An amazingly good app. Very well designed, with powerful features. Suitable for advanced users as well as computer novices. (Recommended to a friend in their nineties, who also really likes it.) Needed features are accessible and unused features generally do not get in the way. The app developer (Hi, Mike!) is very responsive and clears up any problems quickly. Good documentation, tutorial videos and a support forum. For a relatively niche app, this is top class.
Reviews for MobileSheets
Have used this for several years. It's fantastic for gigging. I carry well over 5000 lead sheets in a package that weighs maybe 1 pound and fits inside of my case cover! Everything is perfectly indexed so finding a particular item is very easy. I'll never again struggle with a suitcase full of fake books. Also, the developer is very cooperative.
Surprisingly intuitive (I've been using it for a few days and only had to consult the manual twice) and full.of options. Works great on my Galaxy Tab with the S pen - marking up scores is fast and looks great with all the built-in "stamps" (e.g., dynamics, notes, clefs). I used the Trisl version for about 30 minutes before buying the Pro. Excited to use it in performance. Cannot recommend it enough.
This app is mature and works as expected. I have used it t0 load a bunch of pdf fakebooks where I have created my own index files. The forum discussions help you to learn the tricks necessary.with a little google search you can find partially built csv files for many of the most widely used fake books. There is a windows version available in the Microsoft store that allows you to add tunes, and create set lists with your pc. Then you can transfer your work to your tablet either by creating a backup and transferring it to your table or by syncing between your desktop (server) to your tablet (device). All of these functions work as expected.
I don't often leave reviews, but I have to say, this app is incredible. So many well thought out features, just the basic organization of a setlist is so fast and easy, and I keep finding new things to make my life easier, such as the "links" function to quickly jump from one page back to another in the instance of a DS al coda making my performance seamless. 100% worth the purchase, wish I would have bought sooner.
Fantastic product that helps me see my organ and piano music without touching any page turning device. I use it in the scrolling mode and simply tell it how long it takes to play the piece, then I press the start button and it scrolls to the end of the music without the stress of turning pages. It's especially good for people with visual impairment like myself because you don't have to spread the music far to the left or right, and am able to always see the music directly in front of my eyes!
This app had been great. I'm a professional musician, and use it for my big band, my brass quintet, and especially my broadway show books at my theater. Recently though, the app just closes in the middle of my show. It will only happen one time a show. Never for smaller pdf music files. I even purchased a new chromebook with much larger striated m storage, hoping it would fix this, but it didn't. There is no repair available, so I'm kind of stuck.
Great app and a very responsive creator. Update: after using for many years and bragging about it many times, I've come to realize a big problem. I have over 500 tunes that are scattered over that many directories plus sub-directories. When I try to extract the tunes I get a very long number for title. Even though the app offers to use the title listed in the app, that optioned didn't work and still only gave a long number for a title. That's two big problems for reclaiming my tunes.
Love the app. Been using it for years. Though I just updated for the first time in about three years, and it looks like the mid staff stamps are no longer included. I was hoping the updates added features, not take some away! I hope there's a way to use that instead of drawing individual lines when I need to rewrite my part...that need happens all the time in Broadway shows.
I could type out a long love story about this app, but I think that would be uncomfortable for everyone. But I do what to show a little love! I have been using MobileSheetsPro on my Samsung Tab S3 for a few years now for all my musical pit playing and it's been rock solid. I have an AirTurn pedal that works flawlessly with it and using the Samsung S-Pen to annotate is about as close to pencil/paper as you can get. BTW, link buttons are a lifesaver in music theatre! SO MANY CUTS. Lately, as I have been scanning my whole music library, I've been importing everything into the app, both on my tablet and then syncing to my computers. I've started using it daily in my university teaching and it is working great. There's so much more, but honestly, if you're a Windows or Android user, pay for apps and let them organize your music life!
