This app is amazing!

This app is incredible and it works very well when you have the right lighting. The matching game is also very fun and it helps the app get better, which is always a plus. The music features are outstanding. This app needs to get more love because it is very good.

Somewhat helpful

Great app when it works. Sometimes lighting or flat surface helps, but not always.

Pretty sweet

Reading music is no easy task, and this app is making the process of learning infinitely easier. Love.

It would be great if it worked

The idea here is a good one. Scan a score and hear it. Unfortunately, however, there are a few problems. First, it does not seem to be able to handle a score with more than one part. I tried a quartet score (Purcell) and got repeated error messages. I was never able to get a quartet score to scan at all. Next I tried a solo part (Handel) and while it did scan, there were errors such as: no slurs, bar numbers, articulations, dynamic marks, missing dots on notes (i.e. dotted eighth, etc.). Lastly, in places the app changed note lengths entirely.

This would be a great learning tool and the problems are surprising when an app like Genius Scan, while not for music, is able to capture printed documents so accurately. Unfortunately. as it stands, this app cannot be used for its stated purpose.
