Sorane
What it is
Sorane is a free iPhone practice companion that helps musicians keep assignments, tempo, tracks, and progress together. Users can type an assignment or import a screenshot, then review recognized text and edit practice lines before saving. Screenshot text recognition takes place on the device; Sorane says it does not upload screenshots or extracted assignment text to its servers. Each practice item remembers its BPM and includes a metronome with subdivision choices. The app can suggest tracks for the current tempo and save links to backing tracks, lessons, or songs. A monthly calendar, practice streaks, and total practice days show activity over time. Practice logs store the date and BPM and can be copied with a prompt for pasting into AI tools. Assignments, history, settings, and links stay stored locally on the device. Sorane does not currently require an account or use third-party ads in the app. The App Store lists it for iPhone only, requiring iOS 15.5 or later, and identifies Jiayi Li as the seller. Sorane uses Amplitude for product analytics, excluding raw assignment text, copied logs, and assignment titles from analytics event payloads.
