### 5/5 — Don’t buy any other app before trying this!!!

*2024-12-18*

This app has all the simplicity of composing with paper as opposed to with a “toolbox” or anything else on the fancy composing apps. Also, it’s free, unlike another app I saw that wasn’t for some reason…

**Developer response:** Hello, this is the developer of Real Music Score.
Thank you so much for your valuable review!

### 4/5 — Like writing on paper

*2023-08-18*

For any other dinosaurs that still rate sheet music, this is a great economical choice for the iPad. just like writing on paper, except that it’s glass! I’m only giving four stars rather than five because it would be nice to have an onboard pitch pipe or keyboard.

**Developer response:** Hi InfiniteCowboy,
Thank you very much for using the app and for the review!
I’ll try to add the pitch pipe function asap.
