The idea behind it is simple: all the world's sheet music, right there in your hands.\n\nIt takes on the everyday problems every performer knows too well. No more hauling a bag of heavy binders to rehearsal, and no more digging through piles of paper for the one piece you need.\n\n\n** Features **\n: Annotate freely\nSix pens, each with its own color, thickness and nib, let you mark up a score exactly as you would on paper. Stamps for dynamics and other symbols, plus text boxes, make annotating quick.\n\n: Smart browsing\nOur own rendering engine gives you page turns among the fastest anywhere. Jump straight to the first or last page, preview a page before you turn to it, and crop pages to enlarge the staves for easier reading. Password-protected PDFs are supported.\n\n: Automatic vertical scrolling and half-page turns\nLet the score scroll by itself and forget about turning pages altogether. The scrolling speed is yours to set.\n\n: Over 130,000 classical scores to download for free\nPiascore connects to IMSLP (the International Music Score Library Project) / Petrucci Music Library, so you can download 131,000 public domain works by 16,200 composers, free of charge.\n\n: Plenty of ways to bring in your own scores\nPiascore reads PDF files. Transfer your own scores over iTunes File Sharing, import them from Dropbox, photograph printed music with the camera, or download a score you found in Safari.\n\n: Easy library management\nTags and setlists keep even a large library in order, with powerful sorting and keyword search.\n\n: Metronome\nA metronome with a natural, realistic sound to keep your daily practice on track.\n\n: Piascore music tools\nEverything a musician needs beside the score: a keyboard, a chromatic tuner, a music player (iTunes) and a voice recorder.\n\n: Custom covers\nUse a photo or any image you like to give each score its own cover.\n\n: Editable table of contents\nBuild your own table of contents, or import one from the PDF.\n\n: Reorder pages, jump between them\nPut the pages in whatever order suits you. For repeats, D.S. and the like, place a jump button on the page and go straight where the music takes you.\n\n: Export your scores\nPrint an annotated score over AirPrint, or send it by email.\n\n: The Piascore Store\nClassical works, folk songs and easy arrangements, all in one store. Search by genre or by artist and find that piece you have been looking for.\n\n: Air Page Turning (iPhone required)\nPair an iPhone running the companion app \"Piascore Air\" and turn pages more easily than ever, without touching the screen at all.\n\n: AirTurn Bluetooth pedal support\nConnect an AirTurn pedal and turn pages with your foot.\n\n\n** Praise **\n\"This is a sheet music viewer that is genuinely worth having\" - GRAMOPHONE\n\"Very easy to use, a beautiful sound library\" - appPicker\n\"The most wonderful and convenient music sheet viewer you can't miss!\" - Best10Apps.com\n\"Impressed with the outstanding visibility!\" - AppBank\n\n\n** Award **\n: 2011 International Business Awards - Consumer Entertainment / Information (Distinguished Honoree)\n: 2012 4th SF NewTech Japan Night Winner\n\n\n** FAQ **\n: https://help.piascore.com/\n\n\n** Contact **\n: https://piascore.com/\n: support@piascore.com","facts":{"developer_id":406133802,"developer_url":"https://piascore.com/","first_released":"2010-12-03T04:48:22Z","support_url":"https://piascore.com/","privacy_url":"https://piascore.com/privacy/","website_url":"https://piascore.com/","app_version":"7.0.9","release_notes":"New Features\n• When a setlist is open, its songs now appear as tabs below the top bar tabs. Tap a song to jump straight to it.\n\nImprovements\n• Score tabs in the top bar are easier to read. On iPhone, only one tab is shown so the score title fits, and tab thumbnails and text are now more compact.\n\nBug Fixes\n• Fixed an issue where the bookmark editor closed right after opening, so notes could not be edited.\n• Fixed an issue where sending the same PDF to Piascore from another app added it again as \"Name 2\", \"Name 3\", etc., even when set to overwrite.\n• Fixed an issue where some downloaded Apple Music songs would not play in the audio player.\n• Fixed an issue where the setlist list could freeze for several seconds when opened or when switching tabs.\n• Fixed an issue where the \"Adjust Page\" and \"Page\" popovers would not open when tapped repeatedly right after closing a popover.\n\nThank you for using Piascore. We would love to hear your feedback through in-app support.","rating_current_version":4.64612,"rating_count_current_version":1882,"star_counts":[65,31,47,217,1518],"genres":["Music","Education"],"languages":["CA","CS","DA","NL","EN","FI","FR","DE","EL","HE","HU","IT","JA","KO","NB","PL","PT","RO","RU","ZH","SK","ES","SV","TH","ZH","TR"],"content_advisories":null,"device_families":["iphone","ipad"],"made_for_iphone_duo":null,"chart":null},"freshness":{"apple_read_at":"2026-10-22T08:25:12.799Z","catalog_read_at":"2026-10-20T02:26:11.537Z","reviews_checked_at":null,"summary_written_at":"2026-10-22T08:27:14.599Z","placed_at":"2026-10-22T01:02:13.025Z","scored_at":"2026-10-24T10:12:12.959Z"},"editorial":{"one_liner":"Digital sheet music reader for iPad and iPhone with annotation, PDF import, a metronome and free IMSLP downloads.","what_is":"Piascore is a sheet music reader for iPad and iPhone, aimed at pianists, guitarists and other musicians who play from a score.
