Hi,
I am a long time user of ForScore and have recently discovered MobileSheets. I like this software so much more than ForScore that I will be migrating all my music over.
I used MobileSheets for the first time on a gig the other day and the one thing that I missed was displaying the time at the top of the screen (as in ForScore). Is there a way to display the current time on screen?

Thanks for any help.

If you load a score, tap the center to bring up the song overlay, tap the second icon at the bottom left, then "Clock Settings", you can have the clock displayed in one of the corners with the text size and color of your choice.

You can display the time while a song is being displayed but not while you are in one of the library screens (songs, recent, collection or settings).

Display any song
Tap near centre of screen to bring up overlay
2nd icon bottom left (2 hills in a square outline)
Clock Settings
Adjust settings as required (I put mine Bottom Right Corner)

I simply use the system clock...
Given most (all?) screens aren't a true 1.414:1 ratio like A4 (which is the default where I live); but are more like 1.5:1 or 1.6:1 *, there is screen real estate available at the top and bottom that won't affect the aspect ratio of the displayed page.  So I simply leave the Nav bar fully active, don't use full screen mode and don't hide Window Decor.  This has the advantage that it is always visible, not caring whether you are in a song or the library screen &etc..

The only time I can think of where this might be detrimental is if you are displaying 2 pages in landscape, though in testing on my Boox TabX there was no problem.

Of course, this may not suit you which is fine, it just works well for me.

* NB US letter is 1.3:1, as are the now almost defunct slightly larger sizes that printed manuscript used to commonly come in.

Thank you.
