Fantastic until you need a new device

I’ve used Piascore for years and love all its cool features, especially creating notes and changes on .pdf files and books. It’s great until you need a new device and need to migrate the app or download it from the cloud to your new iPad, then prepare yourself for a shock. Many of the larger .pdf music books and files will not be in the app, and the ones that are will have lost ALL your notes. It doesn’t fully transfer through the cloud or in Dropbox. Piascore doesn’t offer phone support (as far as I can tell) and the online support does not address this issue. Now I have to recreate notes in 13 books and hundreds of files. Not happy. 🤬

Will it ever be Android friendly?

I’ve been using this app for years and I love everything except, when some of my musicians have Android devices. It’s such a pain to be to sharing a link with the songs to some and to others I have to download the songs as a pdf. Please make it Android friendly!

I’ve used many years, works great!

I think I started using this in 2022 and I’ve played out a lot since then. I import my pdf charts through iCloud and copy them into the Piascore folder, super easy. I love that the background can be inverted to black with white text, very easy on the eyes. Plus you don’t want a light shining from your iPad. I really like Piascore!

works great for uploading my paper music!

I love the portability of putting my music books on the ipad.

改善してほしい点があります。

五線紙をアプリ内で複製した時に譜面の周りが1cm程度欠けるのでセクションマークなどが切れてしまいます。
特に人に譜面を渡す時にも同じことが起こるので困ります。

Good Free Music Score App, but beware professionals

I've used Piascore for a year now and it's been great, gotten the job done. Sometimes it can be a bit klunky to get things uploaded, but otherwise no problem. EXCEPT recently I experienced a really bad problem where after I uploaded over 34 scores, any time a new score was uploaded a previously uploaded score would randomly disappear. Very glad I noticed because otherwise an entire song would've been missing from my set list during an upcoming performance.
It doesn't really seem like the app is still updated because problems like these are persistent.

Great app, but need folders

I’ve been using Piascore for years now, and it’s very easy to use and functional. However, as I have collected more and more sheet music, the amount of music I have is a bit overwhelming. I would love to be able to sort music into folders, so I hope that feature will be added. The setlist is ok, but it’s hard to find the beginning of each piece.

Download limitations

I have a folder I created, and it’s not letting me upload any of the songs except 2, without a reason. I’m assuming the file may be too big, but I would like to know why it’s not letting me upload my file for my gig. Over all pretty well put together, and a good app!

Sepia would be immensely helpful

I've been using Piascore pro version for many years now. Now that I have turned 50, my eyes hurt a lot when viewing scores with white pages. It would be great if Piascore could implement Sepia tone conversion in-app the way forScore has done it...even if the iPad has Night tone built into it.

No sharing button

Please add sharing button , so I can share with my students.

I give you 2 stars, cause no sharing button, so inconvenience!

DATA STEALERS

pretty good app for sheet music but they STEAL YOUR FILES, IF U HOLD DOWN ON THE APP U CAN SEE THE FILES THEY STOLE, THESE GUYS TOOK LIKE ME CHEMISTRY ASSIGNMENT!!!!! use with caution if u have important docs in ur files

Extremely affordable

Why spend 25 bucks?? This does everything the other guys do for a third of the price! Just sayin’!

perfect app

use it daily for years never failed me. Does everything I need it todo to keep all my music sheets annotated. Only change is like to see is that it syncs across devices so I can use it with my iPhone or other iPad I have.

Google Drive archives

Yes. This should be addressed. I love when music directors send me one giant PDF, but when Google Drive is involved, whether individual files, archive, or folder…. It’s darn near impossible to quickly manage it. Do we have unzip functionality yet?

Unusable with Google Drive

I store all my music in Google Drive. The link to the drive from Piascore is very unstable. It works occasionally, mostly not.

If your primary storage is Google Drive this app is not for you.

No longer works?

This was a great program for marking music but it suddenly stopped working. This makes me hesitant to purchase anything from Piascore.

A great sheet music reader for classical music

I’ve tried five different apps including virtual sheet music, music reader 4, museScore, etc. This is my favorite. It is easy, the only problem I have found with that is that if I make a playlist and I change the music in the playlist, it goes back and changes it in “all scores” which means I’d have to download it again to get back the original.

Solid choice

Pro musician here - been using PiaScore for years. Solid choice, excellent tools for annotation, setlist management. Runs well on older iPads as well - extending their useful life. HIGHLY recommend!

It would be great if it worked…

If I can’t figure out how to use an app in 5. Hours…I will go on to the next one.

Facial Recognition Not Great

I love the app and ease of use for scanning, downloading, and cataloging music. But, I’ve had some uneven experiences with the page turning function. Maybe I use facial expressions more than I think, but the app sometimes turn the when I’m not expecting it.
