The app looks very basic, but this app is really powerful and has really helped me learn to play songs. Buying the $7.99 unlock allows me to find songs I want to play on Musescore, download the Midi track, and learn to play it. This is a super easy to use app, and it allows you to connect your Midi capable keyboard to play on real keys!

Don't get me wrong, this app is fantastic, but some instruments in the built-in soundfont on the mobile version are of noticably lower quality compared to the PC version, most notably the piano instruments. I had this app back when the built-in soundfont was introduced, and when it was first introduced, all the instruments in that soundfont sounded the exact same between the PC and mobile versions. I would greatly appreciate it if this problem is fixed in a later update.

I love this app, but there are some issues with it. It keeps randomly locking itself, saying (no connection to store) despite prior purchase. Only way to fix this is to restart multiple times. My internet is indeed working. I think having the key labels on the sheet music would be amazing
