About Nashville Numbers
Music notation is made simple with this shorthand system which puts chords into numbers 1 though 7 and streamlines the page into a simple and clean format. Forget about pencil, erasers and photocopy! This app combines technology with tried and tested methods; allowing users to create song charts with the ease and speed of pen and paper. For over 60 years, the Nashville Number System has been the standard for musicians in live performance, recording sessions, and teaching environments. The published book has become required reading in many of the most prestigious music schools, including Belmont, ETSU, Lee and Liberty University, while also being required reading for anyone when they get their first gig in music city. This innovative app brings the must-read instructional book by Chas Williams, with well over 50,000 copies sold, into our digital age by seamlessly allowing charts to be written on your digital device! Please give feedback of a 5 star review, or contact us directly. If you’re not happy with the app, we will issue a full refund of your purchase price (in exchange for not writing a bad review) and insure your issues are reviewed and fixed. You can keep your version and be notified when an update has been made. Thank you for your business. My name is Leland and I’m on the development team along with Chas. My personal email is [email protected] so you can contact me with issues or great musical stories! Chart Everything My Friends!!!

Song library Search every song across all your folders at once Song files are now named after their titles Select several songs and drag them into a folder together, or drop them on New Folder to make one Arrange songs in any folder in your own order, or switch to alphabetical Alphabetical sorting now ignores capital letters and orders numbers naturally (“Song 2” before “Song 10”) Folder breadcrumbs scroll to where you are, so you can nest folders as deep as you like Charts New View Mode: a clean, read-only chart, and you can swipe between the songs in a folder Charts lay out the same on iPhone and iPad, so drawings line up on every device On iPhone, charts open sized to fit the screen’s width Lay a chart out in 1, 2 or 3 columns with one tap, and drag to choose where a column breaks New toolbar on the right with zoom, fit-to-screen and column controls; it slides out of the way when you don’t need it Tap a section label to edit sections from the toolbar: move, insert, duplicate, copy, paste or delete Quick-pick section names (Intro, Verse, Chorus, and more) while renaming a section New chord options: X chords, multiple tensions per chord, and cleaner diamonds, ties and repeat signs Drawing and export Draw anywhere on the page, not just over the chord charts Adjustable eraser size Drawing colors are saved correctly PDF export includes your drawings and handles long or wide charts Fixes On iOS 26, a pen stroke that started toward the right could close the chart; fixed in 1.16
