Hi,
I really like this app.
One thing would be great:
A history, when the Score was last played.
Maybe it would be nice, if you create a message, when leaving a score that asks for updating the the last played date. Cool would be, if you have a chance to choose "rehearsal" or "gig" or "cancel"
Regards,
Stephan

Not at all.
I would like to see a date for last played.
I'm playing in a orchestra with a lot of scores.
And I am the score keeper. So sometimes it is really interesting to know, when a song was last played

I've been doing this using setlists. When I make a setlist, I include the performance date in the setlist name. After the performance I put a 'z' at the front of the setlist name (so it ends up at the end of the list of setlists). Yes it means that there can be a lot of setlists but the old ones also aren't in the way.

Re renaming set lists, I do something similar:-
I use the following format for the set list name "grouporvenue yyyy-mm-dd" e.g. "Uke Jam 2021-08-25".
To keep this set list at the top of the displayed list, I precede this name with a space character (sometimes more than one).
After the event, I rename the list without the leading space(s). This keeps the "imminent" set lists at the top while maintaining a history of the previous set lists in an indexable list.
While this handles set lists, I suspect it doesn't do what you would really like - a date on each song (to help you decide which songs to select for the next meet).
I doubt that there is an easy way to do this as everyone would have different requirements e.g. when last played, last 5 (say) previous plays, frequency, which group (for shared songs) etc

There isn't an automatic way (yet) I know of which I assume is what you want.
But if I wanted to do that I'd probably use one of the (as of yet) 2 custom fields to fill in the date like "20210901" (batch edit a whole collection or setlist if needed) and sort it by custom field in the song list. Also I would include the custom field in the title with the title_format function to see the date.

I'm going to have to add additional fields to the database to track this kind of information, as I don't currently save it anywhere. I'll probably work on adding metrics to the application so users can know how many times they've played a score, when they last played it how long they were viewing it, how much have they viewed it over a time period, etc. This is not going to be something I can quickly add though, and it also means metric will only be gathered from the time I release the update onward. I can't gather metrics from the past as that information isn't available.
