Pianora: Piano & Falling Notes
Sheet Scanner & Audio to MIDI
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Turn sheet music into sound. Turn songs into piano notes.
Found a sheet of music but don't know how it should sound?
Heard a beautiful melody but can't find the sheet music?
Pianora helps you turn both into playable piano notes, so you can listen, follow along, and practice in a more intuitive way.
From sheet music to piano
Take a photo of your sheet music, import images or a PDF, or open a MusicXML file. Pianora recognizes the notes and opens them in a built-in player, ready for practice.
Instead of guessing how the music should sound, you can hear it first, follow the currently playing measure, and learn at your own pace.
From songs to piano notes
Sometimes you don't have sheet music—just a song you love.
Import an audio or video file, record directly from your piano, or paste a link to content you have the rights to use. Pianora analyzes the piano performance and converts it into playable notes.
Audio recognition is optimized for piano music. Recordings with clear piano audio will produce the best results.
A player built for piano practice
Pianora is more than a music player.
It helps you see what's happening while you listen.
• Highlight the currently playing measure
• Watch an 88-key piano light up as each note is played, with different colors for the left and right hands
• Tap anywhere on the score to jump to that position
• Swipe through Falling Notes mode to quickly navigate your performance
Choose the view that fits the way you practice:
• Sheet Music + Piano Keyboard
• Sheet Music only
• Falling Notes for a more visual learning experience
Practice your way
Everyone learns differently.
With Pianora, you can:
• Slow down or speed up playback without changing pitch
• Adjust the tempo (BPM)
• Transpose up or down by up to 12 semitones
• Show or hide note names in Falling Notes mode
For music converted from audio, you can also switch between the original recording and the generated piano playback to compare the result.
Export your music
Save and share your work in popular formats:
• MIDI
• MusicXML
• WAV
• M4A (AAC)
Your music stays on your device
Sheet music recognition and audio recognition are processed directly on your iPhone.
Your sheet music and recordings are not uploaded to a server during processing, giving you greater privacy and letting you work with confidence on your own music.
Whether you're learning, teaching, or simply exploring
Whether you're just starting your piano journey, preparing lessons for your students, or curious about how a piece is played, Pianora makes learning piano more visual, more intuitive, and more enjoyable.
Play it like the real thing.
• Chords on the falling notes: audio songs now show chord guides right on the notes, in time with the music. Pick simple or full.
• Pedal like a real piano: sustain is pressed and released exactly where the recording does, with a soft pedal glow under the keys.
• 7 player themes: Classic, Atelier and five new stages (Neon, Candy, Crimson, Phantom, Violet). Switch mid-song, and the falling notes and keys follow.
• Your toolbar, your order: hold and drag to rearrange the tools. Turn note effects off for a clean screen.
• Priority Support for Pro: message the Pianora team right inside the app and get notified when we reply.
• Fixed crashes when processing songs on older devices, and steadier link import from YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and SoundCloud.
