The best!

I have tried all of the rest and this is the best!

Buggy

There’s a lot to dislike about this app … it crashes regularly (i am on a new ipad, fully updated and so is my app version) and it does not grey-out songs already selected in other sets when you are building multiple set lists (hour 1, hour 2, hour 3 of a gig, for instance).

Crashes can happen at anytime without notice.

It’s extremely maddening to have to go back and look at other sets to make sure you’ve not already selected a song. The app used to grey out all songs you had in other active sets. Why on earth would they remove this feature?

I hate paying for this app, but I am stuck depending on it. They know so it’s mediocre at best.

Unreliable

This app has given me more headaches on Sunday mornings than you can imagine. Zero support. Used to be able to link Dropbox easily. Not anymore!

New versions

You guys made things way too complicated over the years!

Mediocre, but could be so much better.

Still trying to get this program to work effectively. It still does not operate with proper son-by-song sync between devices.
