### 5/5 — Sensacional

*2024-02-16*

Muito divertido e simples de usar. A opção de mudar para partitura rítmica é um bonus. Só lamento que não seja cross-plataform. Comprei a versão para windows e preciso pagar de novo se eu quiser desbloquear no iPhone. Avalie bem seu sistema antes de decidir onde comprar.

### 1/5 — Verdammt man

*2023-03-06*

Verdammt man

### 1/5 — Nicht Klangbänder

*2023-03-06*

Sound muss besser sein und mehr Tasten

### 4/5 — Tolles Programm

*2022-11-05*

Tolles Programm! Habe es bisher genutzt, um Übungsblätter für die Blockflöte zu erstellen.
Würde mir wünschen, dass man PDFs auch im Querformat exportieren kann

**Developer response:** Super feedback! Vielen Dank! Unser kleines Team arbeitet mit Leidenschaft daran es Dir möglich zu machen! ;) Stay tuned! Liebe Grüße aus der Welt der Musik

### 4/5 — Tolles Programm 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

*2022-07-31*

Für den Unterricht in der GS ideal.

Eine Frage habe ich: Ist das so gewollt, dass in den Einstellungen die Notenfarben bei Neustart immer wieder zurückgestellt werden? Wenn ich zB Tubes einstelle, dann wird danach immer wieder Classplash angezeigt. 🤷🏼‍♂️

### 5/5 — Verzauberung

*2021-11-04*

Ich bin verblüfft tolle Arbeit!!! 
Wirklich auf Kinder angepasst sehr toll. 
5 Sterne von mir

### 5/5 — Notationsprogramm Nummer 1 für Bildung

*2021-10-28*

Die App ist echt auf Kinder und Jugendliche angepasst worden! Damit verzaubere ich meine Musikschüler und somit mein Klassenzimmer in eine amüsante und nachhaltige Erfahrung! 5 Sterne von mir!

### 5/5 — Breathe marks and note letters

*2021-04-23*

I like ease of use with this app. I would like even more if I could add breath marks. I would also like to have an option for the notes to display letters instead of googly eyes, (the eyes are fun). The letters would help me when learning a new song.

### 3/5 — Sem som

*2020-04-11*

Seria interessante se funcionasse o áudio rsrs

**Developer response:** Por favor confirme se não está em "modo de silêncio". É um problema comum que a maioria das apps não reproduzem se tiver este modo ativado. Não hesite nos contactar para esclarecer mais dúvidas: support@classplash.com

### 5/5 — Super fun music app

*2018-12-05*

This little gem is so flexible and has a lot of cool features. The ability to generate solfege singing and also colour code the notes is a fantastic ear training aid for me. I have been importing jazz solos into it for sight singing.

**Developer response:** Hello Ray, wow thank you! We are very happy about your review! We hope that it supports you learning process! Don't hesitate to contact us if you need any further help! We would appreciate it!
