Signing in
Lyric Genie signs in with Google or Apple. There is no password to remember, and signing in is what makes syncing work.
Showing the iOS appweb app
Lyric Genie has two ways in: Continue with Google and Continue with Apple. That is the whole list.
There is no email and password option, and no separate account to create. You pick one of the two and you are in.
One account, both apps#
The web app uses the same two buttons, and the same accounts, as the iOS app. Sign in with the Google or Apple account you use on your iPhone and you see the same songs, recordings, concepts and projects. Continue with Google and Continue with Apple each open a small sign-in window, so allow pop-ups for the site if nothing appears.
Signing in to the web app at app.lyricgenie.app with the same Google or Apple account shows you the same library there.
Why it matters#
Signing in is what makes your work sync. Your songs, recordings, concepts and projects live with your account, so they appear on any device you sign in on, and they survive reinstalling the app.
If you are not signed in, you are not syncing. That is the single sentence worth remembering.
Use the same one every time#
Google and Apple are separate accounts as far as Lyric Genie is concerned. If you signed in with Google the first time and later tap Continue with Apple, you get a new, empty account rather than your songs.
If your library looks empty on a device you have used before, that is almost always the reason. Sign out and back in with the other one.
When it will not work#
Sign-in problems show a message saying what went wrong. The usual causes are:
- No network. Both methods have to reach their provider.
- The sheet was dismissed before it finished. Tapping outside the Google or Apple panel cancels it. On the web, closing the sign-in window or blocking pop-ups does the same.
Opened from Gmail, Instagram or another app? Those apps open links in a browser of their own, and Google and Apple sign-in cannot finish there. The sign-in page spots this and says so. Tap Open in Safari (Open in Chrome on Android), or Copy link and paste it into your usual browser.
If a message mentions the build being configured incorrectly, that is not something you can fix from your side. It is worth an email.
Signing out#
Sign Out is at the bottom of Settings, and on the web it is also in the avatar menu in the top bar. On iOS it asks before it does anything.
Signing out does not delete anything. Your work stays on your account and comes back when you sign in again. That is different from deleting your account, which does not.
