This month marks fifteen years since we debuted forScore 1.0 and started an incredible journey that has taken us places we never could have expected. We’ve been so lucky to be able to do what we love for so long, and to have a huge audience of musicians who not only enjoy using our app, but who energize and inspire us with their feedback, encouragement, and support. Thank you all.
Back in 2020 we put together a page celebrating our app’s history, but with so much uncertainty in the midst of a global pandemic it felt like the wrong time to publish it. Instead, we reworked it for this anniversary—click the button below to check it out!
Fifteen Years of forScore
It’s a new year and we’re back with another exciting update packed with features and upgrades musicians everywhere will love. There are dozens of new actions for the Shortcuts app, half-page turn position indicators, a new tier of forScore Pro with family sharing, significant localization improvements, and more.
With forScore 14.4 and Cue 2.4, we’re also introducing a new version of the Cue remote control protocol built atop Apple’s modern networking frameworks. It provides a better experience, from faster discovery of nearby devices to more reliable connections, and the old version of the Cue protocol is still available if you need to connect to devices that haven’t updated (or can’t).
forScore 14.4 and Cue 2.4 are coming soon, but you can try them out for yourself today by becoming a beta tester. Otherwise, be sure to check back soon as we put the final touches on these incredible updates and get them ready for release this Spring.
forScore 14.4 Sneak Peek
After the release of iOS 18 we began receiving reports that some users were unable to interact with system-provided panels shown within forScore. We recently discovered that this is related to the way forScore provides its Sepia effect and have changed this feature with forScore 14.3.2 to restore all normal functionality. Rather than applying to the entire window, including menus and other panels presented within it, the sepia effect now only applies to elements within forScore’s main view.
The sepia effect is created using standard UI elements and does not, to our knowledge, use them in unintended ways. Until Apple explains any changes they’ve made with iOS 18 or offers updated best practices, this is our only option for avoiding the issue. If we can safely reverse this change in the future, we will do so.
