How access works
Cadance is free to download. Class Planning Mode includes browsing, playlists, Teacher Notebook, sharing, and track previews. A pass or subscription unlocks sustained playback; each music source and feature follows its relevant access rules.
Bring your own music
Cadance isn’t bundled with music and doesn’t sell music. Use music in your device library, import local files with Spark and above, work with Syllabus material, and use Apple Music subscription features on supported tiers.
Business expense note
For many teachers, a Cadance subscription may be a deductible business expense depending on your country and circumstances.
This is not tax advice. If in doubt, check with your accountant or tax professional.
Pricing questions
How does Cadance pricing work?
Cadance combines free Class Planning Mode, flexible passes, and optional subscriptions. New users receive 14 free Day Passes and 1 free Perfect Practice Pass. A Day Pass unlocks a full teaching day, while a Perfect Practice Pass keeps one selected song ready for 30 days. Day Passes never expire.
What can I do with Cadance for free?
Class Planning Mode includes browsing, playlist creation and editing, Teacher Notebook, sharing, discovery, and 15-second previews of any track. Sustained playback follows the relevant pass, subscription, and music-source access rules.
Do Day Passes expire?
No. Day Passes never expire. They stay in your account until you activate them, ready whenever you teach.
Will pricing be different in my country?
Often, yes. Apple sets local prices and currencies. The App Store always shows the final price before you subscribe.
Which subscription tier is right for me?
Choose Day Passes for flexible full teaching days, or a Perfect Practice Pass when one song is the focus. Spark supports regular local-music teaching; Artist adds downloaded Apple Music playback; Patron adds full Apple Music streaming, Focus Player, and Syllabus material. Current local pricing appears in the App Store.
Can I subscribe AND buy Day Passes?
Yes. A Day Pass temporarily unlocks Patron-tier access regardless of your current subscription. For example, a Spark subscriber can buy a Day Pass to access Apple Music streaming for a one-off workshop without upgrading their subscription.
What if I run out of Day Passes mid-class?
That won't happen. Once a Day Pass activates, you have unrestricted access until midnight. Cadance will never interrupt a class. The only check happens at the 15-second mark on your first sustained track of the day — well before any class begins.
