Note NamesEvery note,
named.
Note Names reads your sheet music and prints the letter above every note, so you can play the piece today and learn to read as you go.
For iPhone and iPad. Android is in testing.
PDF in. Letters on.
Import a PDF
Any sheet music you already have: a download, a scan, or a score from your teacher.
Every note gets named
The app reads the page on your device, clef and key signature included, and puts the letter above each note.
Play, then let go
Turn the letters down as the piece sinks in, until you're reading the notes on your own.
Wean off at your own pace.
Six steps, from every letter down to none. Keep only the landmarks, or only the ledger-line notes that trip you up. Each piece remembers its own setting.
Make each piece your own.
Nudge a letter, correct a note, or add one the app missed. Your fixes save with the piece.
Write on the score.
Sketch fingering and reminders with your finger or Apple Pencil, right on the page.
Start with a classic.
Bach, Mozart, Chopin and more, ready to open, with every note name checked.
Your music stays yours.
Reads on your device
Your PDFs are never uploaded. The reading happens on your iPhone or iPad.
Works offline
No internet needed to read, practise or edit. Take it anywhere there's a piano.
No accounts, no tracking
No sign-up, no ads, no analytics. Read the privacy policy.
Good to know.
What music can I use?
Any sheet-music PDF: printed scores, downloads from sites like IMSLP or Musicnotes, or scans. You can also start with the Verified library of classics.
Which clefs does it read?
Treble, bass, alto and tenor, so it works for piano, strings, winds and voice.
What if a letter is wrong?
Tap the edit button, choose Fix letters, and tap the letter to correct it. Fixes save with the piece.
Won't I depend on the letters forever?
That's what the reliance dial is for. Turn it down as a piece gets familiar: every letter, then only the tricky notes, then none.
Is my music uploaded anywhere?
No. Note Names reads your PDFs entirely on your device and works offline. There are no accounts and no tracking.
Is Note Names on Android?
The Android version is in testing and coming to Google Play soon.
Who is G?
G is the note on our app icon, and the star of our Name Tags videos. Say hi.
