Add a song
On the Songs page, tap the ➕ plus icon.
Start typing in the name of the song. You can create a new song or search for songs using Popular Recordings or All Songs.
Popular Recordings allows you to search the RehearsalMix database for popular song recordings. You can click on the album art or play a preview clip for a song to determine if this is the version of the song that you want. When you select a song from the Popular Recordings list, the information will be pre-filled for your chosen arrangement.
All Songs allows you to search for all songs in the CCLI SongSelect database.
Once you've selected the song or entered a new song title, update the arrangement information, such as time length, BPM, and meter.
Choose a starting key, end key, and alternate keys as necessary.
(Optional) Use the toggles to import from RehearsalPack, SongSelect, PraiseCharts, or RehearsalMix if you have those services enabled in your Planning Center account.
Tap Next in the top right corner.
Edit the song and arrangement tags, and then tap Save to complete adding the song to your library.
