### 1/5 — Can't play song

*2016-06-10*

I love that I can import the songs from my library, but you can't play the songs. You click the play button and it does nothing. I'm really disappointed. I wanted to rate this more but I've spent $25 to get this app and all of its accessories and I can't use it.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the really late  reply. 
If you are interested I can try to fix it with you. 
Please send me details so I can help you. 
Andreas

### 5/5 — Great App

*2014-05-13*

I have used the iphone version for the last year, and love the app. I also have the app on my ipad as well which I would like to start using as there is a lyrics field where I was hoping to add lyrics and song notes (through the lyrics field in itunes), but so far no luck. I have reached out to the Developer, but just today.  It is probably just user error anyway, but love this app!
