This app is great! The no-auto bill trial is great to make sure you'll use it, but it's not much $ to subscribe anyway. You MUST set up your songs on PC though. I just do the Chords part, copying and pasting lyrics and chords together, click the [/C] button couple times to fix the brackets, and save. I'm glad this app exists. Wish the phone side of it was compatible with windows tablet too, but I understand the huge job that would be. for the guy that runs this.

Seemed promising as a way to do everything from my phone, but was really painful to try to set up, even as a tech head. I could not locate a MIDI Learn function for the app control, for example. Text was often cut off, the interface was not organized in a way that made sense to me, the Activity Log doesn't auto scroll so it just fills up and you can't see new events, ... just a thousand paper cuts killed my interest. I'm going to stick to running REAPER on a Microsoft Surface running Linux.

Been using this for 8 years. The app is extremely useful for the working musician. I am able to add lyrics, chord charts, mp3s and set lists for multiple bands. It supports import of photos, so I can take a photo of a bandmate's chart and display it within the app. The browser editor makes it easy to add and edit songs and setlists. Synchronization between devices is instantaneous and accurate. The developer is extremely attentive and responds to trouble tickets in a timely and personal manner.

What’s new
○ Fixed a problem that prevented changes to the MIDI input port and channel from taking effect until the MIDI engine was restarted.
○ Updated the MIDI Learn function to update the existing control change row with the new value instead of adding new control change rows if you send the same control change with multiple values.
○ Restored the behavior on Android 16 of the back button closing the app when clicked from the first screen of the app.
