It's all right but just has a few problems 1.) the audio is glitchy and makes the track off beat 2.) all the instruments sound like a piano 3.) notes randomly come out of nowhere and ruin the rhythm. It's very fun to use though đź‘Ť

EDIT: 28/OCT/2024 i just changed my audio settings to 1024 samples, and it sounds much better. thx. Very good usage. Low quality synthetic instruments. very laggy when playing (Causes timing to be off). very good for writing and reading. will suggest more options for the drum set (splash, mid tom, and maybe others)

Great for writing down ideas on the go. There's some lag when moving around the score view, but it's consistent (instead of moving smoothly but occasionally stutterimg), so it doesn't bother me too much. I imagine this is just because of the limitations of mobile devices

1. The bar line in sheet music cannot be moved, which is frustrating. 2. You can't use custom symbols in the software, like the ones used in Eastern music that even appear in the key signature. 3. It's not possible to indicate for guitar notation where the first finger should bar a fret. 4. You can't simultaneously specify which right-hand finger plucks a note and which left-hand finger frets the same note. 5. In the project management page, you can't lock finished projects so that they

This application is as good as the musescore on the computer, only there are some features missing, please add more features

This is an app that every musician should know about. Begin creating new music on the fly.

I really like the features offered in this app and I think this can be the app that I will use often, but I think there can be many things to be added in this app: like (1) adding text below the staves for 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc lyrics, and something like (2) hiding the rest on the first bar, or (3) the size of the title, subtitle or the composer text can be edited. One more, (4) I can edit a little bit the layout of the staves so I can also arrange the text according to the way I want

This app is massive. I love everything about it and it's compatibility with all the devices I have is unparalleled. The best "on the go" notation app for me. I only wish we could import audio to arrange alongside. But overall a fantastic app

So I love this app, but I've got a horror story. I've been using Notion mobile for a couple of years now, and it's fantastic. Like 5/5. The reason I took a star off is because I got a new phone recently and (despite having registered my acount) none of my music transferred. I lost like 2 and a half years worth of work and I have no clue how to get it back, nor if that's even possible. So the app is great for composing, but make sure you save your scores elsewhere too!

(Edit for dev response: it's the same on multiple devices but at the same time it's your job to optimise it for all devices.) Much worse than it was on iOS 10 years ago. Moving the score around is laggy and frustrating, touch input with a stylus is very inaccurate and requires very hard taps. There is no tool that allows you to move notes without inputting more so you're left hammering on the undo button which, because of the laggy input, either doesn't respond or opens the instrumentation menu
