This is the best karaoke app I've found so far, it's also cool that the subscription is free for almost two weeks (especially with the quarantine thing going on). On the negative note, I have a poor internet connection at home and when I tried to Chromecast (on which other app work fine) the app to the TV, the song was loading in bits making it impossible to sing. I wish the songs could download temporarily instead of buffing.
Machine is great ... This review is for the app.... As others have said, 'with lyrics' videos can be found on YouTube and elsewhere. I did look into their catalog, cuz I would prefer instrumentals versions, but their selection is SPARSE. luckily 'instrumental' versions can be found on music streaming apps such as Spotify. And of course lyrics aren't hard to Google. But no bouncing ball...
Got the device, didnt even bother with the 5 free songs and got the weekly 10$ subscription so the kids could pick whatever they wanted (WHICH WAS A VERY LIMITED SELECTION, but did have some good and recent choices) and couldnt even play a single song (by bluetooth on multiple devices) without constant lag/refresh (on a 200Mbps connection) making it completely pointless. We wound up using cd's and youtube for music selection. A refund of the subscription cost would be appreciated, thank you!
installed app, could do anything, so i had to go to website to purchase songs. app doesn't sync up with website, making app completely useless. registered on both with same Facebook account but it treated then like 2 separate accounts. plus when using the Bluetooth you can not get lyrics on the screen and can't connect phone to usb to display lyrics either. almost a good product but it missed the mark on what users want. don't buy. returning it.
It is exactly what I was looking karaoke app for a friend's party and spending time together but not for singing competition or showing off. It cast to TV, have lead singer that you can switch on/off, and decent catalogue of songs. As a thought it would be great if there was an option to adjust volume for lead singer.
Complete waste of time if you plan on using with a Singing Machine Karaoke System because the machine is so cheaply made you wont be able to use it more than once. Plus the price is outrageous $14.99 a month for a very small amount of music and song choices. Save your self the hassle and just look up Karaoke Music on YouTube for free and choose any song you want? You're welcome! Thank you for reading!
The "subscription" price is insane. I understand there are royalties involved, but the machines etc are designed for kids. Not real karaoke. The selection available is very...vanilla and cookie cutter. The 5 "free" songs they have to offer are not great. 30 second samples without a subscription for songs you actually wat. Quite disappointing. If it was more affordable I'd get it for the kids, but not at the price it is.
Bought the karaoke machine to have something to do since being stuck at home. The welcome guide says to download this app. 5 free songs is all you get or you can play 14 something a month. That is really horrible. U can't go out or do anything blames not as busy and I only get 5 free songs to go with the machine I bought. Very disappointed. The problem is the price. I could get all the HBO channels for less a month. It's crazy.
I do like the app but for the price I was really expecting to find almost any song I wanted. Thats just not the case. For the song selection 4.99 a month would be about right. I can understand not have some of the songs that I wanted but there were a few that would be classic karaoke song that were not on here.
Beyond disappointed..... We bought the Groove mini and it's just a glorified boom box! You can Bluetooth music but not lyrics and you can use an aux cord but you still won't get lyrics. What's the point? I can use a karaoke app on my phone and Bluetooth speaker without a cheap feeling, disco light box. Don't waste your money! Spend a little extra and get a real karaoke machine.
very disappointed.Me and my niece were testing out the app for the first time and she wanted to try a song from frozen. i clicked on the song and it was a 30 sec 'sample'.. i tried multiple songs to see if any were free.YOU HAVE TO PAY MONEY, i wouldn't be mad if it were a reasonable price but no .. its very expensive. Welp .. i guess me and my niece will improvise. The machine itself is very cool. but they definitely need to change the app. Very many people aren't so happy.
Dont bother. This app uses 30 sec clips from a restricted song list. The machine is a (actually very good) bluetooth amplifier. You'd do better to find the thousands of full length karaoke songs with lyrics on YouTube, all for free. The full version of this app will cost nearly £15 per month. It's a complete rip off. In my view, Stingray should not be in business. The number of poor reviews should teach them that they are profiteering and that they need to review their business model.
I bought the machine thinking it could be used right out of the box. You have to have special dvd's or buy their app, for $14.99 a month, which of course auto renews. I decided the app wasn't worth it within a few hours. The songs are not by the original artist so i found it difficult to sing to them. They don't sound the same. Now Im wondering if I cancel to prevent the auto renew, do I lose the rest of the month?
perfect review said "You know why". lol, but its true. i remember having an Aiwa stereo system in the 90s and it did a better job with karaoke than this piece of plastic. i could put in ANY music CD and it would mute out most of the vocals, whereas this thing doesn't...at all - VERY DISAPPOINTING. plus no words show up on a tv unless yoy use a CDG? HA. If i Bluetooth a phone and use this app the words should show up but they dont. The songs are overpriced and their excuse is a joke. RETURN ASAP!!
Horrible. Purchased a small introductory karaoke machine for small children! Not 1 age appropriate song without paying additional fees! only 4 full length songs total. All other songs under "free" category are 10 sec partials. Doesn't play over system it is designed for and recommended to use. Worst download EVER!
I'm supposed to have access to songs yet I can't find them it wants me to buy them. Adding my reply: Yes I did register for the free songs. I ended up cancelling before it could charge me again because I couldn't figure it out.
Its a quality machine for the price. We are really getting to enjoy it more, now that we are staying home to help flatten the curve. Never a dull moment, it helps us forget about our situation and we can even bluetooth to our tv or any device with bluetooth and sing along with the radio or youtube, its lots of fun and good times. Thank you for allowing us this time to enjoy singing along to more songs.
Was disconnected, now I can't reconnect, why?
I downloaded app and was supposed to get 90 days free. We purchased karaoke machine for our daughter and everything came with it. I've been charged 2 times. $6.99 WEEKLY which is total rip off anyway! Never agreed to be charged twice when it was supposed to be free! Emailed about initial charge which was supposed to be refunded! Nope .. no refund but charged again!
Small selection of songs and out of sync lyrics. We noticed it was especially atrocious when we friend on the lead vocals and they were out of sync with he lyrics as well. Would be cheaper to use official lyric videos on a streaming site and would be a better overall experience on top of that.
Honestly, this app is really amazing! I also really love my singing mashine very much!! I tried out the mobile app and let me just say, it's not that bad for a karaoke app! I you guys put all of my favorite songs and artists on the app! I can just sing my heart out and enjoy!!🖤🖤🖤 great app! Keep up the incredible work!! Love Anna-
Impossible to unsubscribe!! I follow prompts to manage account and it sends me directly to the google play uninstall screen! It DOES NOT give me an option anywhere to unsubscribe. It doesn't even show up under my google accounts subscriptions. I've opened a claim through paypal as well. I am not happy at all about this and consider it theft!
Realistically. It is expensive for what it is. This would be an amazing thing if you could access it for 24-hr bursts for a small fee. It would open up the possibilities of this app. Would gladly rate higher if that were an option.
You don't need this app to have songs with lyrics play through your karaoke machine. Just pair your device up with your machine through Bluetooth and Google search the song title and be sure to add "with lyrics". It's free and almost every song is on there. I already spent enough money on this karaoke machine, I don't need to be nickel and dimed to pay for the app, too.
