Motif : Songwriting Assistant

Your musical ideas deserve better than Voice Memos.

Motif is the songwriter's idea-capture tool — built for the moment inspiration strikes. Record a melody in the car, jot down a lyric in bed, snap a photo of a chord chart at rehearsal. Every fragment lives in one place, organized and ready to become a song.

CAPTURE IN SECONDS
Tap the home screen widget or lock screen action and you're recording in under 2 seconds. Capture three types of fragments:
• Text — lyrics, song notes, rhyme schemes
• Audio — melodies, riffs, vocal ideas with real-time waveform
• Image — chord charts, setlists, handwritten lyrics
• Action Button quick capture (iPhone 15 Pro and later) — bind a single
press to start recording instantly
• Live Activity surfaces your recording on the Lock Screen and Dynamic
Island while you keep your phone in your pocket
• "Hey Siri, capture a song idea" works without per-user setup

ORGANIZE YOUR SONGS
Create song projects with genre and mood tags. Drag fragments into place, assign sections (Verse, Chorus, Bridge), and link related ideas across projects. Your creative inbox keeps unassigned fragments safe until they find a home.

SHARE YOUR WORK
• Polished 1080×1920 share images for audio fragments — waveform, key,
tempo, lyric snippet
• Typographic lyric posters — single-line quotes or full-verse layouts
• Vertical MP4 export with an animated waveform synced to your audio
• Light + dark PDF lyric sheets with melody notation alongside each
section

ON-DEVICE INTELLIGENCE
Motif listens to your recordings and tells you what you played:
• Automatic key and tempo detection on every audio fragment — free
• Melody transcription — converts hummed melodies to notation
• Rhyme suggestions — find the perfect word to complete a line

TURN FRAGMENTS INTO DEMOS
• Audio compilation export: stitch a project's audio fragments into a
single MP4 demo, ordered by section, with crossfades and an optional
metronome count-in
• Transcribe a hummed audio fragment into editable text, on-device
• Version history for every lyric fragment with one-tap revert
• Song timeline view: drag fragments onto section lanes and see what's
missing before you call the song done

EXPORT & SHARE
Generate formatted PDF lyric sheets grouped by song section, complete with key and tempo annotations. Share with bandmates, producers, or your own archive.

WORKS EVERYWHERE
iCloud sync keeps your ideas safe and available across all your devices. Never lose a song idea again.
