Good Concept, but too many issues

The concept/idea of this app is amazing, especially for a dancer like myself. I do wish we had more options to adding music outside of iTunes and Youtube, such as spotify, dropbox, voice memo, etc. Unfortunately, the Youtube option to add music pretty much never works for me, so I’m confined to downloading from iTunes. Another issue is that often times, the music just doesn’t play regardless of how many times I press the play button. It’s like a gamble every time I open the app in hopes that it will work.

Not usable at all

It literally does not let me add anything. I just got the app and deleted it a minute later. Every time I press the ‘+’ button the app immediately shuts down and closes. Every single time I pressed the button it shuts down. How am I supposed to get anything done without being able to add anything??

Hello, We recently released version 2.3 which helped to solve a couple issues with crashes on iPad (we mainly build for iPhone&iWatch) as well as some music selection issues. If you are still experiencing issues with the newest version, please feel free to connect with us by emailing us over at friends@fwd.dance. We hope to hear from you! Best, F.W.D.

So unreliable!... but great if it works.

Really disappointing to see how the app I’ve loved and used for so long (bought it as Songmark like 2 years ago) is barely usable anymore... especially because this awesome functionality isn’t available anywhere else. This recent version closes out the second I open it. Every. Single. Time. Then I delete & re-download and it will work until maybe the next day, then it’s back to refusing to open. The last reviewer’s problem doesn’t seem too uncommon.

Also I miss the function where you could see the whole queue of songs and reorder them.

Get the Apple Watch!

If you have an iWatch then you will thank me later! It is so convenient to be able to set marks from in front of the class.

At times it refuses to import from apple music and after the recent update, it wont import at all
