How can we help?

1. Go to the My Classes tab and tap + (top left).
2. Enter a Subject (e.g. Piano) and a Class Name (e.g. Tuesday Piano). Both are required.
3. Tap Create Class.

A unique invite code is generated automatically. You can't choose your own code.

1. Open the class and tap the pencil icon next to its name.
2. The Invite Code is shown here (read-only), so you can copy it to share.
3. Change the subject or class name if you need to, then tap Save Changes.

Tap the class's icon on its card in My Classes and choose a new symbol, color or photo. Your students see the change right away.

1. Open the class, tap + and choose Delete Class.
2. Confirm with Delete.

1. Open the class, tap + and choose Add Student.
2. Enter their name and email.
3. Tap Add Student. StaveFlow emails them an invite, and the screen shows the class code to share.

The student appears on your roster with an orange Pending badge until they sign up and join. You can schedule lessons for them right away.

If you see "{Name} is already in this class," a student with the same name and email is already on the roster.

Press and hold a Pending student's row, then choose:

• Resend Invite sends the email again. You can resend about once every 5 minutes.
• Edit Email fixes a typo in their address.
• Cancel Invite removes the placeholder. The email you already sent will stop working, so you'd need to add them again.

On the class roster, swipe right on the student's row and tap Edit or Photo.

A student's email can't be changed once they've joined the class. Students who belong to a family account don't have an editable email.

1. On the class roster, swipe left on the student and tap Remove.
2. Choose one of two options:

• Archive takes them off your active roster but keeps their lesson history visible to them, read-only. This is the right choice when a student stops lessons.
• Remove & delete all data permanently deletes everything associated with that student in the class.

If the same student ended up on your roster twice (for example a pending invite and the account they actually signed up with), you can combine them.

1. Press and hold one of the rows and tap Merge with…. The class needs at least two students.
2. The top of the screen shows how many lessons and repertoire pieces will move.
3. Pick the student to merge into, then confirm with Merge.

All lessons, repertoire and events move to the student you picked. If one of the two is a pending placeholder, StaveFlow always merges it into the real account, whichever row you started from. Both students must be in the same class.

Inside a class, tap the search icon to find a student by name or email, and use the sort toggle to switch between A to Z and Z to A.

• An orange Pending badge means the student hasn't joined yet.
• "Family account" under a name means a parent manages that student's profile.
• A lock icon means the student's subscription has expired. They can still view their history but can't use the class fully until they resubscribe.

1. Open the class, tap + and choose Unassigned Items.
2. For each lesson or piece, tap Move to Student and pick who it belongs to.
3. Tap Done.

1. In a class, tap + and choose Add Lesson. Or open a student's Lessons tab and tap +.
2. Pick the student (or Unassigned) and the class.
3. Set the date and time.
4. Optionally tap Tap to add notes… to write notes and add a resource link.
5. Tap Save Lesson.

Each lesson is scheduled individually. There's no repeating-lesson option yet.

Open a lesson and tap Edit Notes. The notes editor supports bold, italic, underline, larger or smaller text, and five colors (black, red, blue, green and purple).

Notes save automatically a moment after you stop typing. Done saves one last time; Cancel discards unsaved changes.

Add a link (a video, a backing track, a website) in the Resource Link section of a lesson, or when creating or editing it. Your student can tap Open Link to follow it.

In a lesson's Photos & Videos section:

• Add Photo/Video picks from your photo library.
• Camera takes a photo or records a video right in the app.
• Add Staff opens a blank music staff you can draw on. It's saved as an image, and you can reopen it later with the pencil icon on its thumbnail. On iPhone, drawing on a staff works in landscape only.

Tap a thumbnail's caption to rename it. Files can be up to 200 MB.

Tap Mark Complete in the lesson. Your student (and their family) gets a notification that notes and badges are ready to review. They aren't notified before that, so write your notes first. Tap Mark Incomplete to undo.

Open the lesson, tap Edit, make your changes and tap Save Changes. Notes are edited separately with Edit Notes, so their formatting is preserved.

Swipe left on the lesson in the list, or open it and tap Delete.

On a student's Lessons tab, tap the Sort pill to switch between Newest First and Oldest First.

1. Open the Repertoire tab and tap +.
2. Enter the title, composer, and an optional note, and pick a status: Learning, Polishing or Mastered.
3. Add the music with Scan Sheet Music (uses the camera), Choose Photos, or Choose PDF.
4. Tap Save Piece.

For a piece with several pages, choose the photos in page order, page 1 first (up to 20). StaveFlow combines them into one PDF.

1. Tap a piece to open it full screen.
2. Tap the pencil icon to start drawing.
3. Use the tool picker to switch between pen, marker, highlighter, eraser, lasso and ruler, and to change color.
4. Draw with your finger or Apple Pencil.

Your markings save automatically and appear on your student's copy live, even if they already have it open. Tap Save any time to save immediately; you'll see "Saved!" when it's done. Markings resize correctly between iPhone and iPad, and the original sheet music file is never changed.

Working from a book with many pieces? Bookmark the ones your student is practicing so you can both jump straight to them.

1. Open the sheet music and go to the first page of the piece.
2. Tap the bookmark icon (top left), then +.
3. Give it a name like "Piece #5 – Minuet in G" and tap Save. If you leave it blank, it's named after the page number.

To rename or delete a bookmark, swipe left on it or press and hold. Your student sees bookmarks right away. Bookmarks appear on files with more than one page.

Open the piece, tap ···, then Edit Piece Info. Change what you need and tap Save Changes. To use a different sheet music file, add the piece again.

Open the piece and tap the share icon to AirPrint it, save it, or send it.

Swipe left on the piece in the Repertoire list, or open it and tap ··· then Delete Piece.

1. Go to the Events tab and tap +.
2. Enter a title and choose a type: Exam, Concert or Event.
3. Set the date and time, and optionally a location and notes.
4. Under Assign Students, tap each student who should see it. You can pick students from any of your classes, or add them later.
5. Tap Create Event.

To edit, open the event, tap Edit, then Save Changes. To delete, swipe left on it in the Events list.

1. Open a lesson and scroll to Badges.
2. Swipe through the badge strip and tap a badge to award it. A green checkmark appears.
3. Tap it again to take it back.

There's no limit; award any badge as often as you like. Your student gets a notification when they receive a new one.

Tap your avatar (top right), then Subscribe, Resubscribe or Manage Subscription, depending on your plan. Choose a monthly or yearly plan.

Subscriptions are handled by Apple. Tap your avatar, then Manage Subscription, which opens Apple's subscription screen where you can cancel. You can also go to Settings › your name › Subscriptions on your iPhone or iPad.

You won't be able to add new lessons or repertoire until you resubscribe, and you'll see a banner in the app saying so. Everything you've already created stays visible to your students.
