Songward

The musician’s pocket studio

Toward the song.

Every tool a song needs to travel from the first hummed idea to the setlist on stage — writing, demos, and the gig itself, in one quiet place.

The Windows app is a companion — it unlocks with the account from your Android phone.

One road

A song is written at midnight, rehearsed in the kitchen, and proved on a Friday night stage. Songward is one road through all of it.

Four connected rooms — Write, Studio, Live and the Toolbox — so an idea can travel all the way to the stage without ever leaving the app, with the right instrument always within reach.

CH.01 Write

Begin where it hums.

Lyrics with the chords above the words, the way songwriters actually work. Craft tools that stay out of your voice — and versions of every lyric, so no good line is ever lost to a better one.

  • Rhymes in seven languages, syllable matching between verses
  • In-key chord suggestions
  • Hands-free voice dictation
  • Drag sections into a new order
  • Lyric versions & co-writer splits
  • Your songs and covers, side by side

CH.02 Studio

Catch it before it escapes.

Hum the idea, then build it into a demo, layer by layer. Count-in and click, punch-in to drop a new part anywhere — and re-recording keeps your previous take, so a good pass is never lost to a worse retry.

  • Layered demo recording
  • Generated drum loops & bass lines in the Loop Lab
  • Per-layer volume, pan & effects rack
  • One-tap Enhance & master polish
  • Timeline with snapping loop markers
  • Export a shareable M4A or lossless WAV

CH.03 Live

Then go play it.

Setlists as real gigs — date, venue, pay, rating. On stage the phone goes hands-free: auto-scroll, transpose, Nashville numbers, a foot pedal if you use one, and a blackout clock between songs.

  • Hands-free stage mode with auto-scroll
  • Transpose & Nashville numbers
  • Foot-pedal support & per-song cues
  • Prep checklists & rehearsal mode
  • Earnings tracking, gig by gig
  • Share a set as text, QR or PDF

CH.04 Toolbox

The whole gig bag, in one place.

Fifteen small instruments that live in your pocket — like the back of a record, every one earns its track. They ride along in the other three rooms too: a rhyme while you write, a tuner between songs.

Plans

The song comes first.

Free · forever

Free, to write and to play.

Not a demo and not a countdown — the whole road, from the first idea to a Friday night, with room to grow into.

  • Unlimited songs — lyrics, chords, concepts & audio snippets
  • All 15 tools open — not one of them sits behind the paywall: tuner, metronome, rhymes in 7 languages, Hum Capture, Loop Lab, Jam Pad and the rest
  • The hands-free stage — two gigs on the books at a time, and finishing a night frees its slot: auto-scroll, Nashville numbers, foot pedal & the printed songbook
  • Studio: 3 demos of up to 4 layers each, export included
  • Cloud backup of all your writing, 30-day trash

Whatever you make is always yours.

Pro · monthly, yearly, or yours for life

Pro, for the road.

Pick a monthly or yearly plan — or one payment that’s yours forever. Every plan unlocks the same thing: more of it, and deeper.

  • Unlimited gigs & reusable setlist templates — build a set once, start any night from it
  • The books behind the shows — what each night pays, who still owes you, how it went, and the totals across your year
  • The whole Studio — unlimited demos & layers, the effects rack with one-tap Enhance, punch-in re-recording
  • Practice depth — Loop Lab song sections & custom grids, your own Jam Pad progressions, chords by quality in ear training
  • Every instrument & alternate tuning, the metronome trainers, the chord recogniser and all the voice warm-ups
  • Six premium themes, and sync across devices — start a verse on the phone, finish it on the computer
