Alright App -- Recent Problems

I think this app serves it's purpose pretty well as a mobile composition tool. There are a few things that could be better, but from a free app, it is decent enough and there are ways of utilizing it to it's max. I first used this app about two years ago when I first started writing music. Since then I have found better tools away from the mobile devices (MuseScore, for example), but recently I wanted to start up an old iPad Mini that could not be updated past iOS 9.3.5. Luckily enough, this app appears to support from iOS 8+, so I thought I was good. Unfortunately, on this old device it only crashes every time I open the app. There is just simply not enough that an iPhone (for example) can give to be the perfect composition app, and it really requires a laptop (at least) to do everything. But for a (free) mobile composition app, it does the job pretty well. I hope this bug can be fixed (whether it is the apps fault or my device, I'm not sure), but from my past experiences with this app, it is a great starter and is worth a shot.

Best composing app for phones (update 7.9)

I discovered this app about 3 and half years ago and I honestly didn’t think this app was any good. Some of the instruments didn’t even match the sounds, some were too loud, you could only make a song do big before the playback lags so you have to make a new score to continue. I didn’t let it stop me though because this was really only app I could use to play around with and make my own music. Time progressed and this app got noticeably better, most of the issues with the instruments were fixed but everything else remained. I would say this app would be considered a 4 star but this new update fixed my biggest issue: articulation and dynamics. These 2 things were non existent before this update. After seeing that this update gave us the access to really get more musicality out of the scores, that’s enough to bump this all the way up to 5 stars. I’ve noticed the lag playback on big scores is a problem and the auto-scroll still doesn’t work but I’m able to work around these problems. If you’re looking for an app that give you access to make scores on the fly for relatively low price for the full experience, I wholeheartedly recommend this. Trust me, it’s the most user friendly.

One big problem...

So I’ve had this app for a little while and it’s amazing. The only issue is that recently when I’ve been using the keys, (like the key the song is in) it makes two instruments the same key which isn’t right. I know there is a switch for using concert pitch, but that’s not the issue. That’s one of the first things I make sure I change at the start of a new song. So, one of my current songs is in the key of B flat I believe and so B flat clarinet shouldn’t have any accidentals, but it’s showing up as the same as the C flute who has 2. I have 2 B flat trumpets and those show up perfectly fine. It’s just one or two instruments and it’s very frustrating. With this issue fixed, I’d give it 4 stars. One suggestion I have is adding in trills, falls, and maybe changing the way to put in staccatos, marcatos, tenuos, and stuff like that. I’ve been avoiding them in my songs because I’d prefer not to click on each and every note. Because with every note, I end up clicking 4 or 5 different things. That adds up pretty quick, especially with a song with like 50 or more. So maybe have a separate tab or button where the notes and note lengths are so they are more accessible. With these taken into account, I’d give it 5 stars.

Stopped working properly

I have been enjoying this app on my iPhone and iPad for almost a year. I frequently write music on my iPad, and then air drop it to my iPhone. After the latest IOS update, I have been unable to air drop my MIDI files from one device to another. When airdropping from iPad to iPhone, it automatically tries to open the MIDI file in iMovie and I get an error message. I deleted iMovie, but now when I try to airdrop sheet music/MIDI files from iPad to iPhone, it gives me two options: store the file in iCloud, or buying an app from the App Store in order to open it, even though I have Score Creator on both devices. I have the same problem when airdropping from iPhone to iPad; it gives me the option to open it in iMovie, or saving it to Files. I have tried deleting the apps on both devices and then downloading them again and that did not help. Both of my devices are running on IOS 13.2, and the Score Creator app is running on version 7 on both devices. Like I said, I've enjoyed using this app for a while now and haven't had any problems until now. I live in a nursing home and spend a majority of my day writing songs. It is cumbersome that I cannot transfer files from one device to another anymore. Please help.

