About

Rehearsio

Features
Read full description

Everything you need for a practice session, in one app. Sheet music, annotations, metronome, tuner, recorder, notes and practice history — all inside one rehearsal session. No switching between apps. No writing the same thing down twice. You start practicing, and everything you need is already there. When you finish, Rehearsio leaves you with a record of what you actually worked on. WHAT A SESSION LOOKS LIKE Start a session and the clock runs automatically. Your score is open, the metronome is a tap away, the recorder is ready, and your practice time is tracked by piece — not just as one total. When you finish, your session summary shows what you practiced, for how long, and what you recorded. SHEET MUSIC YOU CAN WRITE ON Import PDFs from Files, Mail, or anywhere you can share. Add fingerings, bowings, breaths, reminders and more directly to the page. Six pencils and a highlighter, musical stamps, typed notes, eraser and undo — everything is there when you need it. Your annotations stay with the score, even when you make them in the middle of a run-through. Share an annotated copy with your teacher while keeping the original untouched. A METRONOME THAT HOLDS THE BEAT Set time signatures, accents, subdivisions and tempo, or tap in the tempo yourself. It keeps playing while you use the rest of the app — even when you turn the page. A TUNER FOR ANYTHING WITH A PITCH A clear note, cents display and stable needle. Choose your instrument for more focused tuning, or use chromatic mode for anything. A reference note is also available when you prefer to tune by ear. RECORD THE RUN-THROUGH Record without leaving the score. Start a take, keep practicing, and listen back afterwards — with the annotations you made during the session still there. Recordings stay on your device unless you choose to share them. NOTES AND TASKS THAT KNOW THE PIECE What your teacher said. What to fix before Friday. What to ask next lesson. Keep notes and tasks attached to the piece so they are there when you need them again. SEE THE WEEKS ADD UP Track practice days, minutes per piece, tempo and progress over time. Rehearsio counts what you actually played, giving you a clear picture of your practice — not just what you intended to practice. BUILT FOR THE MUSIC STAND Large controls, warm paper-coloured surfaces and a distraction-free interface designed to be read while you play. Rehearsio supports VoiceOver and TalkBack so every control is clearly identified. YOUR WORK STAYS YOURS No account. No sign-in. Nothing is uploaded. Your scores, annotations, notes, recordings and practice history stay on your device. You can export your entire library to a single file and keep your own backup wherever you choose. FREE. NO ADS. Rehearsio is free to use, with no advertising and nothing to buy inside the app. Rehearsio is made by one person who practises. If something is broken or missing, you can reach them directly through the app.

About

Stringino

Features
Read full description

Stringino is a gentle practice companion for pitch and rhythm on the violin. Play from the score and Stringino listens through the microphone, then shows the result in color right on the sheet music. You see at a glance which notes were right and which were off. SEE YOUR RESULTS IN COLOR • Right notes are green. A little flat is blue, a little sharp is red, and a different note is purple. • The pitch you actually played is shown on the staff, with its note name. • The result screen points out what to fix: pitch, missed notes and timing. • A built-in legend explains every color and mark. LOOP A PASSAGE • Tap a note on the score to start from there; tap another to set a range. • Repeat the range 2, 3, 5 or 10 times, or endlessly. • Spots you keep missing are highlighted, and you can retry just that part. TWO PRACTICE MODES • Free tempo: play at your own pace. • Follow the tempo: play with a metronome and check your timing too. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS • Every session is saved in your history. • A graph shows how your accuracy changes for each piece. • Recordings are never saved — only the pitch and timing of the notes you played. LISTEN TO A MODEL • Play the score back with a violin or piano sound. KID-FRIENDLY OR GROWN-UP WORDING • Switch the interface wording between simple language for children and standard language for adults. SUPPORTED RANGE • Covers the violin range, from the open G string (G3) upward. Lower notes, such as on the viola C string or the cello, are not detected yet. A SIMPLE TUNER • Choose the reference pitch (A4 = 440–444 Hz). IMPORT, CREATE AND EDIT SCORES • Import MusicXML and MIDI files. • Tap a note to change its pitch, length or marks. Tap the staff to change the time or key signature. • Try it right away with the five built-in songs. SCAN IMPORT (PRO) • Turn paper sheet music into an editable score from a photo, a PDF or the camera. • Reading happens on our server and continues even if you close the app. You are notified when it is done. • Notes we are unsure about get a colored band so you can check them against your page. • Up to 20 pages per month. Your image is deleted from the server as soon as reading finishes. • Please use copyrighted music only within the scope of private use. PRIVACY • Audio is analyzed entirely on your device. It is never recorded or uploaded. • No account needed. No ads and no tracking. ABOUT PRO (AUTO-RENEWING SUBSCRIPTION) • Scan import is part of Pro: 600 JPY per month in Japan (prices vary by region), renewing monthly. Everything else is free. • Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. • Manage or cancel any time in Settings → your Apple Account → Subscriptions. • Terms of Use: https://stringino.com/en/terms/ • Privacy Policy: https://stringino.com/en/privacy/ • Apple's Standard EULA: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Note: Feedback on your playing is a practice aid.
