Stage Plot Guru for iPad 4+

Very disappointed.

I bought this app expecting to be able to use it but then I found out that you can’t even use the app until you buy the add ons. You can’t customize anything without the extra purchase and for that, I give it 2 stars.

They responded to me to say that what I said was not true. (See below) So afterwards I tried the app again. I warn you, anytime you click an instrument, it asks you to pay an extra 10.99 CAD. Very disappointed.

Hello Sjaudgkadnzjejxnd
We urge you to please write in to us at SPGTechBugs@gmail.com so we can help you directly, and so you can take advantage of our customer support. Your review is simply not true. You must not be talking about the same app. There are NO "additional" in app purchases required for StagePlot Guru for iPad. There is a one time cost (currently at $7.99 usd), and EVERYTHING is included for the lifetime of the app. This includes hundreds of industry standard props (which we consistently update, as well as new functionality, which we are always working on. We also offer customer support for our users via Facebook or direct email. This review is very misleading to users who could otherwise find this app useful. We will be requesting the removal of this review, as it is in no way truthful. IF you are experiencing an issue that requires you to pay additional money above the $7.99 usd, then this is a glitch that we need to know about, but we need to speak with you directly, as it might be local to your market. It would be the FIRST time we have heard of this issue. You are not supposed to be paying money for any additional in-app purchases. If you have additional questions please feel free to email us directly at SPGTechBugs@gmail.com and we would happily walk you through the process of buying the Pro Version of SPG from the app store. Otherwise, please consider updating your review to truthfully reflect our product or kindly remove it, so you are not misleading potential users. Thank You--StagePlot Guru for iPad Team.

Not reliable

I bought it and even then it’s a lot of work to place things on a stage, and then you save everything, regularly, and when you go back to it later on, everything has moved a bit to the right and the stage plot is to be redone basically, unless you actually print it or screenshot it before you turn off the app. That’s on a brand new iPad Air 5th generation.
Been waiting over a month for an update to fix that major bug, nothing so far.
And moving the props is not an easy task… you think you’re moving one and you’re moving the other especially if they are overlapping… the UI is not coded very well…

Lots of work for poor results.

Need to create an account-hmmm ok.
Basic instrumentation requires an immediate 11$ upgrade- can’t even put guitars,drums,bass,vocals on the stage without purchase
Instructions are in video format. Great for YouTube, terrible for use in app.

Downloaded and deleted. Too bad. Has potential. Simplify and don’t be so greedy.

Hi-
I’m sorry you had a bad experience with our app. Please let me know what we can do differently. We are constantly trying to improve the app for our users.

The account management is necessary in order for users to store their plots.

Additionally I’d be more than happy to have a conversation with you about your experience to learn how we could improve.

We do offer 24 hour chat help at stageplotguru.com and try to be as accessible as possible to help our users in case of any issues via email at any time at spg@stageplotguru.com.

If you haven’t gone through the proper channels to get a refund, I’m also more than happy to assist with that.

I know we don’t always get it right, and really appreciate your insight and feedback.

I hope we can earn the opportunity to redeem your one star review.

I look forward to your reply.
