## Drillbook Next Description
Marching band and drum corps drill at your fingertips. See how every count and every set fits into your marching show.  Add Pyware™, EnVision™ or Field Artist 3™ coordinate sheets or create shows on your device. Tap an existing show to follow. It&#039;s that easy. 

&quot;Game Changer - This app is one of the most amazing tools I have used in my years of teaching marching band. So much you can do with it, no more carrying around paper charts trying to explain what a move should look like, students can watch, step-by-step, and see their coordinates the entire way. A total game changer for my band!&quot; - SHS Drumline

&quot;Simply the best drillbook app on the App Store - As a band director, I&#039;ve fallen victim to carrying around the &quot;large binder of charts&quot; that the profession demands. Not any more!! Upon seeing what this app can offer, it&#039;s well worth the price, both for students and directors. Seeing every dot on the field in motion and, at any time, having the ability to click on a member and see their dot book coordinate is a massive timesaver and makes rehearsals infinitely more efficient.&quot; - NBRFWooo!

&quot;Wonderful tool for drill - Beautiful, well polished, feature rich, prefect for quickly knowing what the drill should look like and the exact coordinates for any student.&quot; - Wooky

&quot;This is the best app for reading drill - I seriously can&#039;t say enough about how well this app works. Uploading a show is simple, it updates easily, it&#039;s excellent and the developer is very responsive to issues.&quot; - Roskoski

## Drillbook Next Reviews in United States

### ****- "No longer works"
Been using this app since 2017, sad to see the app hasn’t been updated in 9 years because it does (did) work well! Up until today, when you try to open, it crashes within one second. iOS 17.1.1 iPhone 13 Pro
-- Mmmwwwaaaahhhhaaaahhhhaaahhhhaa, 2024-09-02

### *---- "Crashes often"
I paid ten dollars for an app that continually crashes.
-- Tcdragonfly, 2019-05-13

### ***** "A GREAT resource!"
I have been using this app as a band director of a competitive marching band for three years. It has proven to be an invaluable tool in making our groups better. I highly recommend!
-- FC Bands, 2018-10-11

### *---- "Once was great but now appears to be abandoned"
I have owned the app for a few years now and when it was working it was fantastic. Now I am running iOS 11 on an iPad pro and it will not open coordinate sheets from Pyware. The app developer’s Facebook page doesn’t appear to have been updated for a year. I am incredibly disappointed because this app was truly game changing when it did what it was designed to do.  I loved the animation features it provided over carrying three ring binders full of charts.
-- Bandguy2014, 2018-07-04

### ***** ":)"
Incredible app! 5/5 for sure, I love it!!
-- WOW Fanatic, 2017-03-30

### *---- "Desperately needs bug fixes"
Can&#039;t publish a show to other devices - staff and students rendering the app pointless. Was great prior - Not compatible with IOS 10
-- veepam, 2016-10-16

### *---- "Buyer beware...."
So much great potential with this app, but efforts to get a response from &quot;support&quot; are futile.  

iOS 9 had some bugs in rendering Pyware coordinate sheets, but it was something I tweaked on my own because the end result was worth it.

Now with iOS 10, I can&#039;t even import a show.  I have 2/3s of our field show on the app and need to use a traditional drill book for the closer.

A real shame because this app was proving to be quite useful....
-- ChaddyT, 2016-09-22

### ****- "Outstanding Drill App"
Great for viewing and cleaning drill! I wish there was a better way to enter instructions and sync across devices.
-- burhocky, 2016-08-16

### ***** "Best drill cleaning app ever!"
-The app is very accessible for band directors to find a performer&#039;s spot right away, share their coordinate with them if they need it and where their midpoint is if you&#039;re cleaning it in that fashion.

-The app is also good for having performers &quot;be props&quot; so you know your stage in advance and the kids know where to go without &quot;hitting&quot; any stage designed props. (Tip for band directors: have your drill writer write coordinates for props in your drill and this app plugs those prop locations in!)

-This app is the perfect cleaning drill app for a band director who doesn&#039;t need to run around the field, but stand up on his/her band tower with their long ranger! 

-The &quot;by the counts&quot; feature is great for pass-throughs, midpoint drills, and rotation of forms. 

-You can also showcase this drill app by projecting it with your iPad (with proper cables) and show every performer their spot (highlighted by touch screen) throughout the whole show. I have shown my students where their spot is throughout the show when I&#039;m down on the field cleaning drill and it really helps!
-- Mtrombonec, 2015-05-18

### ***** "Great app!"
I&#039;ve been using this app with my college marching band as a section leader. It&#039;s a great tool to have on the field for section leaders, staff, and directors. Once you have drill loaded up you can watch drill animation, be able to find any dot on the field, and even customize the field!
I think the only thing that I would like to see different is be able to customize the color of the main field not just the endzones.
