Easy to use, needs more options

Great to use, would be great if you could enlarge the stave and choose how many bars you want. In addition, would be great to have the option to make comments for scales and exercises. Lastly, there isn’t violin features such as fingering numbers and symbols for up and down bows, lower half etc. That would be awesome. I’d would be able to complete my children’s book for violin.

Baggy, clumsy editing, dubious privacy policy

Generally pretty well executed but some parts made me uninstall pretty quickly. Laying out notes is straightforward until you make a mistake. You can’t select a note and drag it to the correct note. You have to switch to select, select the note and then move it. I can live with that. What is irritating is the keyboard icon is next to the select icon and I kept pressing that by mistake. Instead of opening a keyboard editor, it throws you over to the App Store to download a separate app, which although I did not try it out, for all intents and purposes looks to be almost the same app. Why isn’t that feature just built into the one app? The upgrade nag screens are deliberately hard to dismiss and generally very annoying. I can deal with the clumsy editing, but the keyboard throwing you out to the App Store and the nag screens are very much deliberate design choices. Soft pass.

The privacy policy isn’t great. They “obtain or infer demographic information”. They also let Facebook or Google to snoop on you if you need to connect to their services through this app for some reason. Hard pass.

Great but missing some vital things

This app is fantastic for song writing, but I noticed some missing features. Most notably, there is no 8va or peddle mark to use while writing songs which I have found a little bit annoying at times. Can you please incorporate these features. Great work!
