The UI doesn’t want to work. Very buggy.

The UI is very buggy, and crashes often. I’ll go to try to load an object only to have no response from the UI, like I’m tapping on a dead or nonexistent link. I’ve never been able to get this app to work on my iPhone.

Incredible tool for music making

This is a really powerful tool for music making that is available for iPad users. Moreover, I am really amazed that the same version available for free on the desktop is the same one on iPad. This should serve as an example to other plugin developers to follow. Great job, developer!

Won't save files

I spent hours working on a patch, only to find out my saved file was not, in fact, saved. The autosaved file loaded and it was 2 days old. I saved a different file to the same directory and it also did not save, while saying it did. Useless.
