Nicht ausgereift

Ich habe mir für diese App extra ein neueres iPad mit dem neuesten iOS zugelegt damit ich die Texte über iCloud synchronisieren kann.
Wenn das iPad über LAN-Adapter ins Netzt geht, werden die Files gar nicht synchronisiert. Nur über WLAN. Danke für die Strahlung.

Zweitens: die App schreibt ALLE Texte in einen einzigen Text-Klumpen. Ich frag mich wie lange das gut geht und wann deer grosse Gau mit Datenverlust kommt.
Jetzt schon (etwa 1000 Texte drin) dreht sich der Beachball des Todes bei jeder kleinen operation.

Heute hat sich die App am Mac bei einfachsten Operationen schon mehrmals aufgehängt und wird träge.

Ich werde die App erst dann mit Spenden unterstützen wenn sich das Konzept ändert. Jede andere ähnliche App speichert ihre Songtexte in einzelnen Dateien. So ist es am logischsten, sichersten und schnellsten.

PS: Und wieso zum Kuckuck findet man keine Texte in der App wieder die im Titel einen Apostroph enthälten, wie z.B. "don't" oder "you're" oder "let's"?

PS2: Gerade habe ich ca. 15min lang einen Text direkt in der App editiert. Sie wurde immer träger, deshalb habe ich mich entschieden meine Arbeit zu speichern.
Ja, kurz wurde mir eine bearbeitete Version gezeigt. Super. Ich gehe in den Edit-Mode. BOOM. Meine Arbeit ist weg. Der Text ist in den Ursprungszustand gekehrt.
Also jetzt habe ich schon langsam Angst um meine Daten.

A Breath of Fresh Air

I have been so frustrated with Ultimate Guitar’s Tabs and Chords app. I’ve had nothing but trouble with songs disappearing from my set list, the scroll speed changing randomly, my song edits disappearing, the constant ads, the promotion of services I don’t need or want. FINALLY I discovered JustChords and it gives me EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for in a tabs / chords app… JUST THE CHORDS! It’s even in the name! It also loads as a plugin in my DAW on iPad so no more switch apps. I’m grateful that it’s not subscription based as well. Best app for tab/chords I’ve seen yet. THANK YOU 💕

Thank you, we appreciate your feedback 👍

Fantastic App

I was a user of OnSong until they stopped supporting the app that I had purchased and created an inferior subscription version. I found JustChords by chance and have been extremely happy with it. It works every bit as well as the original OnSong app and better in some circumstances. The app is constantly getting quality of life updates and has significantly improved over the last year and a half that I’ve been using it. There’s a a link within the app to a very lengthy list of items that have been improved upon; are in the process of being improved upon and are planned for future versions. The developer has also been very responsive to inquiries in the rare times that I’ve needed to reach out on something. If you get the app and like it, do give these guys a tip from time to time. I feel the amount of work that’s constantly being done definitely warrants a few bucks. I couldn’t say the same for OnSong.

JustChords schlägt OnSong in vielen Bereichen und ist insgesamt sehr viel aufgeräumter. Für mich die neue Referenz 👏
