Filter Your View

Click the filter options to narrow things down:

• Tags - Show only Christmas songs, Easter songs, etc.

Star Your Favorites

See that star icon next to each song? Click it.

Starred songs show up in the Favorites tab. Perfect when you're building a set and want quick access to your go-to songs.

View Your Contributions

The My Songs tab shows only the songs you've added to the space. Handy for tracking what you've contributed or reviewing your recent additions.

Import Your Existing Songs

Already have a song library? Bring it in:

1. Look for the import area
2. Drag and drop your files
3. Song7 accepts:
   • ChordPro files (.cho)
   • Text files (.txt)
   • JSON files (.json)

Song7 processes them and adds them to your library.

Tip: Test with one file first to make sure the format works, then batch import the rest.

Export for Backup

Keep a backup or share with others:

1. Find the export option
2. Choose your format:
   • ChordPro - Works with other music software
   • Text - Simple, universal format
   • JSON - Best for re-importing to Song7
3. Download and save

Song Options

Click the menu (three dots) on any song to:

• Edit - Update lyrics, chords, or details
• Delete - Remove from the library
• Add to Space - Copy to another space where you're an editor

Adding New Songs

Click Create New and you're off. See the detailed guide on creating songs for formatting tips.

Sheet Music & Notation

Each song can also carry attachments (PDF or image charts) and MusicXML notation (engraved staff notation rendered in the app, with transpose). Add them while editing a song — see Attachments & notation.

Keep It Organized

Use tags wisely - Tag songs by season, theme, tempo, difficulty, or whatever helps you find them later.

Regular cleanup - Fix typos when you spot them, update chords if they're wrong, remove songs you never use.

Backup regularly - Export your library every so often. Better safe than sorry.

Quick Tips

Creating a set? Use the Favorites tab to quickly add your most-used songs.

Can't find a song? Try searching for a phrase from the lyrics.
