Coverstar
Can I change the key of a song in Coverstar?
Yes, Coverstar has a pitch control feature that lets you raise or lower the key of a backing track. This is great for making a song fit your vocal range, and the sound quality remains natural without any robotic artifacts.
Does Coverstar have video filters or effects?
Yes, it includes several video filters and effects, such as the popular 'Neon Glow' effect that can make dimly lit recordings look intentional. They're surprisingly decent for a free app and can enhance the overall look of your video.
What should I do if I accidentally lose my recording?
Coverstar doesn't auto-save drafts, so you need to manually tap the small 'save draft' button before swiping away. If you lose a take, check the drafts folder—if you didn't save, unfortunately it's gone, so always save immediately after a good take.
Why can't I find a specific older song in Coverstar's library?
Coverstar's song library focuses heavily on current top 40 hits, so older rock or niche songs are often missing. If the track isn't available, you may need to search for a different version or consider using a custom backing track if the app supports it.
How does Coverstar compare to Smule for casual singing?
Coverstar is simpler and less cluttered than Smule, making it easier to just record and export a video quickly. However, Smule has a much larger song library and more robust social features, while Coverstar focuses on basic recording with decent pitch control and filters.
