Awesome… then not so much
I was excited to find this program where I could use linking to turn the music rather than facial gestures because I am a vocalist as well as play. I stumbled across this app in my search and downloaded it onto my phone to try. It worked beautifully. The app description showed it compatible with the iPad- has a screenshot of the fully customizable setting section- so I bought it.
However,
Upon downloading it to my iPad there is no option showing up for winking instead of mouth movement, which is most disappointing because I would be using my iPad for my music rather than my iPhone. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app hoping it was just a glitch but I have yet to find a successful way to find this particular feature- which was the whole reason I bought this app.

Impossible to test the app
To open one single included PDF file is not signifiant enough. We cannot test usage with several files and I would like to know if it is us able with forScore.
Annotation feature not working
Writing this in the hopes someone can help me. The app is great for page turns but I cannot get the annotation feature to work. Can’t justify buying an app that doesn’t allow marking or notes. I will update this review if I hear back from the developer.
Quite Good
Im a beginner in playing piano. The app helps me quite well because I can concentrate on my playing and do not need to struggle with the scores and the keyboard. 10€ is a very fair value for money
Great support by the developer - thanks a lot Stephen!

A good idea but nothing to test
The idea of using face recognition to flip pages is a very good one that, but it is difficult to test it fully using the single PDF provided and having no access to other possible gestures. As a singer, i have to open my mouth more than one time every page …
To make your app worth buying, you guys need to unlock a bit more functionalities …

Annotate broken
The annotation feature doesn’t work. I have emailed weeks ago and not heard back. The sensitivity features seem to change and need adjustment regularly. Sad to admit I haven’t been brave enough to use during performance for lack of confidence in the app. I really want it to work. Hopefully I can hear back from the developer soon and get help to make it work.

I have missed this all my piano life!
I just love this app!
Works great for me!
Love this app. It has taken practice to keep my mouth still or not turn my head until ready to change pages. 😃 I love being able to continue to the next page without taking my hands off the piano. Thank you!
It’s ok. Could be better
The demo was fine. I thought anyway. I bought it and added my music. It was ok at the beginning but I think I pressed a button and somehow it now shows me two pages now. If I zoom in, it always skips a page when I change pages. The automatic page turning with the mouth sometimes stops working. Then I play around in the app and it starts working again. Not sure what i am doing wrong but it’s very difficult to get it working like it should. I just want one page turning and the mouth to work, but if I press certain buttons it all goes away and I can’t get it to work well again. A little frustrating for the amount this cost. But the editing works fine and I like that feature.

I had high hopes…
I really want to like this app, but it doesn’t work consistently. Sometimes it won’t turn pages at all, and other times the pages turn erratically. Also, the app on my iphone can use winks, but that feature isn’t available for the iPad? It works, kind of, and hopefully I can make it work for performances eventually, but right now there are too many bugs for me to trust it. It feels like a waste of $10.

PageTurn
A great app for pianists and organists. It took a few months to get used to how to set the sensitivity (how quickly or slowly the pages turn) but I can't live without it now.
Preview doesn’t allow you to experience enough
When I show the palette, it’s not allowing me to mark up my scores. Also didn’t have a chance to see how this would work with set lists, as the demo version only allows you to work with one score.
So far very disappointed.

Great blink-pageturning but awful note taking features
The app has great eye/blink pageturning feature, better than the others I tried. But the file storage and note taking features are awful. If you open a PDF from a website, it won’t save. If you write notes on the PDF (that’s opened from iPad’s Files app, not from webpage) it’ll show saved successfully but if you open the file later, the notes either disappeared or shifted locations themselves, ,miraculously.

Crashes on saving annotated pdf
Just lost an hour worth of annotations that way. (File was saved in Dropbox.) Great app in principle but not really stable yet.
Works good on my 10 inch iPad, not on my 12.9 inch ipad
I did some investigating and found my 12.9 inch ipad is built in 2017 and second generation, you need 3 generation for this to work, I’m going to keep it on my smaller ipad but wish it worked on the bigger one as I use that one when I play in the band at church
Doesn’t Work (never asks for camera access)
I’ve deleted and re-installed from scratch, still doesn’t work. The app never asks for camera access. I’d buy in a second if the trial would work.
Response from developer
Apologies for this - v2.1.1 was released yesterday and should resolve this issue.
So so
Good concept. Hard to master
Update, my facial gestures, move the cursor back-and-forth, but the pages hardly turned at all. I try the tutorial and the same thing happens. I am running, iOS 17.2 and PageTurn 2.1.

Response from developer
Hi. From what you describe, it sounds like tweaking the sensitivity and timing settings might help? You can lower the threshold so it turns with a gentler gesture, or increase the speed so it will turn pages quicker. Feel free to email me at coylesoftware@gmail.com if you want to discuss further.

Hi, v2.1 has just been released and has an improved tutorial which may help!
Not dependable
When it works, it works well. Unfortunately this is only about 20% of the time. Controls are weak and not dependable. Even practicing music with this app is a chore. Great idea, just not well executed.
Response from developer
Hi, I'd love to hear more about your setup so I can improve it for you. Feel free to get in touch at coylesoftware@gmail.com
