Cellphone App
Hi, gang!!!
I could install the MuseScore App to cellphones (Android), and I could to see and play some scores from musescore.com, but I couldn't load and/or play any scores that I put on the cellphone memory.
The App tells me that I need the "payed" version of the App (something about a "songbook").
What did I do wrong? or Is it "in purpose"? ???
Greetings & Blessings from Chile!!!!!!!

You did nothing wrong. The MuseScore app for Android doesn't let you open scores except if they are on MuseScore.com. If you want to open external scores, you need to buy the MuseScore songbook app.

Why is it this way? ???
Isn't more easy to read something from the device than from the web? ???
Which is the final target of this? ???
I can't see any reason for that limitation.

The reason is that we need some money to keep on developing MuseScore, maintaining MuseScore.org and MuseScore.com and developing the MuseScore apps.

Is it the same to tablets and netbooks? ???

same for all Andoid and iOS devices.
The fully blown MuseScore program needs Windows, Mac OSX or Linux (but is free).
