Comments on Fakebook Pro Real Music Reader for Android
★★★★★Joshua Oskirka· Jan 20, 2019
So much offered for so little asked, you could pay $100+ getting all the songs this app offers! It is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!
★★★★☆Andrei Smirnov· Dec 5, 2021
Great app. Use it for 3 years already and am very happy with it. However, I have an issue transferring database from one device to another. Could you please give users a bit more info on how to do that? I created a database backup file and transferred it to a new device, but when I'm trying to replace the stock database with it, the app just hangs and nothing happens. Is there another method I should try?
★★★★★Leslie Colonello· May 23, 2021
Inexpensive but loaded with everything I need to give to a piano or guitar player who needs the chords. Now there's no excuse for an unprepared sideman.
★★★★★Danny Russo· Aug 28, 2019
Bought it to transfer my sheet music for live performances. The only app of its kind that allows quick access to any song in my large catalog. Very few bells and whistles, but that's what I wanted.
★★☆☆☆Lura Griffiths· Mar 27, 2019
So far, every format other than a PDF I have tried to import has failed. File type not supported. No iRealB files will import.
★★☆☆☆scott soule· May 3, 2020
You would think that it would be rather easy to change keys, but this app seems you down a rabbit hole just to transpose, and then it doesn't transpose the chart. The user has to transpose all the chords manually. It has a lot of charts. No lyrics, or melody lines.

I have the cord changes I want the music song nots

Dear developers everywhere: I don't know why it is so hard to make an app to do something so simple I've gone through probably every single PDF app on play store. All we need is the ability to bookmark specific pages across a variety of PDFs and place those bookmarks in a single location that is accessible so that when I click bet bookmark it takes me to the PDF with that specific page number we also need the ability to name those bookmarks and organize them in to separate lists.
