  • Best Out There

    I absolutely love this app. Great functionality and purpose. Easy to create set lists on the web with easier typing and stuff, then sync it to the app. Make one list— every band member gets it. I like the fact you can customize your particular info that pops up for the set list and doesn’t affect the others. I can display my drum charts with my set list in split screen while the other guys can display chord charts and things they need. Works really well on my iPad Pro. Big writing and buttons. I also have it connected via Bluetooth to my iRig page turner to advance to the next song and turn my metronome on/off. I have the Pro version of this app for schedules, stage plots, contacts, and financials. It really comes in handy, especially the “contacts” feature. You can save venue info for later use. You can use the app with MULTIPLE accounts (handy for hired gun musicians), make several different “repertoires,” set lists, etc. I LOVE THIS APP!!!!

  • This App is a Necessity

    We love this app for the song list organization and equally for the band member scheduling. It’s been life changing by helping to keep our band Big Time Grain Company on the same page.
  • Excellent app, great support

    A ton of features which make a working band's life much easier.
  • Wow! ... Wait... What? ... Oh.

    This looked promising... Added a few songs... Ok. That works. Let me create a list. Ok... Why is this getting complicated? It looks like a list on my desktop, let's look in the app! Hmmm. No "layouts" have been created... Why do I need a layout to view a set list? Ok I'll try to create a layout... Oh. My. Gee. What? I need to use drag and drop complexity to create an layout? Wait... But this isn't a list! It is a set of pages? Ok... I'll add a document button to view a chart for the tune! Cool! I can click the button to view the chart -- it shows me the lyrics. Swipe to see the PDF chart ... Can't get out of the document view without force quitting the app. Great.

    I just wanted to share a set list with my band. So they could practice the songs -- auto play through the recordings. A bonus would be some chord charts for the live gig -- and PDF charts too. This application might actually allow you to do some of those things, but not without a unacceptable amount of difficulty.

    Developer Response

    Your device should have a default set of layouts. If it doesn't, you can click Help > Utilities > Load Default Layouts.
  • This app is the real deal

    Finally found the app I needed for set lists and arrangements.. the developer seems on top of it as well , unlike some apps that are left with bugs unfixed and no updates or product support.. 2 thumbs up from the whole band. Well worth the subscription fee which is very reasonable.
  • Best app for bands. Period.

    This app does it all (and more). It has made prepping music for a 10 piece band a breeze. Arlo has some of the best support. Download it and don’t look back!
  • Absolutely the Best!

    If you are a musician, soloist or in a band, this app is an absolute must. I tossed my paper lead sheets several years ago and haven’t looked back since. Lyrics and chords are displayed and scrolled. I do not need to remember synth presets since the app can send them as needed with each song. If someone wants to sit in with you but they can only sing in a different key, no problem.... change it on the fly. I absolutely love the app. Far better than anything else out there. Nice to have the owner/developer interacting with customers and providing lots of great enhancements.

  • Incredible tool!

    This is an incredibly useful tool for performing bands and musicians. The developer is incredibly responsive to user feedback and updates the app regularly. The latest update is crammed with fabulous new features. Worth every cent and more. If only more app developers were this good!
  • Love this app!

    Incredible app, with nothing like it on the App Store. I’m a working drummer playing for few different bands. I can see my notes with each song and control my midi device from the same spot. Support is awesome with fast reply. Great developer and an awesome app!
  • Fantastic took

    I play accordion and sing so no free hands
    Bandhelper has all my lyrics, that by the scroll along, my chord charts and notes in one easy layout.
    Plus with my wireless midi setup with the turn of a page it changes midi channels on my boss Rv 300 and my voice live touch
    While linking to all iPads of my band members. I change anything in my set they have the same info on their screen and all my midi gizmos hopping along
    Just a great product
