### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPhone

*2026-05-08, version 1.7.7*

Download to your iPhone to your hearts content, but you will not see your lyric files.  Literally no support from the app developers.  An embarrassing effort for sure. Do not download it. It’s a waste of your time

### 5/5 — It works

### 5/5 — Started out awesome

*2024-11-08*

This app was amazing at first. It added in songs from ultimate guitar smoothly, and I was able to add in my own originals/songs not on ultimate guitar and their chords just fine. Recently after adding a song not on UG, I tried to edit a word and add chords and it wouldn’t let me. I closed out the app and went to try again to find every song in that set list now had all chords removed. I was going to try to edit them all individually and get chords back on the songs, however I’m scared of something else happening. Is there going to be an update with a bug fix soon? I really liked this app. It’s really disappointing that it’s glitched out this hard.

**Developer response:** Hi!

Thanks for sharing your feedback.

Maybe you tapped by mistake the icon with a ‘C’ that enables/disables the chord presentation.

If that isn’t the case please email us some example snapshots to songfolio_app@acodeapps.com so that we can diagnose the issue.

Thank you so much!

### 4/5 — Songfolio

*2024-10-02*

I thought it is an excellent performance tool with one exception and that is you can’t adjust the scroll speed to suit your timing so you have to keep using a hand to push or slow the scroll.
However I have since found out that by adjusting the time of the song you CANadjust the scrolling speed so I’m now a happy bunny.

**Developer response:** Hi!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review!

You can adjust the scrolling speed by setting the song duration in “Song Settings”. By default SongFolio assumes 3,5 minutes for each song but by adjusting this setting you can control the automatic scrolling speed.

Nevertheless we’re working on an improvement to also adjust the scrolling speed when viewing the song. 😉

You can also send us your suggestions and remarks by email to songfolio_app@acodeapps.com so that we can improve the app together!

Again, thank you so much!!!

### 5/5 — Excellente app ! Must Have pour les musiciens

*2024-05-30, version 1.7.0*

Très pratique, je m’en sers quasi tous les jours. Il y a peu d’app comme celle-ci. Elle permet de composer rapidement, de prendre des notes, de faire des setlits…
Quelques fonctionnalités au fonctionnement un peu bizarre (défilement automatique, déplacement du curseur en mode « modifier »…) qui pourraient être améliorées. 
De plus l’équipe répond aux questions très rapidement. Bravo et merci 🤩
