Privacy
Last updated 20 October 2026.
Maestro Pro has no accounts, no adverts and no analytics, and it does not collect personal data. Caffeine Media does not receive your scores, recordings or anything else you do in the app.
What stays on your device
Your library (scores, backing tracks, lyrics, drawings, recordings and version history) is stored in the app’s folder on your device. If you turn on iCloud Drive, it is kept in the app’s iCloud folder in your own iCloud account, so it is available on your other devices. That storage belongs to you and Apple; the developer cannot see it.
Permissions
- Microphone: to hear whether you are playing the right note, to tune, and to record you. Audio is processed on the device. Recordings are saved only in your library.
- Camera: scanning printed music with the camera is planned for a future update. The app does not use the camera today.
- Apple Music: to play a song from your subscription alongside a score and show its lyrics. This uses Apple’s own service under your account.
- Local network: so devices can find each other for Play Together. Messages go directly between the devices and are encrypted.
When the app uses the internet
Only when you ask it to. Searching for scores, lyrics or singers sends your search words (and, to match singers, the song title and artist) to the services that answer: the web search engine used for Search Scores and the sites it finds, GitHub, LRCLIB (lyrics) and Genius (singers). Downloading a free score fetches it from the site that hosts it. Those services have their own privacy policies.
GitHub
If you connect a score to a GitHub repository, the app talks to GitHub using a personal access token you provide. The token is kept in your device’s Keychain and is sent only to GitHub. Pushing sends your score’s versions to the repository you chose, and nothing else.
