Nashville Numbers App Reviews

I’m new to the Nashville Number system and had been writing charts out by hand. Now that I have others to play with, I’m using this app to make cleaner charts and quickly send them via email. Switching to the letter names is a HUGE feature - perfect for when you have musicians not accustomed to the number system. My only feature request would be text annotations, and the ability to insert a time signature change. Definitely check this one out!

I have a basic understanding of the NNS but the app is usable because the help sparse. I guess it’s supposed to be intuitive but it’s not intuitive for someone like me who’s not totally steeped in NNS. It needs a thorough user guide.

This app was very easy for me to use and begin charting with. Just get in there and start pushing buttons. Very useful…👍🏻👍🏻

Really loved charting with this app, was super fast. Had some problems lining up consecutive lines when the types of chords used are different. Ie if your first line has no accidentals or split bars, if you need those in the following line it shifts where your measures land and is out of sync with the previous line. Had a few Nashville guys tell me this was harder to read because the spots where the measures land kept shifting. Would be awesome to be able to make more specific spacing adjustment

I’ve used this app a little and I like it. I’m not a studio whiz and I don’t use NNS everyday, but iCloud integration would be huge, especially with a true MAC companion app (this version works on my M2 MacBook), so I can work off of whichever device is closest, without having to retype the song. Thanks for this!

In my opinion this is a really good app. Especially for the price. However, I think it needs a line to put the artist. -Lenny

Ive really wanted a NN app for a long time and stumbled on this one. Great idea but charting is taking me so much longer with it. Can only copy/paste by starting a new section and pasting into that new section making the chart look confusing if I for instance just want to copy a 4 bar phrase to use in the same repeating chorus without using repeat signs. Would love to just be able to long press a bar or 2 and paste them wherever I need them. As is it just seems much quicker to chart on paper and

This app is tremendous! I can literally chart on the fly quicker than with pen and paper. The developers have been so responsive in answering my questions. I’m new to NNS, after decades of charting tunes the old way. Thousands of gigs and countless rehearsals later- you CAN teach an old dog new tricks. The system has been a revelation to me, and the app has depth and simplicity at the same time. That’s a lot to ask. This app would be a bargain at 5 times the price! Congrats!

Really great app, just missing a couple of features that would make it perfect. Please add more traditional notation on the second page! Would love to be able to write rhythmic notation above a Nashville number. Quarters and eighth notes (dotted and undotted) and triplets would be awesome and so helpful to include in more rhythmically complex songs. Thanks!
