    Simple enough to actually use!
    I really appreciate how instantly functional this app is. As one who has lots of songs in various forms and drafts, it gives me one place to collect not only the lyrics, but notes and rough recordings so I don't lose those melodies when they appear. And I like being able to sort them into labels and produce copies and alternate versions easily. I wish I could have a twin app for the ipad to make it more portable. I don't have problems dragging audio in and out for use in other apps. I am hoping for chord notations to update soon. Forgetting actual chord voicings and progressions is a problem I have with paper versions and garage band alike. Show more

    Great tool for organizing moments of inspiration.
    I've always been a bit scattered with my creative ideas for songs and usually end up with lyrics, ideas, chord progressions, riffs, etc scattered around my studio on post-it notes, napkins, and in the margins of the day's junk mail. My system wasn't perfect but it was what I was used to. So I was skeptical that a computer app would be of any use to me but decided to give it a shot. Wow, what a great surprise! With very little effort I was organizing lyrics and ideas and actually putting them together in a coherent way that made me look at what I had in a different way. Lo and behold, I found myself writing a song. The app is well-organized so that you And your ideas) will be too. It is a great tool for songwriters that is easy to use and well worth the price.

    Nice features, easy to use, and works great!
    I really like this app for writing and developing songs. It's straightforward and simple to use, with some nice features, and it works well with no glitches. What I like most is the way it makes it easier to keep song lyrics and ideas organized and accessible, so I don't lose them or forget about them. I like being able to open the program and see a list of the songs I'm working on all in one place. Importing is easy. It was simple and quick to import songs and song-ideas that were in text files or Word docs into this app. There's an export function too, that I haven't used. The text editor is straightforward and works great, with simple control of font sizes and styles, and paragraph alignment. The app includes a rhyming dictionary and a regular dictionary. I appreciate the way the rhyming dictionary allows you to control your search to get stronger or lighter rhymes. A couple of other features are nice: The song list includes a customizable "label" column that is useful for categorizing songs or ideas. I found this helpful for tagging pieces I need to work on next. The "version" feature is nice too, for those times I want to try out some alternate lyric ideas but don't want to lose the first ones... Just "duplicate" the lyric, and the program creates a new version to play with, leaving the original intact. The audio recorder works fine and will come in especially handy when I've got a melodic idea and want to quickly get it down before I forget it. It's fine for recording and playing back a straightforward single-track performance of a song - nothing fancy, but it works well. Very handy and helpful application! Show more
