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.

App works great as an all in one data center for my band. The UI can be a little confusing at times, but becomes very easy to use with practice. UI is the ONLY reason for 4 stars and not 5. Support is top notch as well. Had an issue with the schedule calendar not working so I wrote a help ticket for them. I was able to get in touch with support very quickly and they not only took responsibility for the bug, but had the problem fixed and deployed for me in less than 2 weeks.

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.
