AR Music Score turns your Even Realities G1 smart glasses into a hands-free music stand. Your part floats in front of you, so you can turn the page without ever taking your hands off the instrument. Prepare your scores on your phone, then play. Import a PDF or a MusicXML file and the app lays your music out for the glasses' 576×136 monochrome display — a few staves at a time, crisp and readable. HANDS-FREE PAGE TURNS • Head lift — lift your head up to advance to the next line, then lower it back. • Timed clock — lines advance automatically at your score's tempo, biased slightly early so you always read ahead. • On-screen Back / Forward — always there when you want manual control. SHARPEST NOTES: MUSICXML Import a MusicXML export (from Sibelius, MuseScore, Dorico, Finale, and more) and the app re-engraves it on-device with Verovio — the notes are drawn fresh for the small display instead of shrinking a PDF. Cue times for the timed player are filled in automatically from the score's tempo. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU HAVE • Import PDF parts and slice them into frames with a simple capture box. • Bundle mode: show your PDF pages while borrowing tempo and cue times from a matching MusicXML. • Braced two-stave systems are grouped together for you. • Choose one or two systems per view — fewer page turns, or bigger notes. BUILT FOR THE INSTRUMENT • Preparing scores works fully offline — the glasses are only needed to play. • Streams to both lenses, and each eye recovers on its own if it briefly drops. • Your scores never leave your phone. No account, no tracking, no ads. Requires Even Realities G1 smart glasses. This app is not affiliated with or endorsed by Even Realities. "Even Realities" and "G1" are used only to describe compatibility.

The clearest difference is price: AR Music Score at Free against Refraktions's $5.99. On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
