## unrealBook One Description
unrealBook One is unrealBook that still runs on iOS5 and iPad 1. Get this version if you have an iPad 1 or are running an old version of iOS previous to iOS9. This version also runs un-optimized for iPad Pro - which means menus are larger and the keyboard is larger - some people will like this.
unrealBook allows you to access your entire library of music or lyrics on your iPad with ease. Replace your bulky and heavy binders with a small and light device filled with your music PDF files. The alphabetized and indexed list makes it easy to find the song you are looking for. unrealBook is the answer for the gigging musician!
Please check the reviews. 4.5 stars!!!!!! unrealBook is being used on tour with Billy Joel - see October 2014 Keyboard Magazine!

unrealBook was one of the first apps for displaying music charts on stage. The evolution continues as many musicians use it on stage every day. This product is the result of input from many users. 

Yes, unrealBook supports PDF Table of contents, user created indexes, bookmarks, keywords. You can even convert the PDF table of contents into indexes. It has been able to do these features for a while.

Note: Screenshots are from iOS7/iOS8. unrealBook runs on every iPad, even the iPad 1!

&quot;unrealbook is just an awesome app&quot;
&quot;On gigs people are always asking about it and I am always telling them about unrealBook. Thanks for the great app and the great support. Awesome!&quot;
&quot;Have been using unrealBook in live band set up for a year or so – really useful app my man, thank you.&quot;

## unrealBook One Reviews in United States

### **--- "Unhelpful help section"
I can’t figure out how to import images of songs to unreal books. The help section didn’t even address it
-- eccentric egg hunter, 2025-03-16

### ****- "Bought the wrong one"
Hey, Aaron, I’m trying to set up this app so I can play with my friend but we apparently bought the wrong one. Can I upgrade to the regular UnrealBook app without paying the total for both? There are several UnrealBook apps and they look so similar it is difficult to figure out which one matches my friend’s.

Frustrated

### ***** "Great app"
Difficult to find a good score viewer for outdated software, but this one works like a charm. Well worth the money!
-- Z-Man on Ipad, 2023-06-13

### ***** "Unreal book great so far"
I bought a used iPad pro, 1st gen.. specifically to use on my gigs and was recommended to use Unreal Book to organize all of my charts. So far I’m completely happy. It has changed my life from dragging paper books around. But I can still use my handwritten charts which I generally prefer. I’m a happy camper
-- TBONE... KCD, 2021-05-07

### **--- "Crashed!"
iPad Mini 2 on IOS version 12.3.1.
The APP completely froze requiring me to terminate it manually. Not stable.
-- Dr Y Rocks, 2019-07-17

### ***** "Unreal Book for older iPad"
we are using Unreal Book in iPad one and two to replace more than 3 thick, three-hole punched books of over 100 tunes each.  It was heavy and unwieldy.  Each instrument in our groups had their own set of books which had to be maintained.  We were reluctant to add new tunes.  All this was replaced by Unreal Book. 
      Unreal Book was recommended to us by a friend who has used it for several years with a large horn band.  It works well for us, but the transition has been a bit difficult.  The help doc is very useful, but far from perfect.  And when you have made a mistake, there is not much help there. 
      You can create categories and put relevant tunes in each. For example:  Jazz Tunes, Rock Tunes, W Ceremony, Church, etc. but you can&#039;t do that thru iTunes.  You must do it through Dropbox. 
      The set list feature is great!  You can page forward thru all the tunes in order. You can turn the pages forward and backward with a Bluetooth pedal, such as the Page Turn pedals.  A bit tricky, but it does work pretty well. 
      The app author does answer emails and does try to be helpful, a plus!  
       A few quick points:  sometimes, the download of new tunes does not work until several tries -- Irritating when you have deadlines.  And when you have several iPads to maintain, it&#039;s much easier thru backup and restore thru iTunes than downloads thru Dropbox.   Your music must be pdf files. 
      All in all, a great app and very useful. We depend on it for everything now.
