Misleading App with No Sheet Music
I purchased the app thinking that I would be getting a digital “Real Book”/sheet music situation for gigs. It is not that. It merely indexes music that you must upload into the app yourself. I spoke with a rep who informed me that they clearly tell you in ALL CAPS that they do not provide music. However, it is at the bottom of the page. They use misleading words in the intro like “FREE BONUS! Over 1300 Jazz Chord charts“, and “the ultimate pocket song reference”, which sells you on the idea, that you’re getting more of what you think you’re already getting. That’s all before you can get to the actual truth about the app at the bottom of the page...
I was informed that I can’t get a refund because it’s through Apple, so I will leave $20 worth of wisdom here, IN CAPS:
BE UPFRONT AND HONEST ABOUT WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU’RE SELLING, ESPECIALLY IF YOU DON’T OFFER REFUNDS. Other than that, 5 star app, 2 star loss for the aforementioned issues.

Thank you for acknowledging that we mention in our 257 word description of the app the following:
* iGigBook Mobile DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY PDF BOOKS, IT ONLY PROVIDES THE INDEXES FOR THE BOOKS.
We don't know how much more honest we can be than that and all we can do is provide the information. We cannot make you read the information nor can we make you ask follow up questions. Your responsibility as a purchaser is to evaluate the information made available to you and if you're unclear about something ask follow up questions. You are a prominent bassist in the Chicago area that's played with many influential players and it's safe to assume that you know lots about music and sheet music. You know sheet music isn't free, you know about copyrights and royalties. The question is this: Armed with this knowledge how would you think for $9.99 you're getting thousands of dollars of sheet music for free?
Useful on iPhone probably great on ipad
I like this app, particularly the collection of transposable chord charts, which are great and readable in a gig situation. The app falls down on indexing PDF fake books. On the iPhone these display too small to be useful except for reference. On an ipad they would be big enough to use on a gig My biggest gripe is the indexing. With some books it never works, even trying the adjustments recommended on their website. In some other cases, even when the index works, you can't access the second page of the tune if there is more than one page. That complaint aside, it's well worth the money just for the 1200 transposable chord charts.
Very hard to get working
I must be missing something! There is nothing easy or intuitive about this app. Hard as I might, the instructions simply don’t work for me. Aside from a few songs that came with the app, I have never been able to add anything. Save your money folks.
