MuseScore: sheet music 4+

Great app. Helpful song selection. Any opportunity for limiting hard copy sheet music?

Hello, I pay for the subscription to your app and have been happy because I can find many of the songs I want to learn on your app. I only have one main question. Can I download pdf versions of my songs onto a tablet, kindle, or iPad and scroll each page as I play on my keyboard? This would offer a customer like me a few vital benefits, such as the limit of money I spend to print several pages per each piece, eliminate the space I need to keep track of all my hard copy songs, easier searching when I want to play a song I haven’t practiced recently, and a much easier time flipping through pages of the song while I play. As always the library of songs offered for me is the primary benefit and more is wonderful. I love current popular music, I occasionally download classical music on the piano. I don’t play any woodwind instrument so I take my guitar sheet music from other apps. Any suggestions on electronically updating my sheet music practice I’d appreciated.

Would be good if I could actually see my section.

I love music. I’ve been playing the violin for as long as I can remember. It has always been easy to find my songs for violin. A couple years ago, I switched to the double bass. Now, i can barely find any popular songs that are readily available. (without purchase because i’m broke 😝) Musescore has been good to me, until i go to the larger peices. I’m talking the scores that have +12 parts in them. The whole point of having a zoom in and out feature is so you can see the whole score in at least decent quality. But on Musescore (for some apparent reason) they decided “Oh, let’s screw over the lower sections and let them not be able to see their parts hahahaha.” Which, for me, I take as a personal attack because i’m a proud member of my section and I don’t take disrespect lightly. At least make a *FREE* (did i mention it needed to be FREE??) feature to where you can section off parts so you can actually see them. Honestly, these people are just here to get your money in the most apparent way possible. Do yourself a favor and just go to Google and search for the song you’re looking for, it’s much easier and cheaper too. And another thing. Don’t advertise your app as having “however many millions” of songs if you can only get to those songs through a paywall. It’s just being money hungry, and greedy. Like, i’ve already gone and downloaded your app, you already get money from that. What more do you want from us???

Developer Response ,

Hi! It would be great if you could contact us through support@musescore.com and describe your technical issue with all the details! Please include your device model, the app's current version, screenshots, or a screencast, steps to reproduce the issue, and a link to an example score

Good right now, but could be much better.

So this would be a 4 star, but there’s one thing that I think would make this app a whole lot better. That thing is, to be able to make score sheets in the app, or at least have an app that solely focuses on the ability to make score sheets that pairs with this app, as in you could upload scores you make in the supposed sister app from this app. And I haven’t exactly come across some of the issues other users have had with this app, except for when I try to open score sheets that are very long, so for instance medleys which tend to be over 10 or 20 minutes long. Every time I try to open a very long score sheet on the app, it freezes and I can’t do anything except for close the app and relaunch it. Meanwhile, the website has little to no problem opening the same exact score, and just to be clear I use a laptop that is over 2 or 3 years old, it’s a Dell and is not exactly great, and I use google chrome as my default browser. Other than that I don’t have any real problems with the app, and if you could conjure up something that allows users to make score sheets on their mobile device and upload from this app when on the go, that would be quite a make up for the mentioned “issues” that users comment on that I can’t seem to find or come across.
