Warning! App software crashes new iPhones

I absolutely loved this app several years ago! I’m not sure what happened to it, but I’m devastated 😭
Now it crashes after <5 min, completely freezing everything even with a brand new iPhone.
Every time I’ve tried this app, I’m inevitably forced to power down + restart my phone. What on earth?

Nostalgia turned into disappointment..

Found this game again after a few years, I found it in a disgusting mess full of ads and paid songs. So sad to see such a cool game in this state..

Dead Space

For some reason, when I play any song whether it’s normal or a sing-along, there is a dead space for the notes. On the lower half of my screen, the game simply doesn’t register my taps and it’s unbelievably frustrating. I can be tapping the screen and it just won’t register ANYTHING for a so,id 3-4 seconds, which when you’re playing a fast song is extremely damaging to your score. PLEASE figure out what’s causing this issue.

What happened to my song library!?

Another great app has been ruined by a pointless mandatory update. I loved Magic Piano as it was and played it whenever I was feeling stressed, so I played it often. Loved the look of it, the sounds, the songs and the scoring. Unfortunately 6.1.1 was released and when I tried to play my older version of it, I couldn't. Kept getting pulled to the update page. Having no choice other than deleting it, I updated. Man what a mess it is now! It looks visually as bad as Apple's IOS 7. The font type is very light and thin, there's way too much white background, and the song titles are nearly impossible to read. And a new design of light pastel colors too. So although the songs are still fun, the song title screen looks horrible and I don't play it as often. I certainly won't be purchasing any more titles for it. The point about updates is allowing choice. Some people might love it. But don't FORCE people into it. I hate it now. Please update and bring back the cool original look. Apple made a design mistake and so have you. I'm also having a lot of stress over the relentless ads that pop up. Some of them, the Disney one for instance does not go away. I have to literally close the app and re-open it. I don't recall the other versions being so advertising heavy. Please remove all these annoying commercials and let us simply play piano.

..

All the good songs are VIP and I have to stick with the bad songs since I can not afford the VIP songs

Composer is STILL broken

As mentioned in the title, composer has been broken for half a year at this point. This remains despite the reviews stating the same and sending multiple support tickets (where I am always reassured that the team know and are "working on it"). I'm aware that this app is maintained by a skeleton crew at this point but for the people that at any point actually cared about the creation aspect of the game this completely sours the experience. I'm saying this with a begrudging love, as someone who's been playing since 2014; fix your app.

Add a little bit Bad song

Please add a little bit Bad song

Muito bom

Eu jogo esse jogo todo dia eu participo das daily challenges todo dia porém uma coisa que eu não gosto muito além dos anúncios mas eu sei que você tem que pagar o Premium pra poder tirar os anúncios então não vou falar nada é só que o fato de quando eu vou fazer as músicas algumas vezes o áudio buga e eu não consigo escutar direito e fica muito ruim de ouvir mas tirando isso é um jogo muito bom só preciso melhorar mesmo

1 SMOOLA AFTER COMPLETING A SONG!!??

And an ad before and after every song im done

Earned Songs disappeared

Get ready to watch 100 ads just so all your songs can disappear

Smoola

Okayyyyy so overall it’s a really great game to just like chill and relax. My one problem is that smoola are way too hard to get and songs cost so much of it. Maybe making the songs cheaper would be better. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ruined by ads

This was good when I purchased it many years ago, and back then it was easy to use. Now it uses ads and it’s not worth the time it takes to use it.

Girl in underwear featured in ad!!!

My 10 year old boy has shown interest in learning piano. He was enjoying some familiar songs in this app when an ad popped up for Love Island which featured an animated girl (woman?) in bra and panties acting all coy and suggestive. It’s one of those ads that you can’t exit from and you have to wait through it all. I know the app doesn’t have complete say in every ad, but user beware, they do not screen their advertisers for age appropriate content. We deleted the app, but this incident prompted me to search Smule’s app and if this is their norm. Turns out that they also have chat features where strangers can connect and rate and comment on their songs. Other apps allow you to record yourself while singing and upload the video for review of public. This leads to access to your kids, their voice, and image, and also private conversations with strangers. Please be aware!!!!

Game Ruined

I had this app when I was a kid. I loved it. And it was accessible. Now it has been ruined with ads and pushes a $10/week or $20/month membership if you want the same experience I had for free as a kid. You can only earn 5 coins by watching an ad, which is outrageous. And every time you play a song an ad plays after and you don’t earn any coins for that. You only start off with 3 songs so there is no incentive to play unless you get a membership. I won’t be giving into that. It’s really a shame because I used to love this app.

One of the best music apps!!

I’ve been using magic piano since 2017 and have enjoyed it ever since. Made so many memories over time, while making some songs myself.
Definitely recommend using this app if you’re bored or love music, especially with the piano.

Composer needs improvement 😔

I do deeply feel the composer needs more improvement. Here are my 2 suggestions.
First, I think the composer could use more notes below the second octave because a piano has notes below c2.
Second, I want to add tempo changes in my music. I think it will add help add effect.
I’m not saying this game is down bad but I mainly just want the composer to be better which is why I gave it 3 stars.