Please read this. I’m beggin ya

I have had this app for a while and got the pro version like 2 years ago. I never really use the drums, but I made a song today and used them for the first time. They were really good. I liked that I could lay down quarter note bass drum notes in the measure and on top of that do a snare without opening any menus or tapping anything, you just click the notes in the bottom row and and the top row and it works. You technically have 8 beats per measure (in 4/4) 4 on the bottom and 4 on the top. In the new version it looks like there are 4 beats no matter what. In order to have a bass line and a snare you need to do 2 layers which is more difficult and overall, less convenient. Is there a way that that can be adjusted like having a button in settings which returns the software to the previous version, I do not mind losing the extra sounds. I just want to have the convenience again. Also. Is it possible to please add an electric guitar? Thank you for reading

Best music writing app I’ve found for iOS

I am really enjoying this app for when I don’t have my computer to use Musescore 2 on. There is one thing that I would like to have added into the writing capability though, you can add triplets in any note timing available currently, but I would like it if you could select how many notes you could write for 1 beat or for one measure of time in the music (example: 7 16th notes for one beat). Maybe have it set up like you have the time signature selection (7 / quarter [seven notes per quarter beat]), have a scroll wheel for the left selection (how many notes) and then another for the right selection (the time period in which those notes will take place like for a whole note, dotted half note, half note, dotted quarter note, etc.) and the timing for the notes that are in that beat can be selected by just selecting the time for the notes like you usually would. I hope this makes sense and that you could add this feature without too much difficulty.

Are you kidding me!?!

I spent my entire day writing a song! I was so extremely proud of it, so I went to try to copy it into a word document so I could print it, but guess what? You can only copy the first 20 bars of your song! My song was over 100 bars! Not only that, but you cannon play more than fifty bars of your song at a time! So stupid! I’m currently trying to write a musical and I thought this app would be the best thing it the world. Not only am I so disappointed that I wasted my whole day on this horrible app, I’m enraged that the app doesn’t warn you about the fact that you cannot send or copy a whole song! There’s no way anyone should ever pay 25 dollars for the full version of this app, especially since the free one is such a scam. Whoever made this app, I urge you to make it have the capabilities the full version has. No one is going to pay 25 dollars just so they can copy, paste, or send their song to someone else. If you bought the full version, that was a true waste of money. The creators of this app ruined something I worked so hard on and something that meant so much to me. I hope this on star review makes you feel good. You deserve to rot in hell!

Best music composing app!!!

I’m 16 and I play trombone in a high school band. With so many good songs and memorable parts in them, I wanted a way to get these tunes out of my head and onto paper. With this app, I was finally able to compose for myself instead of having to hand write the music for all parts. The transposing feature is a life saver. You only need to know one instrument, and then you could write songs for a symphony, or a marching band, or even a rock band. The only downside to this app is that the free version is only 30 measures long. However, the full version is purchasable within the free app for 30 dollars. It is a one time purchase, no reoccurring payments. Almost every other app required a computer browser or a monthly payment to create your music. This app gives you the same capabilities as you would get on a computer, which is so hard to come across on mobile devices these days. So glad I found this app, and you will be too!

Great!

Amazing app. I love it! However, I have a couple things that I think could make it a little better than it already is. (*=important) First of all, I have a few glitches here and there. Nothing that ruins anything while I’m composing, except for one where I have a 32nd note followed by a quarter note (I’m remaking the 21st Century Fox theme). During playback, the 32nd note plays fine, and then the quarter note plays like a 32nd note and just stops. You hear a quick beep where there should be a longer quarter note. It works fine with 16th notes, it just sounds better with 32nd notes. *Also, I was wondering if you could go back to the old sounds for trumpet, violin, trombone, and tuba. The new ones I’m not liking a ton because they mess up the sounds of some of the songs I’ve made.* *I was also wondering if you could add trills and falls (by fall I mean that thing where trumpets start on one notes and fall to another slowly). That sort of thing.* *One more thing. The slurs, accents, and dynamics don’t actually do anything during playback. You can see them, but you never hear any instruments get quieter or louder, or accent, or slur.* Besides all those points I LOVE this app!! Keep it up!!

Very pleased

I’m very pleased with this app. I don’t know much about arranging sheet music, and I am not the most tech savvy gal in the world, but when my elderly mother asked me to arrange a song for her on violin that we could play together while I play piano, I found this app. In one day, using only the free version, I was able to arrange the music for her and email it to her in PDF. The app also lets you export the music file so you can hear it. It only lets you export to MIDI, which doesn’t play on my iPhone, but I found a free file converter and converted the music file to MP3. I immediately bought the pro version because I wanted to support the developer and thank the developer for making something that was easy for me to use. I haven’t tried other instruments, but this works perfectly for my needs, so I purchased the lifetime version immediately, and it was worth the price. Thank you.

