### 2/5 — Not updated in...

*2016-10-01, version 1.1*

This app doesn't work anymore. Since it hasn't been updated since 2010, I suspect it won't run under iOS 9 or 10.

### 4/5 — Great app BUT!

*2016-07-13*

Great app but if only it could have alternate between numerous voicing as synth, electric piano and all. Looking for an update

### 3/5 — App Crashes

*2016-04-08, version 1.1*

The app is good when it works. It takes at least 5 times of launching the app before you can play the keyboard because it crashes every time you click on play, learn, or options.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2015-11-27, version 1.1*

It worked great for the first few years i had it. But recently it has been glitching and crashes as soon as i touch any of the options and take me out of the app

### 3/5 — Crashes under iOS 9

*2015-09-18, version 1.1*

Very useful app, but having "upgraded" to iOS 9 I can no longer open it.  Please fix!

### 4/5 — Use it often

*2015-03-29, version 1.1*

This app is my go to for notes when rehearsing.  User friendly.

### 4/5 — Plays like a piano

*2015-03-24, version 1.1*

really plays and sounds like a piano.   very helpful in learning music esp. while on the road for business.

### 4/5 — Casual Player

*2015-02-16, version 1.1*

Great for learning keys and casual piano playing. Basic but everything you need in a piano app.

### 4/5 — A keyboard for everywhere

*2014-07-01, version 1.1*

It's too much fun to leave behind! Wherever a tuneful idea comes up, there's the piano.

### 4/5 — Sheet music

*2014-05-01, version 1.1*

Good app, but here are some ways you could improve the sheet music part:

1) Add flats (replace D# and A# with Eb and Bb)
2) Add naturals (in 'Happy Birthday', for example, there are two A# notes, then an A note – without a natural, which makes it confusing.
3) Add key signatures (Happy birthday in F, Jingle Bells in G, that Beethoven one in D, etc)
4) Add 8va notation (in that Beethoven one there is a high D that can't be sightread by most pianists)
5) Add time signatures and barlines (It may get confusing for advanced pianists like me)
6) Add paired quavers/semiquavers (there are lots of quavers and semiquavers separate so it would be a good idea to make some of them paired.)

Also improve the sound quality:

1) The notes can only be held down for 2-3 seconds
2) The recording of the high B failed
3) The note "F6" is out of tune.
4) The note "C#1" is out of tune.

:)

### 2/5 — Memory problems

*2014-03-15, version 1.1*

In the absence of a piano at home, I find it good for picking out the alto part in the songs I'll be singing in church choir the next day. but there seems to be a problem with it taking up a lot of memory on y iPad.  It frequently crashes . . .

### 4/5 — Great basic keyboard app

*2014-03-04, version 1.1*

Nice piano tune and adjustable metronome. Much better than other piano apps I've tried. Reccommended.

### 1/5 — How dare you

*2014-02-23, version 1.1*

Why the hell do you think you have a right to debit my Itunes account $2.99 a week for this!!

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2015-10-12*

### 1/5 — Lots of bugs

*2015-09-06*

Persisitent crashing and continuous sound vanishing has made this app worthless. Was working fine a few months back..
Fix the errors at the earliest.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2015-03-01, version 1.1*

At first start up, showed a dialog box with Yes/no but no question, so couldn't tell what question I was supposed to answer.  Uninstalled after that.

### 5/5 — Perfect for me

*2014-12-23, version 1.1*

I am studying jazz.  Right now, I am learning improv from a book of examples.  I can take the book with me on vacation with my iPad and play the snippets of melody.  I do not need my big piano for this study.  And it is kind of fun to play on the iPad.  Thanks so much for this app!

My 3 yr old grand baby loves playing with it. Keeps her entertained for hours. Maybe we have a musician in the family.

### 5/5 — Piano App

*2013-11-29, version 1.1*
