Gig Chord Book

You know the songs. You just need the chart in front of you, in the right key, and the next song ready when this one ends.

Gig Chord Book holds your own chord charts — the ones you already have, pasted from wherever you keep them — and turns them into something you can actually read on a dark stage.

BRING YOUR OWN CHARTS
Paste a chart and it just works. ChordPro files and directives (.pro, .cho, .crd, .chopro), inline brackets like [G]this, and plain charts with the chords sitting on the line above the words. You can mix both styles in one song. Nothing is uploaded anywhere — there is no account and no server.

TRANSPOSE WITHOUT REWRITING
Move a song up or down and every chord follows. Your own notation is kept exactly as you typed it: Am stays Am, A7sus4 stays A7sus4, Cmaj7#11 stays Cmaj7#11. Set a capo and the app prints the shapes your fingers actually make while the sounding key stays where it is.

THE PERFORMANCE SCREEN
Dark, large type, and the screen stays awake while a chart is open. Chords sit directly above the syllable they belong to, so a line wraps as a unit and a chord never ends up away from its word. Adjust the text size until it reads at arm's length. Auto-scroll at six speeds, or leave it off and scroll yourself.

SETLISTS THAT PLAY THROUGH
Build the running order for a gig, then play it from the top. Next and previous move you between songs without leaving the chart. Every song remembers its own transpose, capo and scroll speed.

STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
No account, no sign-up, no cloud. Your songs, setlists and settings live in this app's storage on this device. Export a backup file whenever you want and keep it wherever you like.

FREE, WITH NO SUBSCRIPTION
Unlimited songs and setlists from the first day. Nothing to unlock. The app is supported by advertising, and the performance screen has none of it — an ad over a chart in the middle of a song is the last thing anyone needs.

Three traditional songs are included so there is something to look at on the first run.
