## What is TradPad?

TradPad is the tunebook built for Irish and folk session musicians — one place to organize your sheet music, build your setlists, and mark up and practice your tunes right on the page. On iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo.

Whether you play fiddle, tin whistle, flute, banjo, mandolin, accordion or concertina, TradPad keeps every jig, reel, polka and waltz in your repertoire organized, marked up, and ready for the next session.

WHY MUSICIANS USE TRADPAD

• Your tunebook, organized — Browse your full library of traditional and folk tunes by name or tune type, with clean, distraction-free notation for every setting.
• Build the perfect set — Order tunes into setlists for sessions, gigs, lessons or practice, and reorder them on the fly.
• Mark it up with Apple Pencil — On iPad, add fingerings, ornaments, reminders and dynamics directly on the score, in your own hand.
• Practice at your own pace — Loop tricky passages, dial in the tempo that works for you, and transpose any tune to a key that suits your instrument, without losing your place in the tune.
• Practice tools built in — A metronome that follows the time signature (a jig clicks in threes), a tuner, and a recorder so you can hear yourself back against the tune.
• PDFs and photos welcome — Import a PDF, scan a page or snap a photo. Pull just the pages you want out of a whole tunebook, crop away the margins, and let auto-scroll turn the pages for you.
• Print it — Print any tune on A4, laid out fresh for the page, with a title and page numbers.
• Your library everywhere — Sign in with a free account to keep your tunes, markings and setlists in step across your iPhone and iPad, and to read, play and print them at tradpad.app on any computer.
• Made for iPhone Duo — Fold it like a book and your library sits either side of the hinge. Prop it like a laptop, with the score on top and the controls underneath.

Built for the pub session, the classroom and the stage, TradPad puts your whole tunebook on your iPhone and iPad — no more loose pages, printouts or hunting through PDFs mid-session.

Download TradPad and bring your tunebook wherever the music happens.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.5 — 2026-10-12

Now at home on iPhone Duo
• Fold it like a book and your library and setlists sit either side of the hinge, with nothing hiding in the middle.
• Prop it like a laptop: the score fills the top half and the controls (transpose, tempo, loop, metronome, tuner) sit below, like a keyboard.
• Controls and their pop-ups open on the right-hand screen, clear of the fold.
• The setlist editor uses both halves too.

Also in this update
• Margin cropping on PDFs and photos works properly: it zooms in on the notation when you switch it on, and follows you to every page.
• TradPad now works in resizable windows, with Stage Manager and Split View on iPad.

### 1.4 — 2026-10-10

TradPad is now on iPhone.
• Now on iPhone: your tunes, setlists, playback and practice tools, laid out for a smaller screen. Turn your phone on its side for bigger notation.
• Your library on both: sign in with your free account and your tunes, finger numbers, markings and setlists come straight across from your iPad, and stay in step.
• Markings that stay on their notes: Pencil markings on interactive tunes stay where you drew them, whichever way you hold your iPad and whatever screen you open them on.
• Swipe to turn the page, on any tune, on iPhone and iPad. In a setlist, swiping on from the last page goes to the next tune.
• Fixes: smaller fixes and improvements.

### 1.3 — 2026-10-05

Your library, everywhere
• Free account: Continue with Apple in a tap. Everything you already have stays open, account or not.
• Your library on the web: sign in at tradpad.app on any computer to read, play and print your tunes and setlists, with your finger numbers and Pencil markings.

Also new
• Playback fixes. Plus small improvements and fixes.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-09-27

Fixes finger numbers not appearing on tunes that have first and second endings. Any finger numbers you added before will now show up.

### 1.2 — 2026-09-24

New in 1.2:
• Transpose — play or read any tune in another key, up to two octaves either way. TradPad names the new key for you as you go.
• Auto-scroll — turn pages hands-free during a session. Works on printed sheet music, photos, and TradPad's own live-engraved notation.
• Two-page view and margin cropping for PDFs and photos, so scans and pictures read cleanly on screen.
• Keep the screen awake, or dim the display for a low-light session — one tap in the display menu.
Plus smaller fixes and polish throughout.
