SongBook+ dumb questions

How can I purchase the full Songbook+ app and what will it cost?

I'd always heard there was a free demo available, which one could upgrade to the full app by paying. But in the App Store I only see "SongBook" (not Songbook+"), and it's $17.99 for version 3.3.2.

Meanwhile, when I googled "SongBook+" I got this App Store "preview" which shows version 3.4.3 as free (with paid upgrade options)...but there's no way to order it!

3.4.3 is the most recent version of Songbook+

You need to be on an iPad to order it, as that's the only hardware it supports.

Thanks, Fred. I was curious as to why the + version of the App didn't even show up in the App Store.
I'll check from an iPad later.

Hi VilleGuy,

there is only ONE "Songbook+" app (also written "Songbook +") in the App Store:

The app can be downloaded/installed for FREE, and at first it works as a DEMO version. You can buy the FULL version with an "in-app purchase", inside the app.


P.S.
A few years ago, there were TWO versions of the app (Demo and Full version separately). This old DEMO Version is still working on my iPad4 with iOS 10, but it is no longer available in the App Store. (I have also installed the latest FULL version, of course.)


Best regards,
Chris

Thank you very much, Chris. The problem seems to be that I was checking the App Store from my Mac desktop computer, and as a result the store did not display Songbook+.

Instead it displayed an app called just Songbook ($17.99), which must be a chords-and-lyrics organizer for desktop use.

I'm checking the App Store with my iPad now and Songbook+ is available for download - which I will soon do.

Just wondering - what does the full version of Songbook+ cost?

Thanks again.

Hi VilleGuy,

may be you did a search only for "iPhone" apps in App Store on your Mac computer. Because "Songbook+" is for "iPad" only, the app would not be displayed then.

On my iPad (with iOS 10), I  have to select "iPad only" in the upper left corner in App Store to can find the app.

In the German App Store, the price for the activation of the full version is € 49.99 (as an in-app purchase).

Note: There is also a payment method with subscription (in German "Abo"): Touch on the ••• symbol, then on "SongBook Sponsoring" and then on the "Bronze Medal". Here you can make subscription for (in Germany) € 0.99 per month.


Best regards,
Chris
