On some devices image can come out blurred. To fix, tap and hold camera button. Then choose SYSTEM CAMERA

App will only work if you snap the WHOLE of a FLAT, STRAIGHT page of PRINTED music in BRIGHT LIGHT. The music should just fill the screen squarely. Not at an angle.

Please photograph paper, not a screen.

*PlayScore does not support handwritten instrument parts (eg Real Books).

Can take a little practice to get a really good result. Not working? See *troubleshooting* below or send us an email [email protected].

Place music upright in good bright light. Make sure the page is flat

Take photo square-on. Sharp, clear focus essential.

Tap the logo button in the lower centre to scan.

Troubleshooting
=============
- If you have 1 or 2 staff music but PlayScore seems to think you have more, it is probably because the left edge is curled up at the spine or in shadow. Try more even light, and flatten the page.

- If no music is recognised or music plays poorly: try
-- more light spread evenly
-- better focus. Some cameras take a few seconds to focus fully. Let the focus settle before tapping the sbap button
-- make sure the page sits square on the screen. It is important to have the left edge of the music where the clefs are vertical in the picture and not slanting.