New Audio Export

I’ve been using this app for a very long time and it’s actually not a bad one. I use it quite often and it has become a hobby now. I’ve been waiting for a MP3 export for a very long time and I just realized to my surprise that they finally added that. I was excited when I saw the update history. But when I tested it, my disappointment was enormous. Every time I use it my app crashes. It works on certain pieces of music, but those pieces that I’m referring to are just tests that I do to find new chords and stuff, in other words, they really aren’t consider “pieces”. I know, they added it recently. I encourage the team to keep working on it, it really would be amazing to export MP3 files. I’m not going to be like one of those people who say: “iT cOuLd’Ve BeEn 5 StArS bUt ThErE iS jUsT oNe PrObLeM”. Here, get the 5 stars, I think you guys deserve it.

Incredible app, but can be improved

I would really enjoy a way to swing notes. I write a lot of stuff with swing eights and it is painfully inconvenient to have to write in triplets with the first notes slurred. I would really really really appreciate a swing feature. Also, you used to be able to switch between interments really well but that has gotten worse and worse. If I write a part in bass chef and try to switch it to bari sax, it plays an octave above where it should. If I switch any c instrument to any saxophone it doesn’t transpose and just plays an octave above where it should. I would love a fix for this. Like I said, it used to work perfectly switching from any instrument to any instrument but in the past few months it has stopped working.

Glitchy playback sounds

Hello creator I have to say I really enjoy and love the app in general but the one main problem is the sounds when I want to hear what I’ve created, everything sounds so glitch and broken which really REALLY frustrates me on many levels, I restarted my phone and then I came to the conclusion it was the app itself. I’m very disappointed cause before the sounds weren’t glitchy or broken up but currently it’s just too much for me to bare with any longer. Even with a simple song with half notes and whole notes each transition to another note always breaks up and glitches out to the point where you can’t really hear the song correctly. I beg of you please fix this problem in a later build or update cause I really hate to see my all of my hard work being left to nothing but a waste of time.

Works well

Updated - I heard from the developer today about how to upgrade to lifetime. I have used this app all semester for a college harmony and voice leading class. Except for the lack of a way to include figured bass, it has worked well on my iPad, which is what I take to class. Unfortunately, I do have to hand write the figured bass, which can be a problem for theory students. I wanted to upgrade to the lifetime app rather than manage a recurring three-month subscription but couldn’t figure out how. The developer contacted me today to help me resolve this issue.

Very much worth it

Let’s be real. The app has a couple problems. It’s not perfect. Yet the positives outweigh the bugs and issues by a landslide. They’re always making additions and changes to make the app better. When I first downloaded this app it was an intuitive but pretty bare-bones experience. Now you have so many more options to fine-tune your song than before. It seems like they really care about making the experience better for its users. They’re not making you pay for every little thing and it’s easy to use on a phone (unlike a lot of other composing apps). This app is very much worth it and I highly recommend the download.

Overall amazing

I’ve had this app for only a year now but ever since I started I loved this app I always had so much fun writing music and I even have a few cool songs in the works right now like Mario kart 8 big blue and we are from one piece. If someone wants to write music on their phone and try this app I cannot recommend the pro version more, it’s way better with the ability to play more than 50 measures, send bigger songs through email and all that pdf stuff, but like I said if you wanna get serious about writing not only is this app amazing but get the pro version and support these amazing people who crafted a way underrated app. Thanks for reading

It’s good but..

The app itself is really nice, it’s easy to use, and it has a lot of good features. The only problem I’m having is printing the music. I understand that the creators need money, but I put a lot of work into the music I made only to be told I can’t print it. Although it is the creators app, it is not the app’s music. I wouldn’t mind watching a few advertisem*nts, but not everyone is able to use Apple Pay. I don’t think I will be using this app again. Nevertheless, if you are able to have the updated version of the app, I highly recommend it. Also, sometimes the app will close by itself, deleting all of your work. This has happened several times to me. Normally I am able to prevent too much loss by saving my work every now and then, but recently whenever I try to save the app closes. This is a big setback for me.

