What changes in 1.13.0
SheetCue Plus and the free trial
From SheetCue 1.13.0, using the app requires a SheetCue Plus subscription, monthly or annual. Here is what changes, what stays the same, and how the free trial works.
The short answer
From SheetCue 1.13.0, using the app requires a SheetCue Plus subscription, monthly or annual. Eligible accounts are first offered a 14-day free trial, as shown in the App Store or Google Play. Plus includes everything from import to playback, with no ads and no active preset limit. Scores and presets stay on your device without a subscription; nothing is deleted.

What changes in 1.13.0
The free plan, with ads and a five-active-preset limit, gives way to SheetCue Plus on a monthly or annual subscription. The updated Terms of Use take effect on October 21, 2026, and SheetCue 1.13.0 reaches the stores on or after that date.
How the free trial works
Eligible accounts are first offered a 14-day free trial, as shown in the App Store or Google Play; not every account is eligible. Monthly or annual options and purchase restoration are shown by the app stores; price can vary by store and region.
What Plus does not add
Plus does not add accounts, cloud storage, automatic device sync, collaboration, OCR, or audio-based score following. Presets and score assets still follow SheetCue's local-first model.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a subscription to use SheetCue?
Yes, from SheetCue 1.13.0. Eligible accounts can start with a 14-day free trial, as shown in the App Store or Google Play, and then continue with SheetCue Plus monthly or annually.
I used the free plan before. What happens now?
If you used SheetCue on the free plan before October 21, 2026, the subscription requirement applies to you from November 13, 2026, under the supplementary provision of the Terms of Use. Until then, you keep the free plan.
Are my scores deleted if I don't subscribe?
No. Scores and presets stay on your device without a subscription; nothing is deleted.
Does Plus back up my scores?
No. You can manually export one preset at a time as a local SheetCue file, but Plus does not provide cloud backup or sync.
