Song Hive

Song Hive is the personal music library and practice companion for the songs you actually play.

If you've ever opened a notebook, a Google Doc, a pile of chord PDFs, and an Apple Note to dig up a song you learned last year, this is for you. Song Hive keeps every song in one place, tracks how well you know it, and tells you what to practise next so the ones you half-know don't quietly slip away.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Build a repertoire that sticks
- Chords, lyrics, and personal notes for every song
- Tag by band, genre, gig, or any category that fits how you think
- Search, sort, and browse your whole library at a glance

Stop forgetting songs you learned
- Rate lyrics and music familiarity separately on a 0–5 scale
- Spaced-repetition scheduling surfaces the songs that need you most
- Instrumentalists can switch the lyrics axis off; vocalists can hide music
- A forecast calendar shows the weeks ahead

Practice sessions that play themselves
- Tap start and Song Hive sweeps you through what's due, full-screen
- Each song opens to the right tab at your saved font size and scroll speed
- Rate when you're done; tomorrow's list updates automatically
- The Practice Randomiser picks a song at any familiarity level you choose

Set lists for every gig
- Drag to reorder; pick chords, lyrics, or notes per song
- Import a set from a public Spotify playlist or album URL
- Perform mode: full-screen, swipe between songs with a counter
- Practice mode: rehearse the whole gig end-to-end with ratings as you go
- AirDrop a set to a bandmate — Song Hive merges it without overwriting their edits

Hands-free on stage
- Pinch-to-zoom font sizing from 8pt to 40pt, remembered per song
- Auto-scroll from 0.25x to 4x, saved per song
- Keep-screen-awake for a dedicated teleprompter feel

Daily reminders that work
- As many schedules as you need, with per-day toggles and per-schedule session size
- Tap the notification and land straight inside a practice session

Your library, everywhere
- iCloud sync keeps songs, set lists, tags, familiarity, and practice history in lockstep across iPhone and iPad
