Use query search so that pressing back will keep your search term.

in song view - you can scroll side to side or up and down but not both at the same time.

use a more "fixed" positioning of the <article> element - closer to what ratchet does with the .content area by default.

Toolbars:
toolbar for list mode:
back | index | search | favorites (all with text and icon)
nice to haves: back (back carat), expanded menu (down carat)

toolbar for song mode:
back | index (icon) | search (icon) | add to favorites (icon and text) | expanded menu (carat)

Not sure if the initial splash screen is placeholder as we develop, or if this is intended as the default page ongoing, but it seems like we should either use the index page, defaulted to "A" as the default, or we should update the splash screen to make it clear what the user's options are, something like:

• Screen could be red, like the load screen with logo, or white like you have it
• Large button for 'View Songs'
• Another large button below it for "Search"
• Perhaps another large button below it for "About" if you want to have a page/mode

The About page could have a brief description like:

Twitter Bootstrap navbars break on scrolling and whatnot.

Options:

• Use iScroll4
• Ditch bootstrap - use stylus?
• Maybe bootstrap has a JS solution?

Ditch ratchet - simple css

Was noticing on during a couple jams. Text resize would be fairly critical to make the app practical for iPad. ideally two finger zoom, etc.

Option to prevent word wrapping on lyrics.

Instead user will scroll left and right to see entire line if needed.
