MusicPad – Music Writing
Write, compose & score music
Free · In-App Purchases
From detailed hand-written scores to fleeting ideas you don’t want to lose, MusicPad is a modern pen-and-paper experience designed specifically for musicians and composers.
— A true handwritten notation
Built on Apple’s PencilKit, MusicPad delivers near-zero latency and natural handwriting — turning your iPad into a real music notebook for sheet music and scoring.
• Handwrite music with Apple Pencil using expressive inks and gesture-based tools
• Solid undo across multiple pages for confident edits
• Redesigned tool picker and smooth vector-based zooming
• On-screen controls for zoom, grid, and gestures
Whether you’re working on classical notation, contemporary scoring, or harmonic exercises, MusicPad adapts to your workflow.
— Pages that adapt to your score
Every composition evolves differently. MusicPad lets each page adapt to your notation style.
• Unlimited notepads with customizable sheet music pages
• Per-page configuration: page size, margins, stave layout, spacing, and visibility
• Show or hide staves — ideal for graphic notation, diagrams, or title pages
• Grouped staves and vertical grid for structured layout and clean engraving
Designed for real composers who value both freedom and clarity.
— Effortless navigation
Navigate your score as naturally as paper and as powerfully as a graphic editor.
• Pinch to zoom, scroll, and swipe between pages
• Navigator to reorder, copy, and paste full pages
• Add multiple pages at once
• Built to support long-form scoring and complex compositions
