Is it possible to share private scores in mobile app?
I'm transcribing scores for my choir. I do this so that the other members can use the volume mixer in the app, which is absolutely great for helping everyone learn their parts, both solo and in harmony.
However, the scores we're using are (of course) copyrighted, so I don't want to share them publicly. Is it possible to share private scores in the mobile app?
(I know I can share private scores in a browser using a link, but AFAIK that would require a Musescore Pro subscription from every member of the choir in order to enable the volume mixer, and that's not gonna happen.)

on MuseScore.com you create a group, add the scores in question to that group and invite your choir members to that group, they should then be able to see your scores.
In the mobile app the users just need to put in the same credentials as they would on MuseScore.com and should then see your scores in the mobilebe app too

Thanks! I didn't know about groups. This solved my problem brilliantly.
Am I correct in assuming that enabling the volume mixer on the website is done on a per-user basis? Is there any way for a choir or similar to pay to enable the volume mixer for all of the group's scores without requiring all the individual users to pay for a Pro membership (which, in our case, is entirely unrealistic)?

To view, hear or download scores from MuseScore.com a pro membership is not needed at all, just for being able to upöload (or rather have visible) more then 5 score and have some additional statistics, and being able to provide parts, all on your side only.

Sorry, I probably wasn't clear enough: I am talking specifically about the volume mixer.
The only real reason we are trying out Musescore is because you are able to practice and get to know your part by muting the other parts in the volume mixer. Unfortunately, the volume mixer seems to require a Pro membership on the listener's part, and I was just wondering if there was any way for a single entity/business (the choir) to pay for enabling the volume mixer on all scores in our Musescore group, even if the group members do not have Pro memberships themselves.

I was under the impression the volume mixer was available on scores where the uploader has a Pro account? I don't have one and I've used the mixer on others scores.

Jeetee is correct. If you are a Pro member, all your scores will have the mixer enabled for everyone.

Oh, yay! Great! I'll sign up for a pro account right away then!

Uh, ran into problems right away... It says "the mixer is only available for synthesizer", and when I enable that, all the voices sound really staccato instead of legato (they sound legato in the app, even when using the mixer). Is this a bug?

Nevermind, I filed a bug report here: https://musescore.org/en/node/126226

Hmm, I see it being available, but can't use it, "The mixer and synthesizer playback are not supported by your browser/platform". Windows 7 and 10, IE11. Seems to work, sort of, for Windows 10/Edge. So what bowsers/plattforms are supported, and why isn't IE11?

@Jojo will make a public list of all supported platforms and browser soon, and explain why it does not work for older browsers/platforms. Basically, it's about missing HTML5 audio libraries built into the browser.
