### 3/5 — Great Product Concept!

*2025-12-31*

I want to ensure that I am being as positive as I can. The idea of this program/software is genius; especially as I am new to the technicality of music [notes & etc]. This is pretty much a user-friendly idea. It is imperative that you deal with the bugs, the crashing and the freezing up. And currently, I have been working on a song for the better part of the day—something that I greatly enjoy—however, I am unable to locate the file that was saved. This is very disheartening. Please make this right—make this work. I want this to work…desperately!

### 4/5 — Bugs

I’m trying to make a song, but they keep getting me to Safari
