Improving by leaps and bounds
I have been using this app for a long time. I was initially impressed at the ease I could enter music on the screen of my iPhone (much smaller back then) and how easy it was to teach to non-musicians. While it doesn’t do everything, it does what it it’s best at, note entry, exceptionally well and has continued to improve over the years. The audio playback features and display control provide me what I need to get the job done. I consider it an invaluable part of my musical tool kit, having prepared a few thousand songs with it.

Doesn’t work at all, and hasn’t for years
I downloaded this app back in 2013, and it worked great. Somehow, it very quickly deteriorated, to the point where it has not even been capable of fully opening for several years. This app does not open, and it does not run. Unless it actually can be updated to run, it should be deleted from the App Store.

Awesome!
I love this app! Everything's about it is perfect. I just wish that I could change the time signature while I'm making the song. I probably can and I just can't see it but if that's the case, please make it a little more noticeable. Thank you! I love the app!
Forcing me to buy the the full version
I downloaded time ago, and it freely let me use the playback feature and create scores, but now it restricts me to 40 measures of playback and lets me save 10 songs
Superb
I couldn't find a single efficient score creator that didn't cost money to use it normally or one that worked well, but then I stumbled across this app.
It's very useful for on-the-go writing, and holds lots more music than you can hold in a folder. Although it can sometimes be tedious, it's definitely my prefered scoring app. If you ever are confused about the controls, just click on help in the menu.

Terrible Update
What a rude update! This app was fine before, if a little buggy, but now they suddenly want you to pay $5 to make more than 10 songs! Absolutely terrible and I will not be using this app any more.
App is Great
I really enjoy this app! It has a ton of really useful features and works really well on iPhone. The ads don't really get in the way and they aren't all over the place either! I would recommend this to anyone!
NEEDS CRESCENDOS AND DECRESCENDOS
This needs crescendos and decrescendos added to it.
Not bad, but not very good either!
This app could definitely be improved. The tuba doesn't even sound anything like a tuba. There is no base clarinet. THERE IS NO BARITONE/EUPHONIUM!!!! Also, you cannot change time signature, tempo, or key signature during a song. You cannot have different styles (March style, overture style, etc). Also, EVERYTHING is played at the same volume, except some of the woodwinds are louder at some parts. PLEASE add some of these features ASAP, and for goodness sakes, ADD A BARITONE/EUPHONIUM!!!!

Response from developer
Dear user! You can change time/key signature and tempo for a measure in the middle of a song by selecting a note of that measure, then choose 'Edit Selected Measure' from the menu. You can adjust the volume of an instrument by tapping the speaker icon while the song is being played. Thanks for your feedback!
Terrible instruments
The instrument tones are far from what they actually sound like in real life. I can't believe I wasted time making a song with this application.
Simultaneous notes please!
The app seems to me very easy to use , but how can i write a piano note for note ? Need to add this to the app please
Great!
The best app I've seen in this field. Easy and fun to use.
Awesome
A bit difficult to use at the beggining, but it gets easier
Great
It's a very good tool for students but it would be nice if you could create chords using one track. As in independently apply notes to create a chord because the way you apply chords in this version doesn't give you control over the rhythm of the chord
Awesome app
It's a great app and it's free. The only thing is you can't download the whole thing, only 20 measures, but still a great app. You can also listen to what you wrote. It's also really easy to use and not confusing.
Ok
Its good and does what i need, but its the biggest pain to use. Its confusing and frustrating. I cant figure out how to loop measures more than once or copy large parts easily (without miss clicking and having to start over). I cant really complain tho, it is free
Very useful
This app is great because it allows me to compose anywhere including my bed at midnight when I can't sleep. I would like to see some improvements such as being able to make notes staccato and adding repeat signs. Other than that, everything works well and is quite easy to use.
Alright
I'm just using this app as a "starting point" to where I want my arrangement to go, and it's very easy to use and understand, however, my greatest pet peeve is that the last note of every measure holds out longer than it should. What is that? No matter how short I make it. I make it a 16th note and it plays like a half note and messes up my song. Also we should be able to add crescendos and decrescendos to everything including drums. Also, the contrabass doesn't hold out the notes. Please fix these issues.

Please add staccato!
This app is great but I'm making a piece that needs staccato notes and I can't.
Sound quality
Very easy too use and useful. However the sound quality for the piano isn't my favourite. Also I cannot seem to find any crescendo/ diminuendo function, Nor can I find any other dynamics. Could also use a more complete help section.
