NOT AI, lol like fr

So I started using this app like a week ago, and I literally LOVE it so much. I lead music for my church and all of our iPads use this app. It’s COMPLETELY FREE for one, which is hard to find lol. And secondly it keeps ALL of my songs in order and it lets me transpose the key. Also I play piano and it will show you the chords and stuff, or if your like me and don’t need that than you can turn it off. I’m just trying to let y’all know about this app cause I read these reviews to see if it’ll be good and PRAISE THE LORD it is!!!!! So DEFINITELY recommend, btw still haven’t gave me any problems.

Killer app

I have been using OnSong for probably 10 years. It’s always had some weird quirks and did many things that I just wasn’t interested in. JustChords has been a fantastic app for me and has replaced on song without a problem. The fact that all my devices sync easily. The fact that you can easily search for a song and imported. You will not go wrong with this app. And of course at the moment it’s free.

Thanks - enjoy! 😊

Best app yet

Just getting started here, but this is the best chart app I’ve ever used.

Reliable Ukulele Companion

This software works! With a little help from UkeBuddy.com I’m able to get all the correct fingering charts and the chords lined up with lyrics.

Best app ever!

As a pianist, this is easily the very best chord app I’ve ever used. The song add functionality is brilliant, and the app overall is easy to use and packed with helpful features. Even the customisation feels great. Every aspect of this app has been well though-out and well-executed and it really shows. Thanks so much for such a great app!

Amazing app

Absolutely love this app. Best in class. Use it for all my songs and songwriting. Always improving.

Exceptional app

For a gigging musician that needs to keep track of songs, sets, keys, tempos, capos and on and on. Easy to add new songs from the popular internet chord sites. Can’t believe it’s free

Love this app!

Great features, I love that you can create your own versions of the chord charts, and that they appear at the top of the song. Great for learning new songs or refreshing your memory.

Very helpful app

I have been wanting something like this for a while... so surprised it is free! This will be very helpful for my church.

One little bug I can't figure out... when adding the details for the song that can go on the bottom of the page (composer, etc.), the first time I exported a PDF that information was included. Now when I try exporting a PDF, that kind of information doesn't appear on the page. I can't figure out why. Any suggestions?

*BEST* App in class 🥇

I’m not one in general to “waste my time” writing reviews of anything, but JustChords is not only a fantastic, easy to set up and use app, but the Developers have been uber-responsive in helping me set it up and run on multiple platforms (iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro), and tech support and bug fixes are great.

They are constantly improving and updating and helping end-users, and they really take suggestions seriously and try to incorporate into each new version.

It’s been a God-send for helping with songwriting and gigging/open mics.

Only reason I gave it only 5 stars is because I couldn’t give 10! 👍🏽👍🏽

Awesome feedback, thank you! ❤️

Amazing!

As someone who was tired of any software that’s subscription based, especially subscription tiers… I found this app and it’s amazing.

It does everything you need and more. Free and no ads. It’s really is amazing, I’ve been using it for all my gigs for a good while now with zero regrets.

I use sheet music and just chords and for both I find it works brilliantly.

Developer is amazing and so good at responding to feedback, help and requests on discord.

Great but…tagging logic is upside down

I love almost all features of this app except for 2. (1) tagging system logic is different from any other system I’ve ever seen. Normally you filter by tag, so if you select only “covers” all the songs tagged “covers” come up. Not so with just chords. Here if the song has any other tags, it’s excluded when the other tags are unchecked. I’d love to understand this choice, but moreso I’d love the option for it to work normally with tags. Not useful now. (2) control s does not save on iPad or desktop. ???
Otherwise great for writing and good for performing. Song import options are wonderful. Just need functional tags.

Response from developer

Thank you. Filtering by tags works like you describe it—try searching in All Songs or use the "By Tags" view. The special feature you describe was developed for a different purpose—to hide songs with specific tags (e.g., to hide Christmas songs by tags). We will try to improve the explanation of this feature. Regarding point 2: Please reach out to us on Discord so we can discuss and fix the issue - https://discord.gg/zvWKsHSwUB Thank you for your feedback—we appreciate it!

Oh oh

I loved this app…till yesterday. Doing a sound check about 2 hours before my gig, JustChords wouldn’t load ANY songs from my library, would only show tracks from my latest setlist. Emailed the publisher/owner for help and in spite of many many emails back and forth, never found the cause or solution. He kept coming back to sync problems with iCloud, but I have never used iCloud have it’s been shut off on all my devices for literally years. Luckily, the problem showed up in time for me to print out all the charts I needed so I went “Legacy” for the gig. If this happened immediately before or during a gig, I’d be dead. I have removed JC from all my devices and will go back to searching for something I can rely on. 2 stars for the quick response and effort of Marek…

app crashes when trying to import songs

When I try and import a song from an online source the app crashes quite often. When I reopen the app and repeat the attempt it works....very frustrating and time wasting.

Best solo acoustic app!

This app is the best I’ve found for storing songs. Editing them. Changing the key. Putting them in set lists. It has the best scroll feature by you putting in a time duration for the song. Increasing font size. Putting font in bold. It’s everything and all that you will ever need!

Fantastic app

This is exactly what a music chart app should be. Zero complaints (unless you’re using an older iPad. Not all the features will be available). I actually upgraded my device for the app, so that says a lot.

Awesome app

This is an awesome lyrics and chord app. Does so much more than that also but it’s the first app I’ve used that if you need features added or notice bugs the developer responds quite quickly to address any issues and seems to be constantly improving to the users needs. Been in between different apps for playing music trying to find one that will check all the boxes and pretty set on this one and no subscriptions or cost to it! Would be more than happy to pay a one time fee though.

Thank you 👍

Great but stopped working

I’ve used so many lyrics/chord apps over the years and finally found one that I love!! I literally had zero complaints, everything was great but recently it’s stopped letting me pinch zoom in. Really frustrating as I can no longer use it. Really hoping it’s a bug and is fixed soon! Other than this recent problem I can’t speak highly enough about JustChords
