### 1/5 — Review

*2023-06-05*

The app doesn’t show how to use and is very hard. It has potential but needs a how to guide and more. Please fix

### 1/5 — Not worth anything

*2019-01-24*

Don’t bother, it doesn’t full screen properly, and it is hard to fathom the menus, save, delete seems to be randomised. Just lost data! Also poor pitch graphic, lines to thick etc. Good start, needs tidying up on both menu and ease of use.

### 3/5 — Almost

*2017-02-11*

This app could be really great, but it is so user unfriendly. The instructions on how to use it are vague at best and there is no demo I can find on how to get the best out of it. The developers definitely need to provide a demo video on how to use it. Setting up a play and then trying to edit is impossible.one mistake on placing a player, and you have to start over. Almost great 
,but lacking user friendliness

### 1/5 — Don't get

*2015-12-23, version 1.9*

This app is not user friendly.  There are no instructions and no way to get help.
