Leave a Review Beam Music
Very Unreliable
My collegiate band uses this, and it is not great. It crashes all the time, really randomly and inconveniently. The crashing has been getting worse since I first started with Beam a year ago. Notations from other songs will randomly appear on my music, and sometimes notations will disappear completely and not come back. The search feature rarely works, which isn’t great when I’m quickly looking for a certain song from a long library. Sometimes when I’m writing annotations they won’t stick, won’t erase, and multiple versions of what I’ve wrote and erased come and go. When flipping between pages or pieces, stuff often won’t load (no matter how good the internet connection), leaving me stranded on the field with a blank screen. The save zoom fails a lot too, which is confusing and frustrating when a piece of music is big and long.
Everyone in my 300+ member band is having these issues. Overall, not a great software.Show lessLucky the Pony
What was so wrong with paper
Why is there no proper and easy way to quickly change pages. All I can do is endlessly swipe and just drag the music around in hopes that it will eventually decide to change the page. Could have been made decently but the whole app is just dumb and not well through out.takenyadown
Crashing
Love the app it’s great for having music in front of everyone but every now and then it will randomly crash.Yrple
Crashes constantly
Beam has been crashing like crazy lately. It makes it very hard to rehearse effectively when the app constantly kicks me out & glitches while I’m trying to use it.all3girls
Missing features
Good app but its missing highlighters which I use for dynamics. It’s also missing a white colored pen that can be used to erase notes & change the score when needed.CPSlayerGaming
The worst music app
Crashes all the time when I am trying to pull up music during practice. It deletes annotations and runs down my phone’s battery so quickly that I can’t use it for that long unless my phone is on low battery mode and I turn it off for parts of rehearsal. It’s crashed and made rehearsal difficult so many times I wish I could give it negative stars.Show lessAlleb1382
Annotations Disappeared
Overall Beam is great! It’s easy to use on the field, especially the annotation features. In rehearsal I always mark my step offs in my music to help me remember.
On game day, I used the live mode feature to stay in synch with my director. It worked well! But when I exited live mode and went to open my music at halftime, all of my notes were missing from my music. I tried closing and opening the app again but that wasn’t working. My notes kept coming back after zooming in and out but then would disappear again. This had never happened to me before. The only difference between rehearsal and game day was that I had used the live mode feature. But I don’t know how or if those features correlate.
I do enjoy using Beam, and I hope this bug gets fixed!Show lessEvelyn124536899
