### 1/5 — music

*2026-08-30, version 2.5.5*

need my money back

### 5/5 — 😡

*2026-08-15, version 2.5.5*

I can’t believe this is such a waste of money🤣 just kidding. This is the best I’ve ever I love using it.

### 1/5 — Not Very Accurate

*2026-06-11, version 2.5.5*

I wanted to notate some simple songs.  I sang slowly and using "loo" instead of words.  The app didn't get almost anything right!  I tried several times and deleted the app in frustration.

### 5/5 — Simply and express feature

*2026-05-28, version 2.5.5*

Please don’t expect this will analyze very complicated music. This is for very initial recording of your ideas. It works well to record few minutes melody

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-05-15, version 2.5.5*

I wasted about two hours of my life that I will never get back trying to get started using this tool and never got past setting up a password I then tried doing something with the same company as part of a desktop application and couldn’t get anywhere there either very very poor design and buggy as hell

### 1/5 — Keinen Cent wert

*2026-03-30*

Die App funktioniert schlichtweg nicht. Bricht spontan ab… Mal bei der Aufnahme bereits nach 5 einzelnen Tönen , mal beim Analysieren.

Damit kann man nix anfangen.

### 1/5 — Crashes every 2 minutes or less

*2026-02-16, version 2.5.5*

Paid almost $3 for an app that I can’t even use because it constantly crashes. Great work. Real state of the art operation you got going on here.

### 1/5 — Users unfriendly

*2026-01-30, version 2.5.5*

Very users unfriendly. Paid and tried to log in but failed because password didn’t match. There is no place to reset the password.

### 1/5 — Less than 1star

*2026-01-30, version 2.5.5*

I want my 2.99 back. I have never bought an app as bad as this one . Doesn’t work crashes , not even close to the notes . Do not buy

### 1/5 — Not Functional

*2026-01-11, version 2.5.5*

I immediately received an error message that apparently indicates a server error for the app. When I finally got an analysis of a song (after repeatedly rebooting) the notation was truly bizarre . This app is truly unusable and I would highly recommend having it stripped of any credibility whatsoever.
