If you close and reopen PGSongBook’s web browser a new web search gets started. What if you want to go back to the web site you visited before closing the browser?
Just swipe over the URL bar of the browser from left to right:
With Perfect Guitar Song Book, you can easily starts web searches from the app’s add song dialog.
Thus, you just have to set a URL, that contains placeholders for title and/or artist as start URL of the built-in web browser in the app’s settings.
Example:
www.google.com/search?q=%a+%t+chords
This starts a google search with the song’s artist, title and the word “chords” (If you have entered artist and title in the add song screen before)
Placeholders: %a will be replaced with the artist %t will be replaced with the title
Examples for search URLs: Just copy an URL from here and paste into the start URL field in PGSongBook’s settings.
My new app Perfect Guitar Song Book finally arrived the App Store! I am especially proud to announce a unique and innovative scrolling experience: Shake2Scroll
App Description
With Perfect Guitar Song Book you always have your collection of guitar songs with you. You can easily transfer songs from the computer or get them from the Internet and organize them in lists. Aditionally, the app comes up with some innovative functions.
Features
Chord Pro Songs Songs may be entered or copied from the Internet as plain text or in Chord Pro format. If plain text is entered, PerfectGuitarSongBook automatically converts the song to Chord Pro format.
File Sharing You can transfer songs from your computer to the device or open them from any other app featuring the “Open in”-Dialog.
Inspiration Link a song from your iPod song library and play it later with only one tap.
Innovation: Shake2Scroll No song fits on one page. How can you scroll without using your hands? I speak from my own experience when I say that autoscrolling with a constant speed is not really usable. So I have found an innovative and exclusive solution: Shake2Scroll is a feature, where the table on which your device lies on is turned into a foot pedal. You just have to touch the table with your foot to scroll. Thanks to the precision of the iPhone/iPod/iPad’s sensors, even the slightest touch is enough. We just want you to have both hands free for the most important: your music.
Integrity Print your song, send them as PDF or Chord Pro file or open them as PDF on your device to export them to any app that can open PDF files.
Teamwork PerfectGuitarSongBook can display songs on TVs or other external displays, so that even your friends don‘t miss out. (appropriate cable is needed)
Flexibility Transpose your songs with only a few taps or format them with some so-called Chord Pro directives.
