FAQ

1. Wrong Lyrics?

YouTube Music is not an official partner of Musixmatch so you can't get lyrics directly if using YouTube " videoId" parameter. So I need to use some "String Matcher" and "Duration" for search lyrics. So sometimes, some songs or videos get the wrong lyric

2. Why the name or brand is "SimpMusic"?

Simply, because I love this name. It's a combination of Simple and Music. But SimpMusic is not simple app, it's all you need for a music streaming app.
