Annotations feature is the most buggy and clunky thing I’ve ever used in an app. The app is great for isolating parts during practice in the week for Sundays and on Sunday it’s great to have if you are an instrumentalist (other than the drummer, I’ll get there) who needs a chord chart. The synchronization feature for Sundays is great. When making annotations on song charts, the app makes it so you can’t put them anywhere but on the lyrics and with the limited space to annotate and awful navigation which will skip and think you want to add a note in annotation mode if you try scrolling, it really becomes an awful experience. This means if you are a drummer like me who wants to input transition notes into a song map or lyric rundown, you’re gonna have a bad time. Then when you get to Sunday service, many time annotations don’t load at all, meaning any important notes you had to remember are privy to being forgotten and manually switching to showing the annotations mid service is not a viable alternative many times. The app during personal practice has many and countless unintuitive interactions as well (it took me 2 hours of using it with just an original mix instead of what I wanted which was the part isolation that I had to pull up the card while playing the song to get the options you see for playback in the screenshots on the App Store listing for example… I’m a very tech versed guy as an app developer myself so I know how to use apps). App is good when it works, but most times doesn’t. This 100% needs way more work before I’d be comfortable using this in a Sunday service, luckily I’m a drummer and can make my part up if annotations I wrote don’t show up but other instrumentalists at my church have to use this and it was a clunky transition process to configure and took way to much digging to figure out how to actually use the app due to its unintuitive and awful UI/UX.
