no, low rating because it's not easy to use at first, & maybe because it takes a waste of space on left when vertical. i got 3 stars for one of your app, music notation. now i give 4 for this. i'm still playing & figuring out of what this app can do such as guitar string symbol.

I would be grateful if you add gamelan, and angklung in chromatic percussion...and, is it always got lag when the sheet reached +40 pages?

I think I like this, but I'm not 100% yet. Do you have a tutorial detailing all features? I'm wondering about things like selecting whole passages in a score and transposing. $10 is a little pricey for an app, but I'll gladly pay it if it can do everything I need it to, and if there's an easy way to learn how to use everything.

I would give it a better rating if it weren't for one thing: I can't save or export any of my songs.

I am using the pro version on a Note 4 running Android 6.0.1. This is a very capable app. However in my experience, it is not yet stable enough and some GUI items still need improvement. The addition of piano based note entry is useful. For now, the similar app Passacaglia, from the same author, is more stable, though missing the piano interface.

This is the most full-featured notation program for Android that I am aware of.

Couldn't get it to work. The "keyboard" was non existent just a grey bar where it was supposed to be. If I hit the area above the bar it would make a sound so it obviously a software issue. Edit: upgraded my rating to a three star because the app seems good and the developer is working hard on a fix. Seems to be an issue with my version of note 3. Once it's all worked out I can reevaluate.

It seems like a great app as it has lots more options than any other I've seen. However it won't let me put in any notes so I can't actually compose

Terrific app, I am unaware of any other which is anywhere as good. Extremely stable and packed with features. If you need a portable notation programme look no further

D70%
by D####:

Highly recommended. I have tried most of the Android music notation apps out there and have been repeatedly disappointed. This one is both full-featured and usable (unlike most others) - I have actually been able to compose music on it. While a bit easier on my tablet's bigger screen, I am finding it effective on my 5" phone screen too. Plus the dev had been very responsive.

I have tried almost every music notation app on Android and this has been by far the best. It was well worth the purchase. Keep up the great work.

Single handedly the VERY best advanced composition app PERIOD

I love it but I want to know how to make slurs and tie notes. I hope the creator replies to me of how to do that.

Could not find the "Erase" and "Back" buttons.
