Tends to crash – Notion Review

I want to like the app but the stability is poor. So I question my time investment if it’s not gonna be reliable. Update: Developer responded that I can report what I was doing when app crashed. While I would be happy to turn on crash reports, I don’t want to donate my valuable time to manually report issues - especially since there appear to be a multitude of problems. Here is an example of weird unreliable behavior. The names of instruments on staves is not same as those shown in the mixer. Why? Also I opened a project I had been working on and touched the screen. Something got pasted over part my score. I didn’t recognize where it came from and Undo didn’t take it away. Quitting out of that score and going back to it did restore that part of the score but it appeared to me that some other smaller part had been removed. Again the undo made no difference. I have not ramped up fully on using this app. So perhaps becoming an expert would allow me to avoid the pitfalls. But that’s not the level of quality and usability I expect from Presonus as a long time customer of their other products. Update 2: I learned more about the weird behavior of instrument names on staves. There are multiple names for each one and I managed to get them to be as I wanted - EXCEPT FOR ONE which refused to update. It’s a bug. I have spent decades developing software, and this would seem to be the kind of bug you can only have if the code is implemented in a fatally messy way. Really does not inspire any confidence. I am attempting to use the app on iPad Pro 2nd gen. I really want to like the app.
