A basic app for managing song lyrics for gigs. Create a library of songs then create set lists for a gig. You can email these to other band members. During the gig - use the full-screen lyric view if you need to jog your memory. Nothing fancy, no mp3 files, no metronomes, no chords, no auto-scrolling. TIPS - You can close the library panel (the song/set list) with the 'cross' to make more space whilst editing in portrait mode. To bing it back swipe from the left side of the screen. Press the 'book' icon to keep it there. - You can add a Key to a song, this will be displayed in the title bar during performance mode. - When adding a song to a set, you can change the key for that occasion, this won't affect the songs normal key. - Use the slider in the performance mode to adjust the font size for that specific song during a gig. - Use the share icon to send songs and set lists to other band members.
