Perfect Guitar Song Book App Reviews

I am rating this app five stars for one feature, the ability to turn the page with a tap of the foot. I have found it impossible to get scrolling in other apps to accomplish what I need to do. Getting all of my songs to fit on one page just cant be done in a font I can read on an ipad and add on foot switches that work in other apps are expensive and just one more piece of gear to keep track of. The only problem so far was my inability to read the help files an email to the developer was promptly answered and got me past my self induced roadblock. Free tech tip: If your song files are .txt format just rename them to .pro prior to file transfer in iTunes. Thanks for the solution to the page turn issue. I am using my iPad on a music stand and a gentle tap on the stand base does the trick! Please keep updating and adding features. I would like to be able to have more control of font / colors / background color Thanks again for a great app.

What a great alternative to carrying around binders full of chord charts. I just downloaded the iPad app yesterday and have entered a few songs, both manually and from the Internet. Its easy to use and has an attractive interface. I havent gotten around to using every feature yet, but this is a winner! If I could suggest one improvement to make it more convenient to use it would be that when entering the chord letter after the bracket symbol ( for example [E] ) if it would automatically put the first letter of the chord in as an upper case letter. Thanks for a very useful app.

Great but I can t import files from pc and I wish it would keep its functionality ( shack2scroll) when displaying songs in its original format like PDF or word doc

Awesome app. Incredible customer support with instant answers. They even added a feature based on my question and request. Its so easy to import lyrics to playlist from Internet...fast! Sweet! Thank You!

Other apps have tabs but none have the ability to change the tabs yourself. There have been so many times when I find a tab online but disagree with one or two chords. Now I can change the tab so its perfect. Importing tabs from websites is super easy and editing them can be as painless or involved as you want. Im a perfectionist so I love that I can go into it and define the chorus of the song and the exact place where the chords match the lyrics. The other thing I love about it is that I can finally play along live with a tab. There have been so many times when I play and sing along with a tab and then the tab stops after the first chorus and says "repeat chord pattern for the rest of the song". Now I can make sure that I have the COMPLETE song and lyrics for when Im playing live. One of my favorite features is being able to tap the table where your iPad is sitting to scroll the song. I would love to see the ability to customize how many lines the app scrolls and the speed at which it scrolls, however. Sometimes it catches me off guard when it skips so quickly and can be a bit disorienting. Nevertheless, this app is the best alternative Ive found to having to stop playing to scroll. I do believe future updates may make this app perfect. For now I give it four stars because it is a great concept and if it were to implement some of the things I outlined above as well as suggestions from others I would give it five stars. This app is definitely worth the price. Especially considering that other apps charge a monthly fee for tabs.

Really a great chordpro app. Easy to navigate and work with, a real pleasure! Keep up the good work!!!

Thanks for a very cool app. Just what is was looking for.

Devs: Imagine your playing a few tunes in a dark bar on open mic night. The only bright light is YOUR IPAD!!! Now imagine you click on "settings" and flip to "night mode". The iPad changes to a black background with white letters and blue chord letters. Now imagine how cool that would be. Now implement the change so I can give you another star! EDIT: There is another problem with what might someday be my favorite app. After I exit a song, the app forgets the speed I set the auto scroll at. So EVERY one of my 200 songs needs to be re-calibrated every time I open them. The app should REMEMBER the speed I set the scroll at. This way, when I open a song, all I have to do is press play, and I can perform it. There is an app called MusicStand that does this. Look into it.

This is one of the reasons I got an iPad.

Just bought this app a few hours ago. So far its one of the best apps Ive ever bought! Easy to navigate and does exactly what its advertised to do...buy this one!

This app has only a few bells and whistles, but its largely stable, quick to load and easy to mater, once you get the hang of the interface and the syntax, which are not difficult. I may upgrade to a more expensive app one day that offers more features, but for the price, Im very happy with the way Perfect Guitar Song Book performs.

Thats all. Get it. Its incredible.

I am very pleased with this app. I use it every week in my church. No more song books or paper! My song library is robust and very portable. I really like all the customization to the view and adding new songs takes minutes. Another person at my church uses it to and we can send songs and lists to each other in less than a minute. Also, if you need paper print outs, it does that too. I have a wireless printer and I just send a song or an entire list of songs right from my iPad. Easy, easy...

Excellent! With a little practice I can put some 300 songs with chords. This is most awesome, do not have to carry binders of songs. Thank You Awesome , awesome , awesome!!!

Top app Ive seen for pros, doing gigs. Scroll function and transposing are a breeze. Ive downloaded songs in seconds in order to fulfill requests, which amazed fans, leading to tip$ that have paid for this app ten times over. I havent found anything better...dont expect to. Great work on this, Florian!

I would have rated it 5stars if it had an option for the Nashville notation system and the ability to transfer songs via WiFi.

This is such an awesome app, I absolutely love it!

I never rate apps, however this is amazing! I have searched for a chord app like this for years to replace my old, heavy, messy, hard copy chord book.. This is exactly how I would have created it myself.

I like getting together with friends and playing songs. Now me and my friends are using this app to compile all our faves to sing on our own or together at camp outs or what have you. I really love it. As far as comstructive feedback Id say it could be a little prettier in terms of design and the .chopro formatting system could be a little more user friendly. Its not complicated but making it less "programmy" would be nice. Bonus features might be to be able to sync with a friend somehow within the app, and have multiple songbooks. Also an AppleTV out would be Great. That said, its just the app I was looking for and features like autoscroll and transpose are simply dynamite.

I thought this was a songbook, but its actually just a word processor of sorts. Most of my scores are in PDF, so theres no way to import them.
