Read without interruptions

Pages are ready the moment you open a score: they turn instantly, without flicker, and white margins are cropped automatically.

Tap the edge to turn the page, or the center to show the toolbars. The page fills the whole screen.

The top half already shows the next page while you finish reading the bottom half, so you're never left without music.

Colors are inverted for reading in the dark, in the orchestra pit or on a dimly lit stage.

A warm background that's easier on the eyes during long sessions. There's a Sepia option too.

Write on the score

Pen, pencil, highlighter, shapes, text and music symbols. Markings are vector-based, sharp at any zoom level, and saved automatically.

With Apple Pencil you can start writing right away; double-tap to switch to the eraser.
Separate layers: hide or delete a group of markings without touching the rest.
Dynamics, accidentals, breath marks and fingerings in the Bravura font.

Practice tools, built in

Metronome, tuner, recorder, piano and audio player open right on top of the score. No switching apps.

Metronome

A ring with one segment per beat. Set accents with a tap, use tap tempo, and build sequences, even from MIDI files.

Tuner

A dial from −50 to +50 cents, notes turn green within ±5 cents, A = 415–466 Hz, and support for transposing instruments.

Drone, scales and chords

An organ drone on the tonic, scales at the tempo you choose, and just-intonation chords for intonation work.

Piano and pads

Piano, strings, organ and choir on a multi-touch keyboard above the page.

Audio

Backing tracks and recordings: change the speed without changing the pitch, transpose ±12 semitones, loop from A to B.

Record and analyze

Live waveform and note-by-note intonation analysis.

Breathing

Six guided breathing exercises to use before you go on stage.

Goals and reports

Minutes practiced, practice streaks, weekly and per-piece goals, and milestones.

Staff paper

Piano, string quartet, guitar tab and other templates, all with Bravura clefs.

Know how in tune you really are

Record a passage and look at the analysis: the percentage of time within ±10 cents, how it changes over the take, and the notes that need work. Compare two takes to see if you're improving.

Ready for the stage

Setlists with the right pages and hands-free page turns.

Setlists

At the end of a piece, one tap takes you to the next one, already loaded. Set a page range for each piece and send the setlist with all its files.

Hands-free

When your hands are on your instrument, there are other ways to turn the page.

Share without losing control

Protected sharing creates a file that only opens in StaffScore. Send it by AirDrop, email or WhatsApp; it can be read with no account, no server and no internet connection.

ExpiryFrom 1 hour to 30 days, or a date of your choice

WatermarkDocument ID and time opened

Read-onlyNo exporting, printing or copying

AES-256-GCMEncrypted and authenticated content

It keeps the file out of PDF readers and guards against tampering. It can't stop someone who reverse-engineers the app to extract the key, and a single screenshot can't be blocked, but the app detects and flags it.
