## What is Barline?

Master it bar by bar.

Barline turns a page of sheet music into something you can actually practise. Photograph the page or import a PDF, pick guitar, ukulele or bass, and start playing — with tab under every staff and a player built for someone whose hands are on the fretboard and whose eyes are on the music.

SCAN ANY SHEET MUSIC, GET TAB
A photo, a PDF or a MusicXML file becomes a score you can hear, loop and slow down — with tablature written under the notation, fingered for your instrument and tuning. Recognition is never perfect, so Barline shows you the bars it was unsure about and lets you hear each one before you fix it. A page it cannot read is refunded automatically.

LOOP IN TWO TAPS
Tap the first bar, tap the last bar, and the loop is set. Long-press a bar to start or end a loop there, or to practise that single bar. Tap anywhere on the score to play or pause — nobody has to aim.

A TEMPO RAMP THAT DOES WHAT A TEACHER DOES
Start slow. Every time the loop comes back clean, Barline adds 5 BPM. Tempo is always in BPM, never a percentage, and a pass counts as clean only when you played it end to end without stopping.

LISTENS WHILE YOU PLAY
Allow the microphone and Barline hears which notes and which bars need work — entirely on your device. Nothing is recorded and no audio ever leaves your phone. Listening is optional; looping and the ramp work without it.

HONEST PROGRESS
Clean passes, top clean tempo, time on the song and the passages you looped most. Accuracy is shown only once it has actually been measured — Barline never invents a percentage.

MADE FOR THE PRACTICE ROOM
Big transport buttons, a dark player for late nights that keeps the staff readable, a metronome and count-in, and every song you have opened works offline. Made for guitar, ukulele and bass.

EXPORT
Send a score out as MusicXML or MIDI to keep working in the notation software you already use.

PRACTICE IS FREE
Playing, looping, tempo, the metronome, listening and MusicXML import never cost anything. Scan credits are used only when Barline reads a photo or a PDF page. New installs get free pages, one more is added every month, and you can top up with a one-time pack — no subscription needed.

BARLINE PLUS
A monthly allowance of scan pages, unlimited songs and imports, and everything marked as part of Plus, billed monthly or yearly. Lifetime is a one-time purchase.

SUBSCRIPTION INFO
Barline Plus is an auto-renewing subscription, billed monthly or yearly at the price shown in the app for your region. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends; manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings. Page packs and Lifetime are one-time purchases and never renew.
