This app doesn’t work - tunes can’t be imported

This app is completely useless. There are no options for adding tunes to a Tunebook. In short it allows you to add a Tunebook title and nothing else.

Love it!

Would love to see an update. This is one of the better ABC apps in the Apple sphere. It would be a real shame to see it abandoned.

Abandoned. 5yrs since last update

Almost impossible to import ABC Files

I use this all the time

Like the title says, I use this all the time. It is very handy when I am learning something new and want something to play along with. I am sorry the developer seems to be having trouble with the App Store

Almost there

I actually have v3.2.17 (3.1.17 listed as latest.) It pretty much does everything I want it to, and the ability to change instruments is a plus. My main beef—I cannot select Tunebook as an “Open In” option when downloading an abc file. I can save it anywhere else, including Tabledit, but not Tunebook. I’m sure there is a simple workaround, but it’s just odd that an app whose sole purpose is to read and create abc files is not recognized by iOS as an associated app. Otherwise, it’s a pretty well designed and stable app.
