Sheetopia

Sheetopia is a cross-platform local-first sheet music app with optional self-hosted sync.

Available on: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android

iOS/iPadOS is supported aswell but there are no release builds available, because I do not have a paid Apple Developer account.

See below for installation instructions for your platform.

Visit sheetopia-sync to install the optional sync server.

Windows

1. Download Sheetopia-x.x.x-windows-x86-64.exe from the Assets section of the latest release.
2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the instructions of the installer.
   • If you are prompted that Windows protected your PC click More info, then Run anyway. This warning appears because the installer is not signed and can safely be ignored.
3. Sheetopia should now be installed on your system.

macOS

1. Download Sheetopia-x.x.x-linux-x86-64.AppImage from the Assets section of the latest release.
2. Open the downloaded file.
3. Drag the Sheetopia icon to the Applications directory.
4. Open Sheetopia from the app launcher and click Done when macOS tells you it prevented Sheetopia from being opened.
5. Because Sheetopia is not signed, you'll need to allow it to be opened. To do that:
   1. Open system settings.
   2. Navigate to Privacy & Security.
   3. Scroll down until you see: "Sheetopia" was blocked to protect your Mac.
   4. Click Open anyway and confirm Open anyway in the confirmation dialog.
   5. Enter your macOS user password when prompted.

Linux

1. Download Sheetopia-x.x.x-linux-x86-64.AppImage from the Assets section of the latest release.
2. Execute the downloaded file (allow execution when prompted). On some systems it's necessary to manually make the file executable. You can do that by entering the following command in a terminal in in the directory of the downloaded file:

   # change to the exact name of the downloaded file
   chmod +x ./Sheetopia-x.x.x-linux-x86-64.AppImage

3. When prompted to integrate the AppImage, click Yes.
4. Sheetopia should now be installed on your system.

Android

1. Download the correct APK file for your architecture (usually arm64v8) from the Assets section of the latest release.
2. Open the downloaded file and allow your browser/file manager (depending on what you use to open the file) to install apps from unknown sources by clicking on Settings when prompted and enabling Allow from this source.
3. Click on Install when asked whether you want to install Sheetopia (you might have to open the APK file again).
