I love the app, it's super easy to navigate though, it's nice to be able to write music when ever I can on my phone, and I love it's simplicity, but for me one thing is missing, I'm not seeing the crazy things lile left hand pizzacato marking, and some other crazy stuff, but otherwise this app is super good, adds are basically minimal, and you can hear the notes when you place them to know if you put the correct note.

I feel like this app is underrated! It has everything I was looking for in a mobile score writing experience. Multiple instruments, notations, great playback, and a save button so you can always update your score. I was searching all over for a music writing app like this and honestly the others I've messed around with aren't nearly as good. Thank you to the devs for making this app!

This app is promising in many ways. I installed it, played around with it for a while, and promptly deleted it after being harassed by a few very intrusive (and noisy) adds and discovering that the only way to get rid of them is to sign up for a subscription. When are app developers going to face reality and realise that you can't have a subscription for everything in this world -- especially not apps you will probably only use occasionally.
