    Default How do I get realbook songs into my phone?

    Hi folks, I am looking for a possibility to download realbook songs to my iPhone, so that I can read the notes like sheet music on my display. Does anyone know how to do that? Cheers, René.

    Hello René
    iReal b shows chords only, not notation. There is beginners information here you might find useful:

    You might find the iPhone screen size a too small to see notation on, but you could run some tests on notated PDFs. Wikifonia has some songs if you want to test this:

    (although if someone was formatting specifically for iPhone using Sibelius or Finale notation software, they would format specifically for that proportion and size the staves so the notes were easily visible.)

    Additional note:
    for anyone with iPads, there are a few apps specifically designed for musicians viewing PDF notation, for example:
    forscore
    unrealBook
    as far as I know, they are not available for iPhone

    and Android tablets -
    MobileSheets
