What's New in PocketSongbook

1.1

September 6, 2026

PocketSongbook now supports iPad natively, in portrait and landscape. View your songbook or setlist alongside the selected song, adjust the column widths, or hide the list to give your chord chart more space. Your active songbook and setlist are saved automatically and restored when you reopen the app. Export JSON for backups and sharing, or use Clear Songbook to remove the current repertoire from the app. This update also improves readability with adjustable text sizes and colors, and refines song selection and navigation on iPhone and iPad.

Fast, simple way to capture chords.

A great way to write down chords quickly - whether you’re writing your own song or transcribing one by ear as you listen. It’s perfect for jotting down a progression before you forget it, titling it and saving it so you can come back and annotate it later. No clutter, no set up, just chords and a name. If you play guitar or piano and keep losing ideas on scraps of paper or in your notes app, this solves it.
