Karaoke has become increasingly popular over the last decade, and rightly so. There aren’t many activities that promise as much fun as karaoke nights. And with karaoke apps for Apple TV, you can have all the fun with friends and families right at your home on the big screen.
However, your experience heavily depends on the app you are using. In this article, we will list the best apps that guarantee to make your party fun.
Top 7 karaoke apps for your Apple TV
1. Smule – Your music studio
Smule is by far the most popular and well-made Karaoke app out there. It constantly updates its library to give you the latest songs and albums by some of the industry’s biggest singers.
Besides giving the lyrics like a regular Karaoke app, Smule also informs you about the pitch and pauses you must take for the perfect song. Smule is also one of the best ways to improve your singing while having fun, making it special!
However, Smule has a terrible customer support team, and it is basically impossible to get a complaint through. Apart from that, it is an incredibly heavy app and fills up your cache and storage in minutes!
With recent updates, Smule has also become incredibly subscription-hungry and has put most of its features under a paid bracket, leaving casual users little to do in the app.
Pros
- Helps improve your singing
- Huge song library
- Intuitive user interface
Cons
- Poor customer support
- Few free features
- Recordings may have noise
Price: Free (In-app purchases start at $2.99)
2. Misuero Karaoke Latino: Best for Latin Music
Misuero Karaoke Latino is a Karaoke app specifically designed for Latin music. This results in the app having a small and limited song library consisting of about a few thousand songs. The app’s music genres include Balada, Regional Mexicana, Pop, Bachata, Merengue, Salsa, Duranguense and many more.
Adding to the goodness, the Misuero Karaoke Latino team constantly works on expanding their library and bringing the latest Latin songs to the app, so it is highly likely that your favorite song is there on the app!
Misuero Karaoke Latino is not the best at compatibility, however. Many users have reported that the app cannot connect well with external speakers and devices and causes tons of lag which ruins the experience.
I love how the app is regularly updated with bug fixes and new features, but it’s not for everyone due to language limitations!
Pros
- Focused on Latin music
- Regularly updated
Cons
- Limited library
- Weakly designed user interface
- Offers fewer features
Price: Free for first 200 songs (Subscription starts from $0.99)
3. Karaoke on Demand
Karaoke on Demand is one of the best apps on this list. Although the selection of songs is quite limited, this app has been executed well.
A big advantage of this app is that it can sync between devices! You can use it on your Apple TV, iPhone, and iPad. This allows you to enjoy Karaoke at home, on the road, or at the park!
Pros
- Easy to use
- Best user interface
Cons
- A small selection of songs
It has good animations and design language making it more immersive and fun. The app focuses more on Pop, Rock, Country, Blues, R&B, etc., and brings you everything from classic tunes to the latest music.
Price: Free (In-app purchases start at $4.99)
4. KaraFun – Tailored to bring smiles
With a constantly evolving song collection, KaraFun is a karaoke app designed specifically for your Apple TV. This amazing app allows you to jam on the latest and trendy songs. The app is easy to use, so you can find your favorite song and start singing immediately.
You can even keep the party going even at places where the internet is scarce, as the app allows you to sync your favorite songs offline. That’s not all! The karaoke app for your Apple TV also seamlessly works with AirPlay and external screens, so you can connect your devices to your TV and transform it into an incredible karaoke machine.
One of the most impressive features of the app is its ability to control the lead and background vocals on any track. You have the freedom to adjust the volume of the lead or background vocals, allowing you to sing along with the original artist or personalize the backing vocals according to your preference.
Furthermore, KaraFun lets you adjust the key and tempo of the songs, ensuring a perfect match with your voice. This empowering feature allows you to truly make the songs your own. Lastly, the app offers both free and premium access options, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

6. YouTube: Most popular
If you live in this day and age, you must have heard plenty about Google’s streaming platform, YouTube. While there are many YouTube alternatives, you may not know that the platform is also one of the best places for Karaoke.
It is flooded with countless Karaoke videos you can enjoy! You will find almost every song here has singing tutorials, and it is free to use. Pretty nifty, right? Besides, it is constantly updated with more videos.
YouTube also has one of the best search engines to find what you want within seconds. Sounds too good to be true, right?
The only downside of this app is that you will have to watch one or maybe even two ads before a video. And since no videos are regulated, you may not always find high-quality karaoke songs!
Pros

- All genres supported
- Completely free of cost
Cons
- Contains ads
- Unregulated videos
7. AirPlay: Best for Mac or iPhone users
AirPlay is Apple’s proprietary feature available on all Apple devices. The feature allows you to broadcast any media from your iPhone or Mac to your Apple TV.
This opens up a whole new world of possibilities since it gives you access to every single Karaoke app on the iPhone and Mac App Store, on your Apple TV. If you want to know more about what apps you can use through this method, check out our article on the best karaoke apps for iPhone and iPad!
