Description
Notion is a free, award-winning music composition app for Android on phones, tablets, Chromebooks, and more! You’ll effortlessly compose dynamic sheet music in traditional musical notation or guitar tablature with its intuitive touch-based interface and incredibly broad editing capabilities.
With a user-friendly interface and simple interactive piano keyboard, fretboard, drum pad, and even optional Handwriting Recognition, Notion makes it easy to get started composing your music. You’ll hear your music performed with the most realistic playback possible, using real audio samples recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios.
Notion is a native cross-platform app, meaning you can write anywhere on any device without requiring a constant Internet connection. And when you’re back online, you’ll be able to sync your work across multiple devices through your preferred cloud provider. Start your work on one device and finish it on another. Once you are happy with your creation you can share the Notion file, or export as MIDI, MusicXML, PDF or as an audio file. You can even optionally transmit scores across a network with other instances of Notion, or between Notion and the Fender Studio Pro DAW.
Compose, edit, and play back your sheet music performed with real piano and orchestral samples recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios — along with outstanding sampled guitar, bass, drums and other popular instruments. And when you’re ready for more sounds, you’ll find the extensive library of Notion Add-on Soundsets as part of the Feature Bundle. To save space, the initial app download contains just piano — you can then manage which of the bundled Soundsets to have on your device or keep in the cloud, just tap on Sound Installation.
Notion has been featured in various worldwide campaigns and has won several awards, including a prestigious music industry NAMM TEC Award for Best Smartphone/Tablet App.

Comments on Notion: Music Notation & Tab for Android
★★★★☆Matheus Bernardo Yesaya· Aug 29, 2024
I really like the features offered in this app, and I think this can be the app that I will often use, but I think there can be many things to be added in this app: like (1) adding text below the staves for 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. lyrics, and something like (2) hiding the rest on the first bar, or (3) the size of the title, subtitle or the composer text can be edited. One more, (4) I can edit a little bit the layout of the staves, so I can also arrange the text according to the way I want
★★★★☆Zandisa Kahla· Jun 27, 2026
Best composing app for android but the reason I gave it a four is because of the instruments sounds (why do we have to download the correct sound of the instrument like why)and the vocals(they need to sing the lyrics that have been put there pls because we composers need the vocals to sing the lyrics in order for us to enjoy the way we write so yeah those are the only things I wanted to address so with all due respect to the company I am pleading to make an update of the app thank you

Can't even look at the app to see what it's about without that annoying "buy me!" box popping up every time I touch the screen.
★☆☆☆☆Don Jackson· Aug 9, 2024
Can not sign up! I thought this may be just what I wanted, but I can not sign up to even get started. It says my email or password are incorrect. I have punched it in over and over for 40 minutes. What good is this if you can not sign up. The very first step?
★★☆☆☆Edgar Acajabon· Nov 5, 2025
L liked this app. L liked it even more when it had the drums feature. Suddenly it was removed. L can't hear the sound of the drums as l am I trying to play it back with the notes l write
★☆☆☆☆Pip Bolton· Nov 22, 2025
Couldn't even sign up, as app convinced there was an account with my email already existing (which after asking for a reminder password to be sent through and trying to sign up via social means via website, I can tell you is not the case)! I was looking forward to trying this out to notate my songs. Also, some of my audio files won't load despite being frpm a proper audio recording app.
