Just needs some major TLC. Please update this Roland! ### 4/5 — Dommage ? *2026-05-06* J’ai bcp utilisé cette appli qui ne fonctionne plus à mon plus grand désespoir depuis une des dernières mises à jour ! Qqn pourrait m’aider svp? ### 2/5 — Cool features but terrible UI *2026-01-03, version 2.0.16* This opened up quite a few features I didn’t know my FP-10 would have. However the UI is just awful. It looks like it was made back in 2009 and never updated. ### 3/5 — Some great features, but needs work *2025-01-16, version 2.0.16* The Piano Partner 2 app has some innovative controls and some developed features, but there are two issues with it: 1. It doesn't allow you to save recordings to an external device, (or at least explain why it can't). Recording playback slows down and acts very strange when the app is minimized. 2. Bluetooth problems. For about a year, I couldn't connect with Bluetooth, but it was fixed once I realized the bluetooth settings on my FP-10 were turned off accidentally (it uses white keys and function button for the bluetooth settings and is not very obvious when it gets changed, which probably causes a lot of confusion for people). Also possibly fixed in updates, but it's hard to tell. ### 3/5 — BUSQUE ROLAND PIANO APP *2024-11-09* Esse app foi descontinuado, não era bom… Acabei de baixar o novo, está excelente! “Roland Piano App” ### 2/5 — ⭐️⭐️ *2024-09-25* 계속 튕겨요.. 들어가면 튕기고, 들어가면 튕기고… 이게 계속 반복이예요ㅠㅠ ### 4/5 — 電子ピアノRP 102にはあったほうがいいと思います *2024-06-22* ピアノ初心者です。中古でRP 102を購入し使い始めました。アプリケーションを見ると電子ピアノ側もiPhone側も最新にしてご使用くださいと書いてあったので、RP 102 =バージョン1.04にアップデート、iPhone SE(第3)17.5.1で使用しました。ピアノのいろいろな設定はファンクションキーとピアノの鍵盤に割り当てられていますが、使うのがとても大変なので、このアプリを使うことでずいぶん使いやすく便利になります。必須だと思います。また、録音に関しても、そんなに長く録音することがないので、大体はうまく録音できます。時々フリーズすることがあります。テストで3分30秒ほど録音してみましたが、問題なく録音できました。録音してみると、自分の技術がよくわかります。とりあえずは問題なく録音できると思いました。電子ピアノを買ったらこのアプリはあったほうがいいと思います。 ### 4/5 — Outdated interface but works ok *2024-05-17, version 2.0.15* I often use when I practice with Roland F140-R. The only tedious issue is when using the Metronome because it does not retain the value if you switch or minimize the application in your iPhone. For example, you had fix the Metronome in 90 but you switch the Application and it goes arbitrarily to 135. For the rest, It does the job. ### 2/5 — ピアノとつながらない *2024-05-07* 残念ですがiPadと繋がりません。xrとは繋がるので⭐︎2で。 ### 1/5 — Not compatible *2024-04-29, version 2.0.15* I just purchased an FP30X but this app doesn’t work with it! ### 4/5 — So far so good. *2024-04-22, version 2.0.15* I got immediate Bluetooth connectivity with my FP 30. That made me happy. I went through each of the icons in the app to understand their functionality. And I did a couple of basic recordings which worked well. My only confusion right now is how to change keys in the Rhythms section. I don’t understand the explanation offered on the Roland website. Will continue to figure it out. ### 3/5 — Has a piano partner mini game!! *2024-03-06, version 2.0.15* It's so good that the game I play in Roland piano partner was so good!!! ### 1/5 — Awful app. Can’t connect to either iPad or iPhone. *2024-01-23, version 2.0.15* So therefore all the extra sounds can’t be accessed. Why these aren’t just added to the fp-10 itself I don’t know. Such poor user experience. Please create a hardware update that allows these extra sounds to be accessed without the terrible app. ### 3/5 — Won’t connect *2024-01-23, version 2.0.15* Every single time i want to use my piano with this app, i have to delete it and reinstall it, otherwise it just wont connect to my piano. I have the FP-10 and though its connected to my ipad, it wont connect to the app. It just says scanning. The only way i can fix this is if i delete the app and reinstall it. Please, for the love of God…. Fix this ### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect *2024-01-05, version 2.0.15* Just taken brand new FP-10 out of box. One big selling factor was the Bluetooth connectivity. It doesn’t work. App can’t “see” piano. On either iPad or iPhone. Piano not visible on Bluetooth device listing either… 😡 ### 1/5 — Fp 10 *2023-12-23* Видит, но не соединяется. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2023-11-12, version 2.0.13* Don’t waste your time downloading this app. Save yourself time and frustration trying to connect to your Roland piano. All you get is “Cannot connect. Try again later.” I’ve tried several different devices, both android and iOS and none of them worked. ### 1/5 — Can’t connect! *2023-10-27* I can’t connect my piano (FP 30) to the Bluetooth! My Bluetooth just doesn’t see my piano (it doesn’t appear in my devises)! PLEASE FIX IT! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Discontinued *2026-07-17, version 2.0.16* It doesn’t work anymore ### 1/5 — 正しく反映しない。 *2025-09-19* ダイアリーの活動履歴の時間、鍵盤が記録されるのが面白いのだが全く正しく反映しない。 30分以上弾いていてもいつも記録は3~4分。 