Great App, But Here’s A Suggestion

I love the app! However, I think it’d be a great improvement if we were able to create folders to organize our songs. I don’t like how the songs are just listed down alphabetically. It makes it a little hard for me to find the song I need to work on since I have created numerous different songs. Having the ability to create labeled folders would make navigation to find a song much much easier and overall would keep things organized. Just an idea!

I love this app!!!

I just got this app like a few minutes ago, but i am already in love!!! I like how you can make music for any instument, no matter how well known. For example, I play the euphonium, and i can write music for myself! I recommend this app to every person who wants to write music without having to use a ruler to get the staff lines perfectly straight! P.s. The ads are rare and the one i have encountered was music related, so i dont really mind.

Best App To Learn Composition

This app is amazing to learn composition, is very simple of course but it has amazing things as well. One of those are that the app is improving from time to time, which means that some bugs are getting fixed and new instruments are being introduced into this app. This app is great for someone who is learning composition or getting into composing. But there is just one bit of a problem, the drum rolls sound like a motor of a car that just turned on. Please developers fix this issue. Other than that great app.

Instrument problems, but great app!

I love this app and it’s one of the best apps that I’ve seen. I love the feature where you can add in instruments but there is a slight problem with 2 of the instruments. You can’t hear the clarinet at all when other instruments are in, and you can barely hear it in solo parts. Also, all of the saxes sound horrible with other instruments, so maybe adjust the sound to have it be less annoying. If you read this, please take my review as advice. On the other hand, your app is great! Thanks!

Few more suggestions to bring

I love this app and I want to help make it better by giving you a few suggestions. To begin, adding trills would be nice to have, and even would be to add ritardando (or just rit. ) which is where you slowly slow down the tempo. And if you have a rit. then you should add accelerando which is basically the opposite of ritardando, slowly increase the tempo. Another thing would be to incorporate the dynamics, as in where you can actually hear them. The last thing I wanna suggest is adding Cut-time.

4 years ago, Ggghffhggggggggggttttt

Great but could be better

I absolutely love this app. I've been creating music for years, but this is one of the few apps I could find which allowed for not only multiple instruments, but to create and playback the composed music. It's extremely variable in score, key, etc. the only problem I find is that when you go to play it back, accents and staccatos, and slurs aren't replicated in sound even if it's written in. I hope this gets fixed, and when it does I’ll give it a perfect five stars!

5 years ago, Awesome RPG & Fighting

More suggestions!

Please incorporate the dynamics in the songs, such as slurring the notes when there is slur, or the notes increasing in volume when there is a crescendo. Also some of the woodwind instruments like Bassoon or Oboe are so quiet when played next to other instruments, please fix! The screen of this app freezes and turns grey when an ad ends. The starting screen freezes sometimes. The viola’s high notes are a little weird. Slurring more than three notes does not slur them but slurring two does.

4 years ago, anything i can do

Pretty good

Yeah the creator is good it’s just that those reviews like “where is the rest” is just people not looking. Only problem is that when you change the volumes they 1. Don’t stay 2. No articulation/change in volume. Please add forte and stuff like that before adding new instruments. We can already make enough music, but adding “bells” isn’t helping. I know, I know, this makes it look bad, but download it and play around it’s pretty simple. Those older reviews are outdated.

Great App!!! (Needs one thing)

I have used this app for quite awhile, although I have had a few issues with the sound quality, HOWEVER, with the newest update I have no issue with the sound, my only complaint is that the dynamics do not do anything, i have tested it many times, going from ppp to fff without any change in volume, if the next update has that i would be greatly pleased. Thank you so much for the wonderful app though!!! :)

Awesome sans 1 Crucial thing

This is a really handy little app for quickly and neatly writing music and being able to hear it back my only complaint is a huge deal to me, and that is that once I leave a song I can no longer edit it. I will have to completely rewrite the entire piece if I made one mistake in the song and hope I do not mess this duplicate up. UPDATE: I do mean edit, not Undo/Redo. If there is a button or something I am missing to be able to edit I would very much appreciate that it be pointed out, because I cannot figure it out.

