Original release notes

You can see what's in here now — and there's more of it.

• Browse all 1,026 built-in songs by genre or by artist. Search looks through the whole catalog now, not just the songs you'd already added.
• The chord library is sorted by family — major, minor, dominant, diminished, suspended and the rest — with each one waiting at all twelve roots. 168 chords in total.
• The modes of harmonic and melodic minor have landed, bringing the scale library to 70. And you can build your own scale a note at a time and keep it alongside the rest.
• The tuner now knows 5-string B–G and E–C, the custom editor handles four, five or six strings, and the tunings you save stay in a library.
• Routines no longer opens empty — three ready-made sessions are waiting.
• Settings can write your practice log, routines, progressions and saved setups to one file, and read it back on a new phone. It all stays on your device.
• A Send feedback row in Settings writes the mail for you, with your version and device already filled in.

Plus fixes throughout.
