You can use it on a nook *2020-06-05, version 3.0.4* This is my favorite music app! I love it!!! It’s fun and entertaining, and I love making music with it. I’m downloading it on all of my devices that’s how much I love it! I have an old nook don’t know if anyone knows what that is nowadays, but it’s a really slow and old version of and iPad. None of my games work on it except for this one, so thanks! If you have a nook this game works! I love this app! Would totally recommend it! P.S. no adds!!!! ### 4/5 — Excellent, minus a few bugs. *2016-10-31, version 3.0.2* Kept my 7 yr old nephew totally engaged for over an hour making music. Would get 5 stars if it weren't for the broken sharing and "for parents..." features, which currently do nothing but take you back to the previous menu. ### 5/5 — Inspirational! *2015-07-18, version 3.0* Love this app...and so do my children. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Awesome to learn and have fun *2015-07-16, version 3.0* I wish we could have had something like that when we were kids. My children love it. Awesome job! ### 5/5 — Great to do with the family *2015-07-15, version 3.0* My kids and I have spent several evenings in a row with this app. We take turns adding instruments, experimenting with different sounds and pitches and have made lots of fun (and sometimes noisy!) songs. The kids love to play them back and dance along. This app works for just about any level of music knowledge and is very flexible. Very nice! ### 5/5 — Composition made simple *2015-07-15, version 3.0* Sketch-a-Song is an amazing tool for bringing out the composer in anyone! It looks great, sounds great, and makes sense for users of all ages and ability levels. ### 5/5 — Fun and Intuitive Music App *2015-07-15, version 3.0* Great job on this app. Makes music composition easy and fun for kids adults alike. By taking a simplified "fill in the box" approach, makes the program highly intuitive and easy for basic music composition. ### 5/5 — Great for Learning *2015-07-14, version 3.0* I was testing this out before giving it to my nephew, which of course, judging by my rating, went really well. This is a great tool for learning the basics of music creation packaged in an easy-to-follow format. Love it. ### 5/5 — Awesome App for All Ages! *2015-07-14, version 3.0* If you're looking for an app to occupy your kids which teaches them more than how to fling birds at pigs with a catapult, look no further. Sketch-a-Song is an awesome, easy to use app which gives instant, satisfying results as you use the graphical interface to create music. Not just for kids either, adults will find it super relaxing to wind down with after a long work day! ### 5/5 — Fun and simple to figure out *2015-07-14, version 3.0* It's really easy to figure out how the app works and it's fun to make songs ### 5/5 — My niece loves this *2015-07-14, version 3.0* I downloaded this for my 11 year old niece and she loves it! It was super easy for her to figure out and when we are in the car she loves making up songs for me and playing them back. I love how creative it lets her be, and how entertaining it is! ### 5/5 — Easy and fun *2015-07-14, version 3.0* I definitely wish I had this when I was a kid. It took me 5 minutes to make an awesome song! This is the way music education should be taught. ### 5/5 — Bravo. (And why is this free?) *2015-07-14, version 3.0* Super intuitive and a pleasure to "sketch" out simple grooves. A pleasure to play with. It's rare to find a high quality free app with no ads or gimmicks. Altruistic devs ftw, highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Super engaging for kids *2015-07-14, version 3.0* My nephews are 8 & 9 and they LOVED this app. One of them is familiar with some music and the other is not. Would recommend to introduce music to kids in a fun way! ### 5/5 — Seriously easy. Seriously fun. *2015-07-13, version 3.0* Still the best way to easily make music. Awesome update. The get feedback feature is great! Thanks Sketch-a-Song! ### 5/5 — Perfect for kids! *2015-07-13, version 3.0* I have two nephews who love this software. ### 5/5 — Intuitive and Easy *2015-07-13, version 3.0* This app makes you feel like you can make music, even if you have no experience. It lets you be creative while disguising it as fun. Very easy to use and well worth exploring! ### 5/5 — Wish I had this when I was a kid *2015-07-11, version 3.0* 8 years of piano lessons and I hardly remember a thing. A few minutes of "drawing" music with Sketch a Song and it's incredible how much came back to me. I also love how many choices there are for instruments; I would've loved to have played with this before "deciding" (or rather, my parents deciding) that piano was the instrument for me way back when. