What's New in pianoscaper

1.0.5

January 30, 2025

Fix (more of a workaround really...) for device orientation messing up layout due to changed APIs (sorry, this has been broken for ages) User sample import no longer supported - (sorry, it's complicated, but I didn't break it...) Updated support URL - so you can let me know about broken things ;-)

Limited ambient amusement

If you have zero musical ability and just want to play around with dreamy ambient soundscapes, this is an app for you. If you want control over things like sounds or chords or key, then you should just graduate to the sequel to this app called Touchscaper.

Abandoned.

Oh dear god!

This sounds so relaxing and took me out of my anxiety ridden head it brought me to tears. Thank you so much.

I hope this app is still being developed...

...because I recently bought it and Guitarscaper. I’ve owned the full Moodscaper for several years. I *really* like these apps, so much that I purchased them in spite of not being updated in a long while.

To the developer: I don’t have to have new features, just please don’t let them become outdated or orphaned.
