Open Lyra and, on the welcome screen, tap Use as guest under “Just want to explore?”. You can search, listen, save songs and create or import playlists straight away, with no email or password. If you create an account later, your library comes with you.

    Search for songs, albums, podcasts and radio, save what you like, create playlists or import them from other services, just as you would with an account.

Differences by device

iPhone and Android

Use as guest is on the welcome screen of both apps.

Web player

The web player at listen.lyramusic.app can also be used as a guest.

Good to know

  • As a guest, your library belongs to that app. Create an account if you want to find it on your other devices.
  • If you create an account later, the library you built as a guest carries over to it.

If something goes wrong

I can't see Use as guest
It's at the bottom of the welcome screen, under “Just want to explore?”. On small screens, scroll down a little.
