ForScore is a great app for saving any type of music chart. Another good app for outlining tunes is One Chart.

TabToolkit. The code base is a little old, they seem to have bought it from the Guitar Pro people, who have a newer version on the app store too, but I like TabToolkit better. Easier to navigate and better use of screen real estate.

The only problem is finding tabs. The best tabs are in gp4 or gp5 format, but I don't have a good source of new ones.

I mainly use: Invalid Link Removed
I recently discovered: Invalid Link Removed

A couple cool things about the app:
- you can change the volume of all the different instruments. I usually just mute the bass
- you can slow down the song so you can learn it
- you can specify if you wanna see notes, tabs, or both

Main drawbacks:
- it synthesizes its own sounds for all the instrument parts, so the music never sounds like the originals
- no voices / singing
- not for creating tabs, it's just for playing them
