

Display the album cover by tapping the thumbnail at the top of the screen. Lyrics appear if you’ve added them to the song using the song’s Info window in iTunes." If it is a bug, when will it be fixed? If it is no bug, then I want to go back to its 4.3.5. Can anybody tell me how that would work?


Best Regards

iPad 2, Other OS

Thanks Earl, for finding "Lyrics View". I looked for something like that before, but it is hard to find

apps in a store of 500.000


I thought Lyrics View was worth a try for just 79c (euro) and I do not regret it. At last I can see the

lyrics I added in iTunes, rather than the ones Soundhound (sometimes) gets from the internet.


To my surprise, Lyrics View is actually a full music player, which deals with playlists much better than

Musis app. It is not clunky at all, but it has one unpleasant feature, namely that the first two lines of the

lyrics are behind the semi-transarent control bar. I will contact the developer about that.


My recommendation: give it a try, at least it solves the isue discussed in this thread.

I agree: Lyrics View is great! It solves this problem with the non showing Lyrics. I am very pleased that some clever Head has solved the Problem :-) Thanks to the developer!


So guys, load Lyrics View and all your Lyrics will be shown within this app, it's great! The only sad thing is, that apple was not able to solve the Problem, but at least it is solved for me.

Hi,


Here is a better app for lyrics view on ipad 1,2,3 ios 5+.


"Free Music dowload" edited by BSOSoft http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/free-music-download-downloader/id454975562?mt=8


This free app is not only a music downloader. You can load your music from itunes and you will have the same interface as in the old ipod apple music app to read your music files, with lyrics in all ipad! All for free!


Regards.😎

This is really nice app! Works like a champ with songs and lyrics from iTunes. I particularly like the way you can change the size of the lyrics to suite your needs. Everyone should check it out at the iTunes Store. It's well worth the $5 price if a couple of things are fixed. Victor, I sent you some questions to your Pauser Pro Support address. What I think is missing is the ability to remove songs you put on your personal playlist and the ability to delete your personal playlist completely. Put those in and I will use it right away. Maybe I jut don't see it and you can tell me how to do it.
