Everything in its place

From the first hummed idea to the night you play it live, each part of the song has a home.

A closer look

Built for songwriters who have voice memos in one app, lyrics in another and chord charts on paper.

Everything about a song, on one page

Each song keeps its whole story: the lyrics and the rough drafts that came before them, the chords, every recorded version, and the paperwork for when it's released.

  • Lyrics, rough drafts and chords
  • Audio versions, from voice memo to final mix
  • PDFs, notes, credits, licensing and release details

Performance Mode

Large lyrics and chords that are easy to read from a mic stand. Transpose the whole song in one tap when you need it in a different key. On Mac, PDFs scroll on their own at the speed you set.

Try it: change the key of the chart.

Low Tide Key of G

Playlists and setlists

Use playlists to hear an album take shape before you record it, choosing which version of each song to play. Build setlists for a gig with the keys you play each song in, then open them in Performance Mode on stage.

Covers, kept separate

Learn other people's songs without cluttering your own catalog. Covers have their own list and count, with the original artist, key, tempo, chords and lyrics. They work in playlists, setlists and Performance Mode just like your songs.

On every device

Your library syncs through iCloud, so the song you started on your iPhone is waiting on your Mac, and the setlist you built at home is on your iPad at the gig.
