### 1/5 — Instructions for downloading transposable book doesn’t work.

*2026-08-12, version 10.9.9*

I can’t get Bob’s book downloaded. It doesn’t give me a green download button like the video shows.

### 5/5 — Great app with robust support

*2026-05-18, version 10.9.9*

With help from their forum and costumer support the app is easy to learn. It’s slightly more expensive than other apps but the cost is well worth it for the many tools available.

### 4/5 — Excellent tho quirky

*2026-04-04, version 10.9.9*

This is a great app. Very useful. But it’s got a significant learning curve partially for its advanced features, so you must invest a fair amount of time. It will pay dividends if you do. It’s not the most intuitive and the way it works isn’t the most seamless of designs but once you know it works it’s pretty functional. Has some bugs and unpredictable behavior. With the latest OS update, editing charts is more difficult and cumbersome. It’s also not always consistently responsive to screen Taps, sometimes slow to respond and sometimes crashes mysteriously, so that’s annoying and somewhat dysfunctional. Sharing and exporting importing doesn’t always work smoothly. If some of these things could be improved, I’d give it 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Wonderful Tool

*2026-04-03, version 10.9.9*

Well thought out with a SIMPLE learning curve.

### 1/5 — Tons of work to get up and running

*2026-03-23, version 10.9.9*

This program comes with very little music, which is OK, I have a bunch of Realbooks in PDF.  The problem is getting them into iGigbook is a major pain, and these guys have set the record for world’s worst documentation.  You know the saying: bad documentation is better than no documentation.  Not so.  Turns out wrong and misleading documentation is even worse.  I am currently so sorry I bought this.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-03-18, version 10.9.9*

This is deceptive advertising. Not what it seems through the app star. Want my money back

### 5/5 — The best music manager

*2026-02-07, version 10.9.9*

I love it. So smart,clear,and reliable. Thank you for such a wonderful app,

### 5/5 — Amazing tool.

*2026-01-12, version 10.9.9*

Great app for any gigging player.

### 5/5 — The best sheet music manager!

*2025-12-28, version 10.9.9*

There is no better app for managing your music collection.  Easy to use and has yet to fail me on the hundreds of gigs and rehearsals I’ve used it.  The book indexes make it easy to find any song no matter what PDF it is in and the many export options makes it easy to share music with both iGigBook users and non-users.  Keep up the good work!

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2025-12-23, version 10.9.9*

Clunky interface, non-functional indexing, non-helpful Help files. A virtual boat anchor.
