## What is Band Captain?

Band Captain keeps your whole band on the same page: the song library, the setlists, and the schedule, together in one app.

SONG LIBRARY 
Every song your band plays, with reference audio, chord sheets, keys, tempos, and labels. Record a voice memo straight into a song from your phone, or attach audio files.

CHORD SHEETS, STAGE-READY 
ChordPro chord sheets with one-tap transpose, auto-scroll you can pace to the song, and a tempo readout. Built for a phone on a mic stand.

SETLISTS 
Build setlists from your library, drag to reorder, add breaks, and see running time. Export a clean PDF song list for the venue or the sound tech.

SCHEDULING AND RSVPS 
Rehearsals and performances on a shared band calendar. Members RSVP in the app, and email nudges chase the stragglers so you're not texting everyone the night before.

WORKS OFFLINE 
Download a setlist, chord sheets and audio included, and it's all there in the basement venue with no signal.

Whether you run the band or just play in it, Band Captain keeps everyone in time.
