How It Works
A Songwriting Workflow Built for iPhone
Suonote replaces fragmented note-taking with one continuous composition flow from idea capture to export.
Step 1
Capture the first spark
Create a project in seconds and save melody, lyric, or rhythm ideas before they disappear.
Step 2
Define musical context
Set key, mode, BPM, and time signature so every decision stays connected to the same song direction.
Step 3
Build sections and harmony
Arrange verse, chorus, and bridge sections with chord timelines by bars and beats.
Step 4
Write and record in context
Add lyrics per section and record takes linked to the arrangement for faster iteration.
Step 5
Export a production-ready draft
Hear it with the Studio band, then share an audio mix, MIDI, chord charts or project files.

- Arrangements that build: quiet verses, bigger choruses
- Reverb, delay, EQ and compression on every track
- Piano-roll and drum editors. Tap a key to hear it
- Export MIDI or a finished audio mix (M4A)

Comparison
Suonote vs Fragmented Songwriting Tools
Why creators switch from disconnected apps to a project-based songwriting system.
| Workflow Area | Fragmented Tools |  |
|---|---|---|
| Idea capture | Scattered across Notes and Voice Memos | Everything starts in one project workspace |
| Song structure | Arrangement decisions are usually delayed | Sections and timeline are part of early drafting |
| Lyrics + harmony | Lyrics and chords often live in separate places | Lyrics and chord events stay linked per section |
| Recording context | Audio snippets lose arrangement context | Takes can be linked to specific song sections |
| Hearing the song | Needs a DAW, loops or a band in the room | The Studio band plays your chords, section by section |
| DAW handoff | Manual reconstruction before production | Export an audio mix, MIDI, charts, and project files |

Suonote is built for songwriters, producers, topliners, and musicians who want to go from first spark to a shareable draft without fragmented tools.
Which devices and OS versions are supported?

What's new in Suonote 2.0?
Suonote 2.0 is a full redesign with a new Studio: a drummer with real grooves and fills, bass lines that follow the kick, arrangements that grow from verse to chorus, per-track effects and audio mix export. It also adds Home and Lock Screen widgets and a complete Spanish translation.
Is Suonote available in Spanish?
Yes. Since version 2.0 the whole app is available in English and Spanish, and it follows your iPhone's language.
What can I store inside one project?
Each project can include title and tags, key and BPM, section arrangement, chord timelines, lyrics by section, recordings, and optional Studio tracks.
Can I organize ideas by status and tags?
Yes. You can manage projects with statuses like Idea, In Progress, Polished, Finished, and Archived, plus tags and search across titles and lyrics.
Can I record audio takes inside Suonote?
Yes. You can record takes with metronome and count-in, classify them by type, favorite important takes, and link recordings to specific sections.
How does Studio help with production sketches?
Studio turns your chords into a band. Pick a style and Suonote writes drums, bass, keys and more that follow your sections, getting quieter in the verses and bigger in the choruses. You can edit every note in the piano-roll and drum editors, shape each track with reverb, delay, EQ and compression, and export the mix as audio or MIDI.
Can I export my songs and project data?
Yes. You can export the Studio mix as audio (M4A), MIDI with chords, bass and drums, PDF chord charts, lyric sheets, song notes and portable .suonote project files.
Can I sync between my Apple devices?
Yes. Optional private iCloud sync is available through your own iCloud account, keeping projects aligned across compatible devices.
Does Suonote work offline?
Yes. Suonote is local-first, so core songwriting and recording flows work without an active internet connection.
How does Suonote handle privacy?
Suonote is privacy-first: no ads, no third-party trackers, and no external analytics SDKs. Your music data remains under your control.
Does Suonote have widgets and Shortcuts support?
Yes. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show the song you're working on and open it, its Studio or Record in one tap. App Intents let you start quick idea capture from Siri and Shortcuts.
Can I work with different key modes and harmonic colors?
Yes. Suonote supports major, minor, modal, harmonic and melodic minor variants, plus chord-quality options for richer progression drafting.
Can Suonote help before I open Logic Pro, Ableton, or another DAW?
Yes. Suonote is designed as a pre-production songwriting layer so you can arrive in your DAW with structure, chords, lyrics, and reference takes already organized.
Is my data cloud-shared publicly?
No. If you enable sync, data stays in your private iCloud container rather than in a public shared database.
