Yes. You'll need an internet connection to install the app and download the tunebooks initially. After doing so, you can use the app offline. From time to time, you'll need an internet connection for updates.
If you tried to click the "Get the app" button on your mobile device and got a "...can't be installed here..." message, check out our installation help page.
The app is not available in the App Store or Play Store.
RealSheet is based on web technology, so it is not a native app.
This allows for flexible, time- and cost-efficient development while offering
the same look-and-feel and functionality as a native app.
It can only be installed from RealSheet.net.
You can import individual tunes or tunebooks in abc format. Learn more about creating, converting, importing and publishing your tunes.
To export a tune in PDF format, select "Print/PDF" which will bring up a print dialog. Most devices allow you to print, export, and share a document as a PDF from the print dialog. Exporting to other formats is not currently available.
There are two transpose menus: "Key" and "Instrument". In "Key" you select the concert key (the key in which you would play the tune on the piano). "Instrument" lets you select your transposing instrument (e.g. Bb for tenor sax, Eb for alto sax). You can also select a bass clef for C and Bb instruments.
We provide a collection of free jazz tunes called the "RealSheet Public Domain Jazz Collection".
All of these tunes are in the public domain in the United States because they were first published
in the United States as their country of origin before 1931.
These tunes are also public domain in many other countries, especially in Europe
due to the implementation of "Rule of the Shorter Term".
In the forum you may also find links to other song collections from external sources.

We are jazz enthusiasts and musicians - singers and instrumentalists. We've been dreaming of having a practical collection of lead sheets on our tablets - including melody and lyrics - where we could instantly transpose the tunes to any key. Especially the singers have been asking for the transpose function! We're happy to be part of the global jazz community and contribute to this living culture.
