Does the app include the tunes?

No. You import PDFs you own or are licensed to use.

Can I make a set of just standards?

Yes, use a setlist per gig or per band.

StageMate reads PDFs, so transposition is not automatic — annotate the key instead.

App comparisons & alternatives

Reading standards from a Real Book on iPad

Most standards are one or two pages, which makes searching the bottleneck rather than turning. When someone calls a tune, the app has to find it before the count-in.

Search by tune name

Automatic title extraction means the index matches how tunes are called on the bandstand, not the filename of the scan.

Keys and cuts, written down

Annotate the key you actually play it in, the intro, and the out head. Those notes are worth more than the chart itself six months later.

Turning mid-solo

On a two-page chart the turn lands during someone's solo. A blink handles it without your hands leaving the instrument.

Try it on your own scores

Import PDF scores, add annotations, build setlists and turn pages hands-free. StageMate is available for Apple devices and Android. Features, cloud services and Pro purchases differ by platform; check the current plan before buying.