せっかく面白いのでちゃんと反映するようにしてほしい。 ### 1/5 — 録音出来ない *2025-04-30* スマホとは接続出来ませんでした。タブレットに接続して使っていますが、録音が出来たり出来なかったりします。9割くらい録音できない感じで使い物になりません。 ### 1/5 — ゴミ以下 *2025-02-01* アプリを開いたら数秒経った後に落ちる。本当にうざいしアプリのアカウント引き継ぎをしてもunknownとか言われてできないし、なんなの本当に。嫌い。ストレスの塊みたいなアプリ作りやがってもうちょっとどうにかならんのか？ ### 1/5 — Enregistrement catastrophique *2024-12-23* L’application sature dès que l’enregistrement du piano dure plus de 2min… c’est n’importe quoi, le song en lui même change lorsque qu’on le réécoute ### 1/5 — Ужасное приложение!!!!!!! *2024-12-11* Около года назад скачала данное приложение и с трудом подключила к нему клавиши по блютузу! После введения санкций приложение работало только с ВПН и то не всегда… В самом приложении много хороших и полезных функций, которыми, к сожалению, не воспользоваться на территории РФ! Который раз пытаюсь войти в приложение, включая разные ВПН, а никакого толку!!! При нажатии на приложение только черный экран, больше ничего….. ДОРОГИЕ РАЗРАБОТЧИКИ, ПОЖАЛУЙСТА, УБЕРИТЕ САНКЦИИ И ИСПРАВЬТЕ ПРИЛОЖЕНИЕ, ПОКА ВАШ РЕЙТИНГ НЕ СКАТИЛСЯ ДО -1!!!! Даже 1 звезды жаль на оценку данного приложения…. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-12-02, version 2.0.16* This app always crashes, the longest usage I’ve had has probably been around 5 mins. Please do something about this. ### 1/5 — not working now *2024-11-05, version 2.0.16* this apps worked in the past but now… with the upgrade (IOS 17,1) = crashed !! So sad ! I liked this apps :::: ### 1/5 — Fix these bugs *2024-10-05, version 2.0.16* I clicked on every single one and it just was loading and about a day, It was still loading, 0 stars if possible ### 1/5 — Not connecting to FP-10 ACR *2024-06-17, version 2.0.15* I have tried all possible recipe to connect my iPad via Bluetooth to the application and I always get the data acquisition failed error. I thought that the app could at least recognize a usb cable, no success either. I was able to connect with the other Roland app "Piano App" but I cannot use the bonus tones. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Compatibility *2026-02-21, version 2.0.16* This app is compatible with IOS 26.4. I have Beta. The Piano App at this date, is not compatible. I hope it will be soon. ### 5/5 — ピアノ録音機能が👍🏻💘 *2024-11-10* Bluetoothを繋げてピアノから直接演奏録音するのに使用しています🎶他のアプリでは録音はされるものの、ペダルが反映されなくて悲しかったのですが、ちゃんと音が伸びて嬉しいです！ありがとうございます.+*:ﾟ+｡.☆ ### 5/5 — Cool app *2023-07-08, version 2.0.13* Nice work on this app ### 5/5 — App muito bom, mas atenção ao comprar o piano. *2021-03-05* O aplicativo é muito bom, funcionando perfeitamente tanto no iPhone quanto no iPad, mas no caso de estar comprando seu piano no Brasil, tome o cuidado de verificar se a conexão bluetooth está habilitada no equipamento que escolher. Em alguns modelos há limitação de disponibilidade do bluetooth para algumas regiões, como é o caso do Brasil e o app será inútil. Comprei um F140R recentemente e funciona perfeitamente, mas em algumas versões mais antigas, não. ### 5/5 — Parfait avec un FP-10 *2021-02-14* Fonctionne parfaitement avec un FP-10. Permet même d’ouvrir de nouvelles fonctionnalités au clavier ! ### 5/5 — Very happy with the app *2020-12-31, version 2.0.12* Works perfectly with GP-607. Additional Rhythms would be appreciated :) ### 5/5 — I want a piano partner 3 *2020-12-25, version 2.0.12* I want it! This is amazing. But imagine piano partner 3 where there is even more features! Like more sections. Maybe add a way to play more than one recording! I love this! You guys rock UwU ### 5/5 — Bluetooth *2020-12-08, version 2.0.12* I have been using this with my Fp_10 . It has been working great until now. When I choice the dual piano, I lose Bluetooth. I’m thinking it was after my iPad installed an update. I am currently running OS 14.2. I would like to know if there will be an update for this app, maybe it would fix my problem. Cheers I have just downloaded this app on my iPhone running OS 14.1 I tried different functions and it worked perfectly. So the problem seems to be OS 14,2 upgrade. I hope your developer team read this and update this app. Cheers Thank you for you update, it is working great. Thing is a great app! Well I thought it was, I am having a problem with dual piano. Balance and tone shift . If + or - pressed, keeps going to end. Works if finger on ball slide if you know what I mean. I hope I’m in the right place here to let you know. Cheers. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-09-24, version 2.0.11* It got me to start playing and recording new song ideas again. ### 5/5 — It’s a nice app *2020-09-18, version 2.0.11* I only really need the app to connect via Bluetooth midi, and it works fine in doing that with no noticeable latency. The other little features on it are nice. Don’t really get why this is rated so low but whatever floats your goat a guess 😅 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
