Sneaky Peek @ Song
The song preview screen lets you peek at what you're about to yeet into your library. It'll either show you the attachment as-is in a song viewer, or flex the chord chart with whatever default styles you've been obsessing over in Oooh La La Settings » Menu Settings » Style Preferences.
Pickin' Your Flavor
If you're totally vibin' with the version that's about to download, tap that Done button & keep it movin'. Nah? Tap the Versions button & go cherry-pick a different attachment to preview. Plot twist: this also changes which version actually gets imported. Srsly.
Import that Sick Backing Track
This pops up if there's audio file(s) hangin' with your song. Flip it on & the song downloads & auto-links to your import like they're meant to be. Got multiple tracks? Tap the Choose button to pick which bop gets linked to your imported chord chart or sheet music. No pressure.
Import Priority (AKA The Algorithm Nobody Asked For)
OnSong will literally just vibe-check & automatically pick whichever version of the song won't make us all look bad during import. Here's the pecking order (yeah, we ranked 'em):
- Chord Charts are text-based & they're the cool kids — preferred over anything else.
- OnSong Archive files are like the Swiss Army knife of songs — they got annotations, styles, & transposition stuff all baked in.
- OnSong Files are straight-up text files in OnSong format. Boring but solid.
- ChordPro Files are text files in ChordPro format. Also boring but solid.
- Plain Text might be OnSong or ChordPro formatted, or just... regular text. It all looks fire anyway.
- Adobe PDF are PDFs made by other apps & we just show 'em as-is. We're not monsters.
- Microsoft Word files also display as-is. See? We're cool with everyone.
- Other Files are basically the stuff we don't vibe with — anything that ain't audio.
- Media Files don't get imported themselves, BUT if you configure it in the bottom toolbar, audio files can tag along with your chord charts. Cool, right?
