Is there a native smartphone app?No, there isn't. And I have no plans to create a native app.
That would be a lot of extra work, and I'm not making money from this project. And I love to spend most of my spare time making music myself. Naturally :-)
Is there an API?No, at the moment there is no real API but I am definitely working towards it. As I myself run into limitations. Haven’t considered an API first approach back in the days. Shame on me ;-)
But, don’t expect it any time soon.
Is this open source? Is there a github repo?No, there is no public repo.
I'm a developer, can I contribute?Thank you for offering your support. Much appreciated.
But at the moment I have no intend to open the development of this website for collaboration. That would require a lot overhead work with discussing features and merging code. And above all, I want this to remain my personal fun project.
But of course, if you got ideas for enhancements that will be greatly appreciated.

Can I add lyrics to my chord sheets?No, not really. The purpose of this tool is to create sheets with just the chord progressions.
You could add lyrics as simple text lines. But it is hard to relate the words with the changes.
Have a look at the ChordPro format. It might be better suited to your needs.
