- Tune recognition runs on the device; personal tunes and sets stay in that browser and can be transferred as ABC files.
Field notes
The listening view surfaces recent detected notes and candidate tunes, and includes a control to copy a debug log. Personal tunes can be added from ABC files or pasted text, then grouped into sets; a tune may belong to more than one set. The page says those collections remain in the current browser and can be exported, while detection settings are marked experimental.
