Activate and Use the Feature

Open the book cover.

The database, the directory with the files, and the list of entered artists and genres are shared by all books.

Even stronger data separation can be achieved through multi-tenancy with subdirectories. You can find more information on this in the chapter Multi-tenancy with Subdirectories.

Share (Export) Books

With this feature, you can export the contents of a book and transfer it to another SongBook+.

The book will be exported into a .sbkbook file and can be imported back into the target SongBook.

When exporting, you can decide the extent to which the playlist will be exported:

  • Song data without files: The export includes complete song data (title, artist, genre, actions on open/start/stop/close), recorded page turns, finger pointers, annotations,...

  • Complete with linked files The export includes all song data as mentioned above, and additionally, all linked files such as PDF files, audio file(s), MIDI file, video file.

Press “Edit Books”.

Then switch to "Use Multiple Books".

After that, you'll find a list of 15 books on the book cover. If you are not in edit mode, select the desired book here by tapping on it.

Here you can directly change the book titles.

In the menu at the “...” button, you'll find functions for deleting or copying entire books.

You can easily change the book order by dragging the symbol on the right side.

If you want to copy or move an existing song to another book, press and hold the song until a menu with the corresponding options appears.
