Description

SongKit is an AI-powered songbook app for your iPhone and iPad.
It helps you organize, view, and edit your songs sheets on any of your devices.

With SongKit, you can edit or display songs with chords for pianos or guitar-like instruments (guitar, bass, banjo, ukulele, mandolin). The app can generate chord voicings for these instruments with complete control. Tablatures are also supported for guitar-like instruments.

SongKit works on musical intervals internally and all musical computations are exact. You can transpose a song to any key without losing the musical meaning of notes and chords. Tabs and chord voicings can be automatically transposed by its exclusive voicing engine.

The app uses a unique layout engine with automatic avoidance, line wrapping, and information density optimization. The engine supports multiple columns, pagination, content-aware rescaling, and much more. Styles are fully customizable and can be shared with other users. The app also allows exporting songs as professional-looking full-vector PDFs.

Songs are edited with a unique text-based view. You can type lyrics naturally, add suggested chords, insert some tablatures, drag and drop a chorus from one place to another, copy a verse and paste only the chords over some other lyrics, or insert one of the thousands of musical symbols that are shipping with the app.

The app fully supports multitasking on the iPad. You can save collections of chords, symbols, and tabs and reuse them in other songs, with automatic transposition.

With SongKit, each song is an individual file. You can organize them as you wish, let them sync using iCloud, back them up, or share it with your friends in two taps.

The app ships with an AI-powered extension that allows you to import songs directly from your web browser or many other apps in a few taps.

You can also share chord collections, templates, musical instruments, voicing generator configurations.

The app currently supports:
Songs with several instruments, in several keys;
Chord voicings generation for Piano;
Chord voicings and tabs for guitars, basses, banjos, ukulele, mandolin, with or without capos, right and left-handed;
Automatic transposition of tablatures;

app freezes, no manual, chord editing (guitar) difficult, UI cumbersome

This could be a great app. But you won`t understand this app really because there is no manual, just a basic first step help. There are many features, like all these strange icons with red dots and black dashes between them (has it to do with a circle of 5ths?) that go with every chord. I found no explanation whatsoever. Quite a few things in chord editing and detection just don’t make sense, the editing is a pita because the UI is all over the place here, and while you edit the chords the app can freeze, which.happened to me several times. Example: You enter a chord’s notes in the virtual fretboard, say Cmaj9 - often used by guitarists (Note C on the third fret). The app will recognise an “E7 (b13)no5/C”. Aha! But wait, you can look up 138 variations and find the Symbol you hoped for, the Cmaj9. If you tap on the shown chord, the window with the options disappears and the strange E7 thing did not change. Why show the options when you cant choose it? And so on and so on. (I tried to contact the developer three times to describe the quirks in detail and felt like a beta tester, but no reaction. So don’t try to get any help if you need it. I also have the first app of the dev. named Chord!, but could not get along with its cluttered UI, but this app looked so much better and I needed different features anyway. Wrong I was. Spent my money and cannot use the app. Very frustrating, because it could be such a great app and radio silence from the developer.
