Zap's abc vVARY
XMS DevelopersAbout this app
Developer Description
Compose music using the abc notation
Would you like to be able to compose music on your phone, view it as a normal score and play it back? Knowing a bit about the abc notation helps too, but tutorial is included and demos can be downloaded. Now includes several shortcut buttons for beginners as well as more experienced users.
I love feedback to jonas@petersson.se

I've used Barfly on the Mac for a long time and while this doesn't offer the split view "live" editing that Barfly does, its a nearly perfect android implementation of the open source abc utilities on which its based. Its exactly what I needed to create abc on the go, check that it sounds right and output sheet music. If you don't know what abc is or how to use it please down downvote until you look it up!
Great app. Is simple to use if you know abc notation. Only drawback is that it relies on a web service, so it doesn't work when out of cell range.
The app needs a setting that allows the user to designate his preferred location for the default folder (it will not place or access a folder on the sd card). Better yet, design the app to search all folders for abc files. Otherwise, a very useful app for musicians.
Why does this app need "read phone state and identity" permissions?
Sadly doesn't work on the most recent android phones. Would like to know when it will be updated so that it does work. It would be great if it did as there are no other ABC notation editors out there for android phones. I have an Xperia XZ2.
