I'm writing an iPhone app where I'd like to display some simple musical notation (just a chord or two).
This question is a call for suggestions on the quickest way to go about it. For instance:
Tap Keyboard Settings, then turn on Predictive. Or go to Settings > General > Keyboard, and turn Predictive on or off.
Whether you're just learning to code or are an experienced developer, having the right coding app on your iPhone or iPad will help take your skills to the next level. You can find apps that teach you different languages or actual code editors that let you test your code in real-time.
Turn Siri Suggestions on or off for an app Siri Suggestions are on by default for your apps. You can turn them off or change the settings at any time. Go to Settings > Siri & Search, scroll down, then select an app. Turn settings on or off.
Enter accented letters or other characters while typingWhile typing, touch and hold the letter, number, or symbol on the keyboard that's related to the character you want. For example, to enter é, touch and hold the e key, then slide to choose a variant.
Indeed, MusicKit is an audio tool, not a symbolic tool like you need.
I don't know of any open-source Objective-C music notation programs. However, the recently-released Zong! Viewer is an open-source (GPL) Java program. You can't run Java on the iPhone, of course, but it might give you some ideas for structuring your software. MuseScore is an open source music notation editor that might provide more ideas.
So far the only iPhone music notation application I know is pocketscore. It has the great idea of exporting MusicXML files via e-mail so you can work on your music later with a more full-featured program than you can write on an iPhone.
There might be other open source programs you can check out on the MusicXML software list. Good luck!
This is an objective-c music analysis framework which may have what you need:
