MobileSheets is a versatile application designed to manage and display sheet music files, including PDFs, images, and text or chord pro files. It offers multiple viewing modes, such as side-by-side pages, half-page turns, and vertical scrolling, ensuring that users can choose their preferred way to read music. The app also includes several hands-free options for turning pages, including Bluetooth and USB device compatibility, automatic scrolling, and gesture recognition, making it convenient for musicians who need to keep their hands free while playing.
In addition to its core functionality, MobileSheets provides several features for enhancing the music experience. Users can annotate their scores with freeform drawings, shapes, text, and stamps, allowing for personalized notes and markings. The application has a built-in audio player that supports features like a-b looping and various size settings, enabling musicians to practice any section of their scores efficiently. Custom page ordering is another valuable feature that lets users cut unnecessary pages, repeat sections, or rearrange scores without altering the original document.
The app also includes useful tools for musicians, such as a metronome with different display modes and sound effects, as well as bookmarks for quick access to specific sections of scores. The smart buttons feature allows users to place configurable action buttons on their scores, enhancing the interactive experience. Additionally, MobileSheets supports various file types, including the ability to import CSV index files and communicate with MIDI devices for loading songs or triggering specific actions, making it a robust tool for performance and practice.
MobileSheets aims to simplify the organization and accessibility of music files, helping users maintain a well-managed library with extensive metadata control. The app is optimized for tablets 7 inches and larger and does not provide music sheet content itself, requiring users to supply their own files. A free companion application for PC is available to assist with song creation and editing. For E-Ink devices, a specialized version of the app is offered. Users are encouraged to visit the official website for downloading the companion app or checking the privacy policy and terms of use. If users face installation issues, guidance is provided to resolve compatibility concerns.
