### 4/5 — I’m just saying that right?

*2026-03-08, version 6.4.2*

A bit annoying

### 3/5 — The AI

*2025-12-21, version 6.4.2*

There is one thing I have spotted that made me mad I don’t like the fact that there is ai generated pfps and in fact I have an idea for the creator you should make it so when you have enough coins you can upload an image but ya thants it

### 4/5 — Love it but…

*2025-09-21, version 6.4.2*

I wish you can have unlimited hearts without having to buy anything

### 5/5 — Best

*2025-09-16, version 6.4.2*

It is helping my music and it is helping e make songs.!!

### 2/5 — Not what I thought

*2025-08-16, version 6.4.2*

When I downloaded this app I thought it would be for making music no it's a game,It also uses AI For its profile pictures.This is my first time giving a review on something.

### 5/5 — Happy

*2025-08-13, version 6.4.2*

Can make any songs

### 4/5 — Why I’m rating it a 4 star

*2025-07-29, version 6.4.2*

This is a really fun game but it has one problem (just note that before I start this may just be my phone) there’s a little glitch,this is how it works: I play a level, yes? And when I complete it, it says this: +-50 coins +50. Which makes me wonder, am I losing coins or getting them? Like I said before, this may just be my phone but pls fix it.













DE END

GOODBAI

### 5/5 — Alex

*2025-06-22, version 6.4.2*

Hola soy Alex como te va?

### 5/5 — 5/5

*2025-06-08, version 6.4.2*

I love how you can play fun mini games where you have to guess the notes that were supposed to be in the melody! I also love how we can switch to Major or Minor on the scale

### 5/5 — Adding Tracks

*2025-06-05*

This app is great and I have used it for a while, I would just ask for one thing, recording music on your phone, like playing guitar, and adding it to the song track. Thank you for listening.

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing!!!

*2025-05-08, version 6.3*

not only can you create music, but you also complete levels to unlock more skills! and there are no ads! absolutely zero! check if you don’t believe me! i swear you won’t regret it!

### 1/5 — AI Usage

*2026-05-09, version 6.4.2*

A nice idea and seems to be executed well but that’s off first impressions. I’m usually the type to be okay to drop a bit of money to remove ads but the available profile pictures appear to be of the AI generated variety so I’ll just be deleting the app instead. Can the devs confirm? And clarify what else, if any, other gen AI is used in the app? Great to see devs wanting to empower others to be creative with something like this but less great to see them using technology that directly hurts artists/creatives.

### 1/5 — AI

*2025-10-13, version 6.4.2*

Makes the mind boggling descision to use AI pictures for profile pictures? Why?

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time downloading this game. 0 stars if possible.

*2025-04-23, version 6.1.0*

I downloaded this game as part of paid job to test it out. They’re clearly needing reviews for the app and this is my honest review. This is the worst app I’ve ever used in my life. At first, the first couple of levels were fine! But then, I had to complete levels with no sound? Like huh?? I’m just supposed to guess where everything goes? Like no. It stressed me out. I thought it was my phone, restarted it. But nope. Either a problem with the app, or that’s how they made it. Either way, not something I will be playing in my spare time and I will be deleting it now that I’ve done my job!!

### 1/5 — Like a tycoon game

*2025-03-04, version 4.8*

Why do you need to purchase upgrades? I just wanted something a bit like chrome music lab.

### 1/5 — « Pro »

*2025-02-14, version 4.7.2*

Il faut payer pour pouvoir jouer plusieurs notes à la fois.

### 1/5 — Not a good app

*2025-01-26, version 4.6.5*

This app is falsely advertised. I was looking for a app I can make beats and then download the MP3 this app still the rights to what you create and post it on a platform. This is not a good app if you’re trying to pursue music as a career.

### 1/5 — I hate the new update

*2024-07-24, version 3.3*

I hate the new update because you have to spend £10 on getting pro to remix songs get more then six songs this update needs to be thrown in the fire when I used to play it, it used to be free and if you wanted coins, you could earn them also this is a pay to have fun I hate those types of games. Are used to play it and everything was free.

### 1/5 — I just want it to be a music game

*2024-06-08, version 3.1*

I like the fact that you can do a lot of stuff and make a lot of songs, but like when there’s levels that you have to pass to like make more mute music like I want to just have all of it and just make regular mute music without having to do a bunch of stuff to get the music

### 1/5 — Just great

*2024-06-03, version 3.1*

great now I can’t get the upgrade and I will delete and report the game if not fixed

### 1/5 — just download ableton

*2024-04-14, version 2.7.2*

if you wanna make song just download abletom live it so much better

### 5/5 — Amazing but

*2026-08-31, version 6.4.2*

I think we should add songs like real songs and make it different and make it are very own music just no singing bits I mean let’s put the melody of any song and make it different 😁

### 5/5 — Chrome Music Lab 2.

*2026-07-26, version 6.4.2*

this game, is probably a sequel to Chrome Music Lab if there was one.

here’s one suggestion: slide notes.

slide notes can be diagonal sustained notes, that climb up or climb down to the note that’s on the end of it. like from A to F, or B to E#.
they can be as long as they want, from 2 note bars, to literally the end of the song.

overall, great game, highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Multi=perfect

*2026-07-10, version 6.4.2*

Love this game I’m getting more famous bit by bit,but I’d love it if you could add multi instruments with the note ones.Please and thank you 😍😀🥇

### 5/5 — Just one thing

*2026-06-17, version 6.4.2*

So, I love this app! It's so fun and cool, but my only problem is that you have to do levels to unlock features toake music. If you could please change that, this app would be perfect.

### 5/5 — Longer

*2026-06-09, version 6.4.2*

Can u make it so that it is longer than 16

### 5/5 — The good feeling

*2026-05-15, version 6.4.2*

Whatever song you can type and create, you can like put it to 16 but kind of wasting money just because you have to use money to put it all the way to 16 but still great, but the reviews are good on the challenges is kinda hard for me, even though it’s not so yeah this was great

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2026-04-15, version 6.4.2*

I love this app

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2026-02-07, version 6.4.2*

Very fun game and music maker but it would be cool to have some more instruments and make it so you can stack notes for free but it’s just a suggestion love the game

### 5/5 — I didnt even know i had this app!

*2026-01-18, version 6.4.2*
