Default PC Software like Onsong?

I have Onsong on my ipad, and love it. But, it fills up my storage quickly, and I would love to find PC software to use that is similar to Onsong. I mainly use it for practice, so for me using a pc would be better than a filled up ipad. I know it is going backwards, leaving a tablet to go to a pc, but any software advice is appreciated. Thanks, Mike.

I've used Unreal Book for a while and it does everything, and more, that you specified. Set up set lists, songs are all listed alphabetically, you can search by whatever key words you set up. You can use a Bluetooth page turner to move from song to song or page to page on longer songs.

Hi m-white
I have a friend who is Windows and Android, and I'm Mac/iOS. We both are very involved with music which benefits from using tablets and computers.

I asked him what he uses and he showed me a program called MobileSheets. It is available for both computer and tablet, and can interact between the two. According to him, it is the equivalent of OnSong for PC/Android (he is a computer programmer).

Teams at his church (of over 6000 members) use both depending on their platform of choice.

I looked it up again, and it seems to do what OnSong does for Mac/iOS. It has kept pace with OnSong in capabilities. It does chord-pro as well as text based charts, so it's very similar. Google it (it is a zubersoft dot com program).

It is $12.99 for each version (mobile and computer).

Hope this adds to the discussion.
