### 1/5 — App needs to be updated

*2021-05-23, version 2.0*

App needs to be updated.  Won’t open on my iOS 14.5.1

### 2/5 — Potential

*2020-02-03, version 2.0*

Poor sound quality makes it sound very repetitive with no variation

### 5/5 — Love it

*2019-04-06, version 2.0*

The gam is so cool

### 1/5 — free-ok, Pro-doesn’t work

*2018-01-13, version 2.0*

Does not work or open.  Needs to be removed from store.

### 1/5 — Meh

*2017-11-29, version 2.0*

No update since 2014, no Audiobus support and no interapp audio...what good is it other than to tap on for a few minutes and delete.

### 4/5 — Enjoying it

*2017-11-27, version 2.0*

I just downloaded it and it works fine on my iPad Pro.
I think I’m going to use this a lot in my recording.
Quality sound.

### 1/5 — App crashes... a lot...

*2017-09-02, version 2.0*

I have no idea how to even rate an app that won't open for more than a split second... I had higher hopes downloading this—I hope it gets fixed.

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2017-03-12, version 2.0*

Sounds are beautiful but I can only tap away a few times before the app crashes and closes :/

### 5/5 — Lots of fun

*2015-08-20, version 2.0*

Great fun hang /handspan app

### 5/5 — Love it

*2015-08-15, version 2.0*

Even the fact that it exists and works is plenty for me! It's the only hang drum application I could find! I love the sound and love the fact that I can play without buying a 600$ drum!
