How to join a chorus
To join a chorus you'll first need a chorus code. This code is specific to every chorus folder and can be found by any member of the folder by opening the chorus folder and pressing the ••• next to the chorus name in the top bar of the app. This will open the chorus folder info screen where the code is visiable.
When you have the code you can send a join request by pressing the "Join" button in the Library screen, putting in the code and then pressing "send request" (Remember that the code is case sensitive).
Your chorus director or any admin of the folder will need to approve your request before you see the folder and can access and start rehearsing the songs.
How to rehearse a song
- log in to your account
- Select Chorus folder (By pressing the name of the chorus)
- Select Song (by pressing the name if the song)
- Select your part/track by first pressing the “mute all button” and then unmuting your part/track
- You can add in the other parts/tracks by unmuting them later.
- When your done rehearsing your selected song, press the back button in the top right corner.

How to share songs with others
First you need to get a PRO account to create new choruses and to add members. To create your own chorus folder, press the "Create" button under my choruses next to "Join" in the library screen. Fill in the details for your new Chorus folder and press save. After that, there are two ways to invite members.
Many members
This way is most suitable when inviting many members, or you don't have their email addresses.
- If you've already saved your chorus, open your chorus folder and press the ••• in the top right corner of the screen.
- On top of the screen you'll see a short Chorus Code which directs to this specific chorus. Share it with your friends (e.g. write it on the whiteboard, or post it to your Facebook group) and they can enter it in their app with the Join button.
- In this same screen all who have entered your code into their apps will come up. Accept them to let them rehearse your songs.
Few members
This can also be used when filling out chorus info in the creation step. This way is most suitable when inviting very few members and you already have their email addresses.
- If you've already saved your chorus, open your chorus folder and press the ••• in the top right corner of the screen.
- Invite your members by entering their email-addresses.
(Please note that the person will not get an actual email. This only invites the ChorusClass account that uses the email address. If the person creates a ChorusClass account with that email AFTER you've invited them, they will become a member automatically.)
