Composers include Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann, Joplin, Satie, and more. Difficulty ranges from Novice to Advanced. Available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. How it started Sheet Music Finder was built as a university level educational discovery tool first. The original goal was simple: browse classical piano repertoire by feel, skill level, and style, then take that shortlist to a physical book or continue searching online. That remains the heart of the app. Over the course of development, a catalogue of PDF scores and MIDI versions grew from nothing to cover over 814 pieces — but finding the right piece to learn is still what the app is designed for. The iPhone version exists for the same reason — to let you browse and shortlist pieces wherever you are, ready to revisit on iPad or Mac later. That said, we've done our best to make the iPhone experience stand on its own, with auto-scroll and display controls designed for the smaller screen. Privacy you can verify. Our apps do not use third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, tracking SDKs, data brokers, or third-party service connections. We encourage every user to turn on Apple’s App Privacy Report to compare this for themselves. To enable App Privacy Report on iPhone or iPad, open Settings > Privacy & Security > App Privacy Report > Turn On App Privacy Report. After you use the app iOS will show the network domains contacted by the app. For our apps, expected network activity should be limited to Apple-operated services needed for normal App Store, iCloud, device, or system functionality. We believe privacy claims should be inspectable, not merely promised.
