User Reviews: Halbestunde Sheet Music Reader

Top reviews

  • This app is terrible

    Pretty much everything it advertises is locked behind a paywall and you can literally use the features twice before you have to pay for more. I tried putting in a saxophone song and it did not work like at all. This app is terrible
  • Bad

    I used the photo scanner and it recognized all of the sixteenth notes as half notes and half the time the notes weren’t even the right notes
  • Scanning

    This apps scanner is not good at all, im scanning very clear pieces to test it and it doesn’t recognize any thing, quarter notes would turn into whole notes and other varies issues, however once in a while it may work but only some parts of it.
  • Does not work properly

    I was trying to figure out a rhythm on a piece so I scanned it with the sheet reader and I knew it was wrong. It played an eight note as a sixteenth. Therefore I learned the whole piece wrong. Not a very helpful app

    Please get in touch with our customer support and share the Pdf file so that we can investigate it.
  • Worthless garbage

    Don’t waste your time or money! Unfortunately like a fool I paid for the lifetime subscription only to find that it will neither scan or recognize crystal-clear pdf’s or jpeg’s. It inevitably says it failed.

  • Does this have a drum setting?

    ?
  • Meh

    The tracker feature doesn't work, and the quality is OK but like the whole tracker thing just throws me off completely

    We would like to understand what you mean by The Tracker does not work - it works for other users. If you could let us know by sending an email to support@halbestunde.com that would be helpful.
  • Amazing!!

    This is an amazing app, I’ve been so stressed about sheet music lately cuz the church is expecting a lot of our group and I was so confused on which sheet music to pick, which one was better, but after listening to it I understand everything! Oh thanks so much to the creators!!
  • Great App!

    Honestly, i know that this took a lot of work, but i wish it was free. I would rather have ads and unlimited access than pay.
  • Upload music

    When it’s generating the notes on your music sheet of you upload one, it always gets the notes wrong while you make sure you placed the paper in good position along with good lighting

    Hi Camila, thanks for the feedback. When taking a photo of the sheet music, it is important to use a clean background (one colour background), and ensure you do not cut the lines on either sides. Photos should always be on vertical mode. These observations help the reader recognise all notes in the music sheet.
