Ratings and reviews

I use this all the time, recommend it to every musician I meet. Had just a little trouble with a couple things, nothing too hairy and were easy enough to fix. Scrolling gets a bit confusing and I haven't figured out how to put the lyrics all on one page with every song yet, but the answers are our there. Since I started using it, I would be lost without it. I know a lot of songs, and having decent lead sheets right there is excellent. Best $6.95 I ever spent. Thanks!

The app functionality is very useful. Lately, it is had a problem synchronizing across devices. I reported it a number of times and get and automatic confirmation that my message has been received, but I have never heard back from customer service itself. The problem still exist. I would rate this app five stars if customer service would respond to my messages. Of course, they would have to fix the problem with synchronization too.

It's a fine storage tool, but lacks functionality to help with planning and finding. It doesn't search lyrics, which is a huge oversight in my eyes. Again, it's a nice library, but using it to decide what songs to plan, etc, it lacks. Would love to see it add more robust tagging system and search so I can easily filter songs by subject, theme, lyrics, etc.
