What's New in My Chord Book

3.0

August 26, 2026

My Chord Book has been rebuilt from the ground up. WRITE BY HAND - Full-page Apple Pencil canvas for every song, saved as you write - Drawing tools: pen, marker, highlighter, eraser, lasso, ruler, undo and colours - Double-tap your Apple Pencil to switch to the eraser - Start drawing on a blank page and the song is created for you A REAL SONGBOOK - Books with chapters and songs, turned page by page like a paper book - Table of contents: tap any chapter or song to jump straight to it - Move songs between chapters, reorder them, delete them - Song details: key, tempo, composer and time signature CHORD FINDER - Build chords with extensions, alterations and suspensions, or pick notes or a scale - Every position on the fretboard, with selectable fret ranges - Save several voicings per chord to the song - Chord diagrams along the top of the page — reorder them, or drag one onto the page YOUR FILES - Every book is a .chordbook document in the Files app - iCloud Drive sync between iPad and iPhone, works offline - Share a book with a bandmate over AirDrop - No account, no tracking, no ads Books made in this version keep working in future versions — and a book written by a newer version opens read-only here instead of losing anything. COMING FROM VERSION 2? Your old songs come along. Open an .mcbsong file, or use Import 2.0 Song inside any book, and the song arrives as a handwritten page with its chords, bar lines, section labels and lyrics. Chords get a standard fingering to start from. Your original files are never changed or deleted.

My Chordbook

This would be perfect if it worked. Any suggestions for an app that does this but works?

Doesn't work on iPad 3

Too bad cuz it's a great concept.

Not for ipad2

Only thing I could enter was the song title. Looks like it could be a good app if it worked.

Nothing happens

Waste of space. You can enter a title then that is it.
It gets one star because it is the least you can enter but deserves no stars.

Does not work on ipad2

All you can do is add a title. That is it folks. Tap away to your hearts content and nothing else happens Ever!

I thought apple tested apps before they could be placed to Market. Obviously not.

Waste of time sorry.
