## Most critical reviews (4 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work, Arbitrary limitations

*2025-04-12*

Doesn’t connect iPad to Mac when other MIDI apps connect fine. Also has strange, arbitrary limitation of assigning only 1-15.

### 2/5 — Needs upgrade

*2021-02-16*

This can only update CCs 1-15. Should allow more values, I need 21.

### 5/5 — Very good and reliable

*2022-04-24*

This app is exactly what I have been looking for. It’s a simple, free way to control dynamics and expression on my virtual instruments. Best of all it’s accessible because it’s on the phone! 

Great work!

### 5/5 — WORKS!!!!!!

*2020-03-26*

This works with rtp MIDI set up on Windows. Great for controlling mod wheel and other parameters in the DAW since my keyboard does not have wheels. It would be great if there is an option to disable on of the axi as well. Simple to use without significant latency.
