Very Useful Tool - But has much more potential

I use MasterWriter all the time. It is 5 Stars for being a tool that has value, but I gave it 3 as it is fairly basic (although intuitive). It has so much more potential. I don't use a lot of the tools it has (phrasing etc), but it keeps everything in one place and organized. Before this, I had pieces of lyrics in every piece of media possible.The good:1. MasterWriter is a great place to centrally manage your songwriting lyrics.2. Versions - they allow you to track several versions of the same lyrics so you can keep the originals neatly organized and feel safe rewriting parts without fear of regretting a deletion.3. The rhyme feature is very deep, that has 4 tiers from direct rhymes to wider or slant rhymes that sound better for song flow.4. It is very easy to use and jump back and forth between projects/songs.5. New AI feature is nice. It is like having a partner in the room with you when you're stuck. Although, ChatGPT would do the same, but this is built in. Input is hit or miss, but sometimes they spawn other ideas.6. Ability to share/collaborate is cool.7. Price - very good value8. Intuitive on any of my device (phone, computers, ipad), so it is there whenever an idea strikes.Improvements:1. It would be ideal if they could provide typical song frameworks to build withing. [Intro], [Verse], [Chorus], etc. Just saves a few steps.2. It would be good to have a "sandbox" to write down any ideas, then be able to select then assign them to an existing song or launch a new one at any time. The ones you don't use, continue to live there.3. A copy lyric button that goes directly to clipboard would be nice, so when populating other platforms with lyrics, it's easier.4. Maybe have an area to attach music/chord sheets, so anyone collaborating gets the full picture.5. Maybe have a track capability so that you can hear the song to see how your lyrics fit.6. Recorder to give collaborators an idea of how you think it should sound.7. Would be nice if it also came in an app as opposed to logging in.
