### 1/5 — Just doesn’t work

*2022-06-23, version 2.4.7*

I downloaded the app and it fails to connect my iPhone to my piano. I’ve tried several variations of suggestions from the Internet And I continue to get “function requires a connection to a compatible digital piano.”

### 1/5 — Drains battery in background.

*2022-01-21, version 2.4.5*

In the first 24 hours of use, it was on screen for 18 minutes and had 16 hours of background activity, draining 44% of my iPad battery while it was locked.

### 1/5 — Px s3000 cannot connect

*2021-07-15, version 2.3.4*

:’(

### 2/5 — Does not connect

*2020-07-31, version 2.3.0*

Does not connect

### 1/5 — Connection

*2020-07-14, version 2.2.3*

iPhone can’t connect

### 3/5 — This doesn’t make sense

*2020-05-14, version 2.2.3*

I’m trying to connect my keyboard to this app and I can’t figure out how it works. Do I have to plug something in? Or is it Bluetooth, because my keyboard doesn’t have Bluetooth so how can I use my iPad for the piano remote controls part it tells me “ this function requires a connection to a compatible digital piano. Please help me.

### 5/5 — does not connect- YES IT DOES!

*2020-02-14, version 2.2.3*

There are a lot of reviews written about the app not connecting to the keyboard, or not recognizing it.
This is because a lot of users use the wrong usb port. They plug it into the port that looks like a usb 2 charging port. This is actually the port where Casio wants you to plug in a hard drive. The other usb port that is more square is the one for connecting your iPad to.

So it's not an app problem folks!

### 1/5 — Can not connect PXS3000

*2019-11-11, version 2.2.2*

As other reviews have stated, instructions tell you to just plug a cord into the iPhone and piano andit will automatically connect. Not the case and no help to be found to fix this issue.

What's the point of advertising Bluetooth if there isn't an easy way to connect?

### 1/5 — eps120 cannot connect

*2019-11-10, version 2.2.2*

because of iOS 13？   please fix the problem