Meh

This IS a good app if ur looking to MAKE music, but to test it, ah na. It doesn’t recognize sharps or flats, or at least for Bb trumpet it doesn’t, idk about the other instruments tho. Also, every time I try to delete a score that’s faulty or bad, it just FREEZES this is annoying, especially if i set the tempo to 100, but accidentally hit 190, I can’t A. fog back to change the tempo, or. B. Delete the piece. But like I said before, this app is legit with making scores which is why I gave 3 and not 1-2 stars. If this was helpful please tag it so the makers of this app could respond, thanks!

Not Reliable

I have been using the paid version of this app for many years, and out of nowhere all the scores that I've made have been deleted. I didn't back them up before so now I have to find a new app and rewrite them all. This app is good for beginners, but if you're looking for a reliable score app, I would suggest looking into Flat or Musescore. There are many other problems I have with this app in terms of ease of use, but those are my final thoughts as I will be deleting the app shortly. Not worth the money spent for the full version.

Really good app just one thing I don’t like

When I first got this app I got the free version and it had all the features I needed but I came back to it one day they changed something about the amount of measures could be made and I got mad because it had a cap of how many could be played not made this is really the only feature I don’t like so can you tell me why you changed it and maybe change it back.

Score Creator

I love this app, and would totally give it a 5 star rating if it weren’t for this glitch. I’m writing a song in only piano, and every once in a while, when I come back to the song to edit it after saving it, the left hand bass clef turns into treble clef. All the notes are the same, they’re just an octave higher. I’ve made a new song, and rewritten my old song onto that three times, and it keeps going back to treble clef. It’s really annoying me, cause my song keeps getting longer and longer, and I have to keep rewriting it! Again, I LOVE this app, in fact, it’s the only decent app I’ve found that helps you write music, I just wish it didn’t have that glitch. Also, thank you for making this app, it really helped me to write my first song!!

I’ve been using this app for a little over a year, & I love it. It’s very easy to use, & it has almost everything you would need in a music app. It’s the best app for writing sheet music there is.

Better than others

I’ve used several composition apps, and most of them have a limited number of features. If they happen to have the features I want, they are trapped behind a monthly subscription I don't have the money for. This app lets me do everything I need without having to pay ridiculous amounts of money, and I appreciate it. 10/10 would recommend ❤️❤️❤️

The audio needs fixing

My only complaint it’s when I try to hear what I’ve composed, the dynamics don’t work, at all. Also if I compose for a whole orchestra the sound starts to break down and it starts to mute some instruments. Last but not least, sometimes if I compose a piece that it’s “too fast” the rhythm get messed up, and I’m just talking about 8th notes. I haven’t try complex rhythms with 16th and 32th notes. PS. It would be cool if I’d be able to copy and paste big chunks of music (several bars), not just a note, a chord or an arpeggio.

6 years ago, HBomb237

Help with one thing

Overall this is a very useful app, especially since it is free, but I think after one of the updates, instead of having the key signatures based on the instrument, it just has the same number of sharps or flats for every instrument which makes it nearly impossible to create something where different instruments have different key signatures. Just something I think needs to be fixed.

5 years ago, FNAF#1F

Add - Ins

Hi. I was wondering if you guys could add dynamics? And maybe spots where you’re able to speed up and slow down? The piece I am composing would sound better if it would slow down in a certain spot. And dynamics, it would sound better along with crescendos. And a possible fade in and out option with the notes... It just doesn’t sound correct when the notes just flat out stop when it sounds better when like whole notes are to fade out instead of just straight up stop.

Missing Instruments

I love how I can use my phone for creating different music compositions since I don’t have any programs for music compositions on my computer. Recently I’ve been trying to create a composition for a symphony orchestra, but I noticed that not all of the instruments are there in the app, for example, bar chimes (or mark tree) isn’t one of the options. Thanks for reading my review.

