A gigging musician should know the tunes, period.
If she doesn't, she'll have better options with a small pentagrammed notebook than with a cramped screen with chords, lyrics and melody (even with ipad)...
Keep it simple.
My two cents from an enthusiastic fan of iRb and Massimo and staff's work.
I totally agree and very much appreciate the deliberate effort Massimo and staff have made to keep things simple. The numbered notation app I wrote last Christmas is completely separate from iReal b but still allows import/export. Often a few notes of the melody are handy like you say. But on stage you've got to know your songs.
