# BandSharp | Frequently asked questions

## Is there really a 90-day free trial?

Yes. Open a band and use every feature for 90 days, no credit card. After that you pick a plan by band size - from $8.90/year. Nothing is charged automatically when the trial ends; to continue, you pay through the payment link in the app's subscription settings.

## What happens when a player joins mid-year?

You add them straight away, and they cost nothing until your renewal date. If the band has grown into the next bracket by then, the new bracket applies at renewal. Billing is for a full year.

## Does it work on stage without internet?

Yes, with no internet at all. BandSharp is a PWA that stores everything on-device - songs, chords and setlists are available even with no signal. The moment you're back online, it all syncs.

## Can I use a chart I already have?

Yes. In the song settings you load a PDF, an image (PNG, JPG or WEBP) or a text file. On stage it opens in the lyrics area, and auto-scroll works on it too, at either speed.

## Does every player need an account?

Each player joins easily via an invite link and gets the band's library. Every player can also keep a personal version of a song, their own font size and display preferences.

## What about a player depping for one night, or a sound engineer?

The band manager sends them a view-only link - without opening an account for them. They see only the setlist or songs chosen for them, read-only, with the recordings. The link locks to the first device that opens it, expires on its own, and can be revoked at any moment. The band's library stays with you.

## Which devices does BandSharp run on?

Any browser: Android, iPad, iPhone, Windows, Mac and Chromebook. Open the address, add it to the home screen, and your songs, chords and setlists are stored on the device and available even without a signal.

## Can I import a song in ChordPro format?

Yes. Paste the text or load a file (cho, chordpro, crd or pro) and the chords land in place. You choose whether the chords go to the chords area or stay with the lyrics, and tab blocks go to the chords area. For an existing song you see a preview before importing, and you can undo it. Afterwards you edit in the chord editor, and on stage each chord shows above its syllable.

## How do I sign a tablet in without typing a password?

On a device that is already signed in, tap your name and choose Open on another device. A QR code appears. Scan it with the tablet camera and the tablet is in. The code works once and lasts five minutes, and in Settings you see every connected device and can disconnect each one.

## Can each player have a personal version?

Yes. In any song tap Personal version and you get your own lyrics and chords that only you see, such as a chorus-only version or chords with your own fingering. In performance mode your version is shown in place of the shared one, and transposing it leaves the rest of the band chords as they are.
