I'm a professional singer and have been using Band Helper for a few years to keep my database, play tracks and read lyrics. I can't insist enough on how useful it is to be able to add tags and colours to the songs. As tags I have genres and languages, and I use different color codes depending on how well I know the lyrics so I can be more or less confident leaving the stage and roaming with the audience. Fast editing on PC then sync to tablet. Brilliant!

BandHelper should first be setup and configured on your desktop computer; not on your phone. The app takes time to learn and implement, but once setup, and song information entered, it is an invaluable tool for any working musician or band. It makes gig planning, and set list construction so easy. Plus you can quickly distribute songs, setlists, and gig information to all band mates immediately. It is well worth the subscription price if you are a serious musician.

I have looked at virtually every product on the market to share lyrics, manage midi devices and get organized with songs and setlists. This one is incredibly flexible, powerful and inexpensive. These all require some upfront investment in time to learn, but this solution is way easier to work with than others I have tried. I'm very happy to have found it and if it fits your needs - I'd highly recommend you try it out!
