Great! Composer could use a bit of work though

Melana :)

Honestly I’ve seen a lot of reviews saying that this app has a bunch of problems, but I disagree. Sure, it has a tiny glitch every week or so, but that’s no reason to uninstall it and say that it glitches all the time. I have apps that actually DO glitch multiple times a day, and this is not one of them. The only thing that SLIGHTLY annoys me is that so power shuts down randomly. But it saves your progress, and everything is fine after that, so it doesn’t really bother me that much. The real reason I’m writing this review is because of one TINY little detail of something think they could improve. I am a composer, not actually, but I compose on this app. I am a musician, and it annoys me when they don’t give you the option to do things that are a little more complex in composer. Like changing time signatures in the middle, giving the ‘piece’ dynamics, or putting in a triplet. I have found ways around the triplet thing, but it’s very difficult. I also wish that they would put some lower notes in, as the notes go very high but not very low. I also feel like more complex time signatures should be a thing as well. The other thing is it’s hard to get smoola, and the songs cost a lot of it. I feel like that issue is self-explanatory, but I wish they would do something about that. Now that my suggestions are out of the way, I can say that this app is great. It’s so different from the other piano apps that I’ve tried downloading (which I uninstalled after a week because I didn’t like them), and I love it’s uniqueness. Playing the songs are very fun, and doing it with the artist singing is even better and creative. I would recommend this app for anyone, regardless of it’s tiny issues.


Trash

This used to be a good game, it really was. Until the developers decided money was more important. Everyone is going to delete your game. Fix this trash.


Problem with “composer”

Crystal_Leopard

I had been working on “composing” a song on this app for days. It’s now been finished for months. I can’t publish it. It always says “song failed to publish. Please check your internet connection and try again.” However, my connection is perfectly fine. At this point, I am 100% sure that there are absolutely no problems with my WiFi connectivity. I also checked it by using a different device. I tried publishing an unfinished song and it worked. So obviously my WiFi isn’t the problem since there was no problem publishing a song using a different device. I have checked on this problem after every update but it still persists. I’m quite disappointed that I am unable to publish a song that I worked on for several hours and days.


Doesn’t even open

Can’t even open the app. Just loads indefinitely


Ok app but WAY too much money for subscription

TheRiot81

This app is a decent piano playing app with a good catalogue of songs to play. However, what they charge for a subscription (which you absolutely need if you want to play more than 1 song per day) is completely overpriced! Save your money and buy a real keyboard and play for real.


Pay for your own compositions :(

I believe if someone took the time to provide music to your audience you should at least give them their own composition free to play but this is not the case. You need to pay the subscription or do 30 things for the “smoola” needed to play your piece. This is truly disgraceful. I won’t even bring up the amount of ads and no offline capability.


No Download?

SnowFolem1238

A lot of the songs in my songbook won’t let me play them any more, including five, FIVE, of my composed songs. They just say it failed to download. This is very disappointing, as I put a lot of work into those song and now they cannot be played; not to mention all the other songs that I spent smoola on and now cannot play. Please fix this quickly.


Had this back on my iPad 2

hi man how are ya

You NEED an iPad to play this well. The button inputs are way to close and I find myself constantly missing buttons to press. But an iPad makes it far easier


Ad! Ad! Ad!

Mama_Pike07

I hate after every. single. thing. I do, THERES AN AD! I understand been paid to play ads but seriously??? The excessive amount of ads takes literally all the fun out of this truly awesome game. Very unfortunate.


Offline?

I remember that you used to be able to play offline with the songs in your songbook and now it doesn’t let me. I miss being able to play offline.
