## What is folino?

folino is a score viewer and player that carries you from part practice and learning your notes through to rehearsal and performance — for choir, a cappella, and any ensemble that rehearses part by part.
Import MuseScore .mscz, MusicXML, MIDI, or PDF, then solo your own part, mute the others, or turn one up. No more exporting a separate rehearsal track for every part.
Write dynamics and breath marks onto the score with Apple Pencil or your finger, and fix anything an import got wrong right where you are reading it.
Once you open a score, it stays easy to use offline, whether you are in rehearsal, on stage, or learning your part on the go.

[Part Practice]
Adjust volume per part, mute or solo individual staves, and change instruments for each part so you can focus on the line you need to learn. Solo your own part first, then bring the others back in as you get comfortable.
Use A-B repeat, a metronome, and tempo control to work through difficult phrases with repetition.
Background playback is also supported, so you can keep listening while doing other things on your device.
Picture in Picture keeps the score visible in a mini-player while another app is in use, so you can follow along without switching back.

[Annotation]
Write directly on scores and PDFs with Apple Pencil or your finger. Keep fingerings, practice notes, and dynamics right on top of the music.
Your marks are saved with the score and are still there next time you open it. Change the zoom or the scroll mode and the music reflows — your marks follow it.

[Editing]
Enter and delete notes, change pitches, and write chords, ties, and tuplets. Fix what an import got wrong, or rewrite a passage for practice, right where you are reading it.
Being able to correct a score, not just read it, is what sets folino apart from a playback-only viewer.

[Supported Formats]
Import MuseScore .mscz files, MusicXML, and MIDI, then play them back while reading the score.
PDF scores are read into real notation on import as well, so playback, transposition, part visibility, and note editing all work just like any other format. You can also switch to the original PDF to view and play it.

[Readable by Design]
Switch between scroll modes, then use zoom and cursor movement to quickly check the passage you need.
Show or hide individual parts so you can focus on your own staff — on iPad, and on the smaller iPhone screen too.

[Stay Organized]
Use playlists and tags to organize your scores by ensemble, event, rehearsal set, or any other workflow that fits your music life.
Group the pieces you need and open them quickly for rehearsal, performance, or review.

### 3/5 — 放大倍数太低了

*2026-09-03*

放大倍数太低了，对于iPad来说28号字还是太小了，完全看不清。还有一个问题是，二指放大之后，播放不会实时跳转，希望能够改进。

### 4/5 — 素晴らしいにつきる。

*2026-08-02*

音取りが格段に速くなる。素晴らしい機能盛りだくさんです。

ちなみに楽譜に書き込んだ物を消す機能は無さそうなので、そこだけが少しネックかな？

### 4/5 — 音を変更した時に保存して欲しい

*2026-07-12*

楽譜のパートによって音色が変えれると思うんですけど、ループ再生にした時に音色が初期状態に戻ってしまうため、永遠に同じ音色にできる設定にして欲しいです！それ以外神です！

### 5/5 — ！

*2026-07-02*

まじすげぇ

### 5/5 — 需要がありすぎます

*2026-06-11*

アカペラー需要を満たしてくれる素晴らしいアプリです！
ありがとうございます！

ひとつ気になった改善点を挙げさせていただきます。
横スクロールで楽譜を流しているのですが、もう少し再生バーが真ん中寄りに来て、先の楽譜が見える範囲が広がると流しながら歌いやすくなると感じました。
もし可能であれば修正していただけますとより使いやすくなるかと思います！

今後ともよろしくお願いいたします！！✨️

【追記】
早速ご対応いただけたようでありがとうございます！

重ねて気になるところを送らせていただきますので、お目通しいただけましたら幸いです🙇‍♀️

・なにかのパートをソロで流すとメトロノームが流れなくなってしまう
・メトロノーム欄にあるボリュームはメトロノームではなくマスターなのでしょうか？
メトロノームのみの音をあげられるコマンドがあると使いやすいと思いました！

以上です！

### 4/5 — 音消え

*2026-06-07*

すごくいい！けど音がところどころ消える時があります
再インストールすると治りましたが再発してしまいました
対応よろしくお願いします！

**Developer response:** 遅くなり申し訳ありません🙇‍♂️
音がところどころ消える問題を修正しましたので、最新バージョン(1.8.3)にアップデートしてお試しください！

### 4/5 — 自分だけ！？

*2026-05-31*

めちゃくちゃありがたいアプリで、素敵だなあと思ってたんですけど、最近楽譜開いてみると音がところどころ聞こえなくなったりするこの現象は僕のスマホが悪いのかな！？

**Developer response:** フィードバックいただきありがとうございます！

### 3/5 — 楽器変更

*2026-05-20*

楽器変更ができません。Charang→Bright Grand Piano に変更しようとしたのですが、再生音源をロード中となったまま画面が切り替わりません。

**Developer response:** folinoをご利用いただきありがとうございます！
修正しましたので、アップデートをお願いします。

### 5/5 — 「再生音源をロード中」

*2026-05-18*

「再生音源をロード中」で固まってしまいます

**Developer response:** folinoをご利用いただきありがとうございます！
修正しましたので、アップデートをお願いします。
