These features don't require anything beyond showing/hiding/rescaling
images,
so I don't see any evidence that there is any internal musical
representation in the app.

It is more revealing to consider what their app does not offer, which seems
like it would be low-handing fruit if they did have a fluid musical
representation: number of measures per line, transposition (or change
clefs), and MIDI playback (maybe not so low-hanging.)


This isn't meant as a criticism.  In fact, it sounds like it could be a
great app.
The features with fingerings/bowings seems pretty sophisticated.

I wonder if they will ever let third parties publish to their app.
