forScore comes packed with an array of features that cater to the modern musician's needs, ensuring their focus remains on the music, not the logistics.

  • Connect: The app allows users to effortlessly import PDFs from other applications or cloud services, ensuring all sheet music is centralized. Whether from Safari, Mail, or popular cloud storage services, synchronization across devices via iCloud is seamless. Sharing scores with colleagues or friends, regardless of their use of forScore, highlights the app’s commitment to collaborative musical endeavors.
  • Organize: Organization is at the heart of forScore, with options to add metadata to scores for easy browsing and instant searchability. Musicians can create smart bookmarks for efficient management of extensive files and manually group scores into setlists for uninterrupted performances.
  • Play: Viewing options are versatile, with full pages in portrait orientation, cropping features for better screen fit, and landscape mode for larger scrolling pages. The innovative Reflow feature adapts music sheets to smaller screens by laying out music systems end-to-end, enhancing readability.
  • Refine: Annotation mode is a game-changer, allowing users to draw, type, or place symbols directly on the music sheets. Annotations can be organized into layers, offering flexibility in how and when they are displayed, further enriching the practice and performance sessions.
  • Simplify: forScore simplifies complex musical scores with features like links and buttons for repeats, page rearrangement, and Bluetooth page turner connectivity for hands-free navigation, making practice sessions and performances more fluid.
  • Extend: The app is not just about reading music; integrated utilities like a metronome, tuner, and a virtual piano keyboard elevate the music-making experience. Linking tracks to scores for playback and recording, along with wireless connectivity for coordinated page turns, showcases forScore’s holistic approach to digital music management.
