### 1/5 — Be wary

*2024-06-03, version 3.10.8*

I have now, as far as I can tell, paid for a file twice now. After the first purchase, I couldn’t find it, hence the second attempt. Now, I see both, but both are marked as incomplete, so I can’t access them. There was no extra step that seemed to indicate that something else needed to be done to complete the purchase.

### 1/5 — Not in English

*2017-11-17, version 3.3.3*

Looks great, but I would love to see the music in English. Until then it’s no good to me.

### 5/5 — Bandzo

*2016-10-07*

Enfin , une application qui répond à nos besoin. Excellant !

### 5/5 — Every student must have this app

*2016-07-21*

I have been looking for an app which could show me music while it is being played.  I should be able to change the tempo and transpose.  It does all that, better than many other apps I have seen. There is plenty of free collection out there to start playing. Once you get good, start buying.  I recommend Czerny,s package, which runs I think $15 USD, and can be purchased from within the app.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2015-06-07*

This app is alot of fun to use. I do wish there were even more titles to choose from but this does its job and is very motivating.

### 4/5 — Great

*2014-12-21*

The app is very helpful and I've managed to find my favorite artists! However, if the feature isn't already available, there should be a way to print the sheet music you buy. Also, the interface could use a flatter look, but that's just a superficial thing that doesn't really matter. Other than those things, everything about the app is great!

### 5/5 — Totally love it!

*2014-02-28*

Recommend from a friend of mine, and it totally works well for me, I just love it.
