Jokebook is the ultimate note taking, joke writing, set crafting, and performance recording app for stand up comedians. Created by a stand up comic, Jokebook has a built in text editor for writing individual jokes. Then when it's time to create a set, just drag and drop your jokes into the set editor. If you need to edit a joke, Jokebook will automatically update it in all of your sets - no more dealing with a dozen different versions of the same joke! Then when it's time to perform, you can even use Jokebook on stage with our Stage-Mode feature! Your jokes display in extra-large text, and you can use our built-in recording functionality to make sure you capture every audience reaction and ad-lib. Thanks to Jokebook's intelligent design, all of your recordings can be searched based on the set you recorded - i.e. search for specific jokes, or lines from your set.
