I downloaded this app once before and couldn't figure it out once the server screen came up.
Then I read all the terrible reviews and decided it wasn't worth the trouble. But then I decided to spend some time figuring it out and found that this app is really cool. I have a MacBook Air, so I can't actually create or modify songs on the app, but that's fine. Here's what I can do.
I use Mac BIAB to create a BIAB file (MGU or SGU) and render it as an audio file. Then I save/export BOTH files to Dropbox. Thought the IOS app, I download BOTH files (that's the trick - your need both files!).
Now when I select OPEN on the IOS app, the name of the song appears, and I can open it. It sounds great (since it's an MP4) and since the MGU/SGU is open too, the chord changes appear on the screen like they do in the desktop BIAB. So I can now use my iPhone or iPad with my piano and play through songs without having to set up a laptop. There needs to be specific Mac instructions so more people can figure this out. My only complaint about PGmusic is that they are so Windows-centric. But the new BIAB 2016 is fantastic for Mac so I can't complain too much. Kkrekeler, Great App!