A major mistake

Why did you change the format to where so can only see the notes sideways. Truly, can you fix it to where I can choose the way I want to see the staff and type in notes. Why aren’t there glissandos, crescendos, and decresendos Added:Thank you so much for fixing my concern. Best music creator app out right now

Lost some music

I’ve been using this apps for years now and I really like it but sometimes I’ll lose songs that I’ve been working on and it’s really frustrating because I know I didn’t delete them. I hope for a trash folder in the future that holds deleted songs for 30 days unless deleted again.

Inspiration killer

I think this app was more straightforward when I first got it and you could just start entering notes on the stanza. Now you have to fill out a whole form to get started and the keyboard blocks your ability to finish filling out the form thus, filling your spirit with righteous ire and murdering the inspiration you had that made you reach for the app in the first place. Just record whatever you are working on and wait until you can get back in front of your PC and use MuseScore.

Outstanding App!

This app is amazing for aspiring music composers and/or song writers! It’s really easy to use and very satisfying when you make a song you really like! Even better, you can reach out to the developers of the app for suggestions, problems or issues AND THEY ACTUALLY FIX IT! Easily one of the best apps out there! Keep io the good work!

Amazing app

I’ve been starting to compose music recently, and this app has literally had everything I’ve needed. There are so many different instruments to chose from, from the piano to a banjo (that unintentionally rhymes), and I literally never rate apps. I just had to express that this app is so useful, because it deserves it.

This app used to work very well, but not anymore.

This app used to work great and let me create music however I wanted. Some things were confusing or frustrating, but I made it out eventually. Sadly, a while ago the app just started crashing every time I opened it. All my songs are locked behind it, and even my backups aren't any help as opening them just opens the app and crashes it again. I just want to work on my song again. Please fix your app.

Decent but has some issues

I tend to write choral pieces on this app a lot. It works very well and I can easily write songs in no time. However, depending on how many staffs I have played out, or how long the song is, instead of playing the song, all I get is what sounds like TV static and I have to close out the app and reopen. This is small, but I wish I could choose which measure needs two layers, rather than having to do the entire staff that way. Very good app nonetheless!

One more suggestion

So it would be nice if it wasn’t physically possible to put in notes that are out of an instruments range into a song, because I keep putting notes that aren’t possible for the instrument to play and then I have to go back in and change it. Thanks!

A drummers review

First, I understand this is a free app. So I’ll start by saying; as a basic tool this app is alright. But it stops there. Note value does not exist in this app, and it’s extremely frustrating. If I place a quarter note on 1, it shouldn’t be placing a quarter rest on the eight note between 1 & 2. Again, if you’re using this for basic notation needs, it’s can be helpful at times... but once you begin to use it for more technical writing; triplets, shuffle grooves, ghost notes, etc... the app doesn’t work at all. For other instruments, it may help. But for drummers, it’s a waste of time to even bother.

It was great at first… But

This app was great at 1st but then it started getting all these updates. I can now only export 20 measures in my songs. I just used this app yesterday and everything was fine. But then using it today it kicks me out every time I opened a song. I tried re starting my Phone hoping that would help but it didn’t. It’s the apps problem. And I even tried deleting the app and getting it again but that didn’t work either.

Love this app!

I really love this app! It’s simple to use but is loaded with features. I write professional music with it and get the idea of how it will sound for any errors and then record it off the sheet music for my clients, even playing the MIDI file through professional equipment for professional sound. It’s a great app. The developer stays on top of feedback. Bravo!

Dynamics and articulation

This app is incredible. It’s easy to use, it has a very friendly interface, and I’m already making some songs here and there after a day of getting used to the way it works. There are only a couple of problems that I see, and those problems have to do with the articulations, and the dynamics. I put some on a few notes to test them out, only to find out that they don’t actually do anything. This is one of the greatest musical apps on IOS that I’ve ever found, but that one extra step with the articulations and dynamics would be a huge step forward. I’m really loving it so far, and I can’t wait to see what comes out for the next update.

It’s okay

There are very few choices of this type of app so I downloaded this one cuz it’s free. Easy enough to start creating. But everything on it is Very BASIC and seems for beginners only. They’re missing symbols, like repeats, and rest measures. Instead, I have to take up music space w/ the huge rest symbol. Makes it difficult to edit.. If I change what I’ve already put down, it’ll delete a note I wanted to keep after it. If you don’t go in order, you may not have a song at the end!
