  • For a dollar i thought it would be a decent app without ads

    Notes dont sustain while you keep your finger on the key. The sustain toggle just makes it go on for 10 seconds so either you have staccato notes or long held notes nothing in between. Disappointed that I wasted a dollar on this
  • Bb and B reversed

    Recent update reversed Bb and B pitches

    Sorry about that! The latest update should fix it.
  • Sustains all the time

    It is as if the sustain pedal is held down by a brick, and don’t see any obvious way to make it Stop behaving that way. Annoying, and less useful.

    Should work differently now on the latest update! Added a sustain toggle (that can also be activated with the space key).
  • Simple and Straightforward

    I have tried many many piano apps for the iPhone. I love the fact that this app is simple, straightforward, and gives you the ability to play multiple notes simultaneously. I shy away from those with way too many features. If I am out and about and think of a tune, I can pull out the Pocket Piano and play around. Also, the baby can mess around without stumbling on any non-music playing menus too easily.

  • Very basic.

    Too basic for me to use, I’m afraid, but it’s a start. Will keep an eye on it for further development.

    So sorry you feel that way! I am working hard on many updates soon to be released. My goal with this app was to created a very simple app to use with complex features and settings for advanced users. I wanted on the first release to focus on performance and bugs. If you have any issues please file one in the app! I have many great updates planned. Stay tuned :)
  • Good idea, but...

    This would be and excellent app but one thing has ruined it.
    The keys aren't very sensitive, you have to tap them quite a few times before they make a sound.
  • . . .

    It’s a start. Quite a bit more control should be available to the user.

    So sorry you feel that way! This is the very first release of the app and there are many updated planned. if you have any issues or feature request please file an issue in the app and I would love to see if it can be done. Feedback is very important to me :)
  • Needs work

    I love the raw tone behind this piano.. don't change that tone. However the touch response is awful, tapping and tapping 3 to 4 times before it makes a sound :(
