syncMNFST is a real-time setlist and sheet-music app for live bands. Change songs mid-set and every player's iPad follows instantly, fully offline.

After 20 years on stage I built syncMNFST around what should be obvious from one glance. Not a database, not a webapp that needs three reloads — just the same downbeat for the whole band.
Pick what fits your band. The first 20 get founder pricing on their first year — and founding band status that stays.
The bandleader taps the new song on their iPad. In a fraction of a second, every band member's iPad jumps to that song — already showing their own role-specific chart. No "wait, what page?", no shuffling, no missed cue.
Yes. iPads connect directly to each other, like AirDrop, for following the master iPad (bandleader). No venue WiFi, no internet, no cellular signal needed during the show. For bigger lineups or wide stages, adding a simple local router (still no internet) keeps things rock-solid.
Yes. Upload PDFs and assign different versions per role — so the bassist sees the bass chart while the guitarist sees chords. Your existing chart library comes with you. Charts are stored on syncMNFST's own backend — no storage limits, no add-on tiers, and nothing depending on a separate cloud account.
Any iPad running iPadOS 17 or newer. That includes most iPads from 2019 onward — iPad, iPad Air, iPad Pro, and iPad mini.
Yes, on the Pro plan. syncMNFST connects to your Google Calendar and keeps your gigs in sync both ways: gigs you add in syncMNFST appear in Google Calendar, and events from Google Calendar come into syncMNFST. From there you attach a setlist to each gig. It's optional, off by default, and you can disconnect anytime.
syncMNFST starts with the moment that matters most: getting your band on the same song, instantly, with role-specific charts. On the roadmap: band management (rehearsals, gigs, rosters), extended calendar features, and MIDI integration. Priorities shift based on what working bands actually need — early adopters help shape what gets built first.
