Foot pedals that simulate an external keyboard
SongBook+ supports all foot pedals that simulate an external keyboard and can send one or more of the following keys:

For this type of foot pedal to work, the function "Keyboard Control" in "Keyboards & Text Input" under "Accessibility" on the iPad or iPhone must be turned off in the settings.
Otherwise, the operating system uses some of the pressed keys for itself, and then SongBook+ can no longer react to it.

In the settings, you can activate the use of foot pedals and assign the keys the following actions, among others:
Do nothing
One page forward/backward
Press the start/stop/pause/resume button
Jump to the next song
Return to the song list
Open song selection list
Start/pause/resume scrolling
Faster/slower scrolling
A whole/half/third/quarter page forward or backward
Toggle autoplay on/off
Start/stop the metronome
Play jingles
Toggle loops on/off
Trigger all function buttons on the current page
Trigger specific function buttons on the current page
Trigger one function button after another on the current page
Adjust the device volume (louder, quieter)
Activate the search field and set the cursor in the field
Trigger MIDI macros
...
In the Midi and Bluetooth Monitor, you can see which keys your foot pedal sends.
