### 1/5 — Connected but does not work

*2025-11-21, version 1.2.5*

I connected it just fine but then it does not say connected on the home screen and does not work. What gives? Is it iOS 14?

2025…still doesn’t work

### 1/5 — App rarely opens and when it does it’s not good

*2025-05-30, version 1.2.5*

This app rarely opens up without crashing. When it actually does open, the keyboard either doesn’t connect or when it does it takes an eternity. I usually just get frustrated and give up because it’s not even worth it

### 5/5 — broken with ios 17: fixed

*2023-09-24, version 1.2.3*

reinstalled rebooted works

### 5/5 — Not working with iOS 16.4

*2023-04-07, version 1.2.3*

Please update the app so that it will work for iOS 16.4 and maybe add some new features to the app

### 1/5 — Doesn’t support CLP-745

*2023-04-02, version 1.2.3*

No support for CLP-700 series.  
Will that ever happen?

### 5/5 — It's working!

*2023-03-25, version 1.2.3*

Had an issue with it not connecting,but it's now working fine.

### 1/5 — P-515 not supported

*2023-01-10, version 1.2.3*

We purchased the Yamaha P-515 keyboard which plays great, but is not app compatible.

### 5/5 — Not working with iOS 16?

*2022-12-27, version 1.2.3*

Update: Sorry I was doing something wrong. It’s working like it should. 

I just upgraded to iOS 16.2 and now this piano controller is not working? I know the P-115 is a little older but there’s still a lot of people playing them. At least I am… Please update! Thank you.

### 3/5 — App struggles to work

*2020-12-10, version 1.2.1*

Like others, p115 worked great until recently maybe iOS 14. And it really needs ability to save to my iPhone and cloud. Not useful for just playing on the piano if I’m not around the piano. But does have additional features I hadn’t used on the piano.

Thx
Veronica

### 4/5 — Does what it is supposed to

*2020-12-05, version 1.2.1*

Could be better, but I don’t feel it deserves to be down at 2.4 stars as it is now. Could use some UI improvements and there are features I feel would be easy to add, but the app does what it is supposed to do, and I haven’t had any glitches.
