    How can you indicated anticipated chords? Eg or a half beat tied to the next bar?

    Because iReal book started out as a jazz improvising tool and with the limited screen size of the iPhone the chords are just an improvising guide, so any anticipations are generally ignored, since the references of the chords in a bar are for the soloing.
    Some people put in the slash / in staff text area to indicate the main beats (quarter notes or whatever it is) then put the chord a space after it, to indicate it is after the main beat.
