Attach image to chart?

[Richard51]

I totally agree with everyone who has said Ireal Pro is the must have app for gigging musicians. I've had a lot of use out of it in many different situations. One idea that I think would make it even more useful is if it could access external graphic or PDF files on the same device (without having to leave the app) so you would have seamless access to other material that is not necessarily a chord chart. If you can do this on stage with a minimum of fuss it would make the app even more useful. I've also been told (although I can't find any mention online) that there is an app that lets you quickly add rehearsal notes to a chart (ie: like a drawing/painting app)and save/recall/delete them at a later time. Has anybody come across this ? it would be a great help if it is out there somewhere.

I find very useful the multi-windows feature on Android 7. I can have iRealPro and another app open side by side.
Like displaying a iRealPro chart and a PDF file or web page to have lyrics or other information relative to the tune next to each other. This is very cool!

You might be referring to these or similar:
iOS - forScore or Unrealbook or iGigbook
Android - MobileSheets
(PC - MobileSheets)

Designed for musicians, they display PDFs (and other formats, depending on the app) and can be used in the foreground (iReal Pro playing in the background). You can use them for notation, lyrics, exported charts from iReal Pro, etc. You add metadata to each song (like composer, key, style, band name) then sort, organise, categorise, make set lists, search ... and make annotations with stylus, finger or on recent models of iPad, use Apple pencil.

Thanks, I've been checking these out and also found an (Android only) app called 'Fakebook Pro'. If Ireal Pro was to incorporate the best features of that app (Photo and PDF import into indexed locations and annotations)it would blast those other apps out of the water.