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE *2023-06-23, version 3.1.0* I KEPT GETTING KICKED OFF THIS IS NOT GOOD HOW DARE YOU I DEMAND YOU TO BAN THIS APP IMMEDIATELY! thank you very much ONE STAR IT KEPPS GLITCHING ME OFF ### 1/5 — crash crash crash *2015-03-21, version 2.6* after updating cannotopen it everytime crash ### 1/5 — Crash crash crash *2015-03-21, version 2.6* Can't open at all. ### 1/5 — Funktioniert leider nicht! *2014-12-14, version 2.02* Auf meinem iPad Air 2 funktionieren leider die Buttons nicht! So kann man die App nicht nutzen! Schade! ### 1/5 — Crashes *2014-07-21, version 2.0.1* Would be great, but it crashes after 2 seconds ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2014-07-04, version 2.0.1* This must be a joke. On my iPod 4th gen, It glitches me out and all my progress is wiped and this happened often too. Can't really get anywhere. If you are a 4th gen user, DO NOT BUY. I am waiting for this to be fixed. ### 1/5 — Tolles Program mit Bug *2014-06-04, version 2.0* Gute Idee, benutze ich gerne auch mit meinen Kindern. Stürzt seit dem letzten Update nur laufend ab. Das nervt und man verliert, was man eingespielt hat. ### 1/5 — Bassline Bug *2014-06-03, version 2.0* Always when I try to edit the drums the program shuts down. Still no export posibility! :( But still... Sketch a Song is a great idea and it's easy to forget about time while getting creative. ### 2/5 — worked fine but now crashes *2015-03-22, version 2.6* it was working very well when I got it but a day or two later it crashes over and over ### 2/5 — おしい *2014-03-23, version 1.4* ♯♭付けられて同小説に全ての音階入れれて三連符使えたら100点だった ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sketch a song *2025-03-30, version 3.1.0* Doodling songs ### 5/5 — I love it *2020-12-14, version 3.1.0* So fun and creative! ### 5/5 — Another drum instrumentin *2020-09-03, version 3.0.4* Did you know there is Another drum instrument it’s called the Taiko a Chinese drum ### 5/5 — Send this note to the Medly team *2020-03-18, version 3.0.4* Oh, there was an APP BETTER THAN MY FIRST FIVE WEEKS THAN MEDLY? If the app is free and no in app purchases, I’m quitting Medly for the rest of this semester! What app did I use? Sketch A Song and Musiquest. The best music making software ever done. ### 5/5 — So creative! *2017-07-14, version 3.0.4* Leaned about the app. from our 7 year old grandson. Lots of fun to engage in with him. Not a "game"; you can take turns creating music or create music together. ### 5/5 — So much fun! *2016-08-24, version 3.0.2* Great app to learn music in a fun and easy way! ### 5/5 — I love this App *2016-07-29, version 3.0.2* This app gave me so much inspiration for becoming a composer. I am nearly heart-broken that I deleted the app and lost pieces of music that were truly wonderful (probably only to me). If only I could get them back. Other than that, this app is really fun, and is very easy to learn to use. ### 5/5 — 1 of my fav apps *2016-04-24, version 3.0.2* This is an amazing app.i can't stop playing.its awesome to know that I made a song.its most likely 1 of the best app I've came across.thank u for making a awesome app like this 😉. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2016-01-31, version 3.0.2* This app is brilliant and loads of fun definitely download 😃😀 ### 5/5 — HELP PLEASE!! *2015-08-22, version 3.0* I love this app and have been using it with my music students but ever since I've updated to IOS 8.4 the app is non reactive to my touch.

Someone please help, I've tried reloading the app multiple times but nothing helps. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
