Move to a digital sheet-music workflow
forScore is an app that lets musicians replace paper scores with a fully digital collection. Instead of carrying stacks of pages to rehearsals or concerts, you can store and access all your music on a device, speeding up setup and reducing clutter.
Organizing your repertoire
- Import PDFs from popular cloud services and add them directly to your library.
- Create Setlists to group pieces for rehearsals or specific performances.
- Add bookmarks to long works so you can jump between movements or sections.
- Browse and search a tidy, searchable library to find scores quickly.
How scores are displayed and edited
You can view pages in portrait, landscape, or side-by-side layouts and crop pages to make better use of your screen. The app also supports freehand and typed annotations (text, symbols, and markings) so you can add performance notes directly onto the score.
Hands-free page control
forScore works with Bluetooth page-turning devices so you can change pages without using your hands — useful when playing an instrument or conducting.
Cost and subscription details
The app requires an upfront purchase and offers an optional annual subscription that unlocks additional tools. That subscription can make the overall cost fairly high for some users, so weigh the extra features against your needs.
Alternative option worth considering
- Logic Pro X (paid) — a professional digital-audio solution that many musicians use alongside or instead of dedicated score apps.
