Helpful learning tool

It does a great job detecting notes from images. It misses some notes but otherwise is very good. I give it four stars instead of five because I wish it has a loop function where I can set it to play certain passages over and over.

Muito bom

Excelente, muito prΓ‘tico e leitura muito boa

Too much offers

Honestly this app isnt even bad it just has so much offers like wdym i need to pay to use an app i know that its normal but there is just so much offers it ruins my experience i just want an app that can read sheet music with no money included bro worst app oat

At last

Finally an app that can read an entire piece of music, separate the parts and provide wonderful support for the learning voice. Bravo!!

The app is still unfinished.

I paid for a full-year subscription, but the app continues to prompt me to sign up for a paid plan every time I open it. This suggests that my subscription may not be recognized correctly. The app also feels unfinished, and its note-reading feature is inaccurate. Overall, the app is not worth paying for. The app needs to fix these issues and properly
