The ultimate pocket sized song reference for Musicians, Music Students and Educators has just got even better with the addition of chord charts that transpose! Weve added an index to over 1,300 chord charts of Jazz standards that you can transpose to any key. Register and check for "Jazz Chord Charts - Transpose" in the Book List view.

iGigBook Mobile provides indexes for over 70 fake books and real books, giving you the ability to quickly search for songs by title or composer. Load PDF books onto your device using iTunes, email or the web for quick and easy reference. iGigBook Mobile lets you find out which book a song is in, what page it is on and most importantly, you can view the page of the book on your device.

Heading to the gig or rehearsal and cant remember what the melody to the tune is? Just use iGigBook Mobile to look up the song and display it with melody, chords and lyrics.

Do you need to share your set list and sheet music with your band members? iGigBook Mobile lets you email your set list AND include a PDF attachment of all of the songs in the set list.

NOTE: This is not an iPad App, it is designed for the small screen of an iPhone or iPod.

* iGigBook Mobile DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY PDF BOOKS, IT ONLY PROVIDES THE INDEXES FOR THE BOOKS.

Pros and cons of iGigBook Mobile - Pocket Size app for iPhone and iPad

iGigBook Mobile - Pocket Size app good for

Although it does take a bit of set-up time, which is easy if you follow the quick start guide, once you get it going, this is the BEST app for getting the chart (with melody) in front of you, in the shortest time !
Great app, now I want an iPad! Landscape would be a huge help, especially for us old guys.
Not sure what Rachelmalas is talking about this app makes managing all my charts so much more convenient. Beautifully designed. Im just looking for a screen larger than the iPad on which to display it. Any suggestions? ...p.s. two page view would make it perfect.
I bought the iPad version first. Quickly loaded it with my fake books & using the indexes was all set. Most worked right away, and the few that didnt I found out were missing pages which I fixed. Decided to get the iPhone version as figured it may be useful to call up tunes when didnt have iPad on me....it has!! Which was a universal app so iPad & iPhone were one, but other then that love it and worth another purchase
I dont use this app to gig with but it has come through for me so many time in the past when I needed a quick look at a melody. The latest update adds some of the great features present in the iPad version such as expanded export to Airdrop, Airprint and import from iCloud, Dropbox and Google Drive. I dont always have my tablet with me, but I do alwas have my phone which means quick access to my library anytime and any place.
Really happy with this app. Love having my sheetmusic at my fingertips in digital form for easy access and how my set lists are getting organized!

Some bad moments

I have spent hours trying to load my real books via itunes but never made it althow I tried to follow instructions !
The iPad app is ok, just ok, not really well made but does the job. Here you pay extra to have the "mobile app" which is almost an identical copy so the iPad which means no landscape orientation and auto scrolling and that makes this app useless to play on iPhone. You cannot see a full score line in portrait orientation on a iPhone or you need special power. You have to zoom in and scroll every bars. Waist of money. Plus it is one of this app that pop-up for ratting, I hate that, everybody should put one stars on this app, so they stop doing that.
Not good at all. I was expecting an application with some scores, instead of that, you have to scan all scores you have and put into the application one by one.
This has been an extremely frustrating App to try and get up and running, I would not recommend it at all.
The app may work but the setup is a pain and it does not link to any content. Move on get someone else that is written in modern code to assist setup not turn it into a frustration process.
Waiting for landscape view since five years now. The most moron developer in the world...
