Needs an update
This has become the standard in my circles, and the desktop version is good, but the iOS app hasn’t been updated in over a year and as if late, it keeps crashing (iOS 14). When it works, it’s only good for listening, not admin, uploading/sharing,
They messed with it too much
Used to be my favorite app, I’ve turned so many songwriters and artists onto it. Then they had a bunch of server issues last year, and the new update only lets you stay logged in for four hours at a time which is the single most annoying thing ever. For a paid monthly subscription I don’t want to deal with logging in every single time. I’d say go elsewhere now, it used to be good but it’s not anymore. At least their customer service is kind. Use DISCO instead.

App not working at all
Right around Christmas the app actually broke and won’t let you login at all, no matter how many times you change your password. The same username/password combo works on the website, but the app won’t work for some reason. If they don’t fix this then the app is ACTUALLY unusable, go to somewhere else.

Effectively Useless
What is wrong with this app?? It constantly has server issues and doesn’t connect to the network, so I can’t access any of the songs in my catalogue. Even when they’re set to offline, the app freaks out as it tries to connect and reconnect - so listening to offline songs is a no-go too. Everything was fine at first, but then after a while this issue started and is now constant every time I open the app. It’s effectively useless. Defeats my whole purpose of using Songspace. I need a reliable way to store songs in one place and be able to pull them up at any moment to share. Songspace, please fix your app - I see others with this same issue from years ago. Please do something about it.

Still figuring it out
Songspace is a great platform and a tremendous idea. The only issue is that it hasn’t worked very smoothly for me.
In order for me to get the app to show me my catalogue (250+ songs) I have to delete it and re download it. Otherwise it will say no connection to server and hit me with an endless load screen.
I haven’t quite figured out the pitching stuff as well as syncing with other publishers but it seems like the usefulness is there with everything it just isn’t quite ironed out yet.

Good, sometimes
Love how Songspace works but this app is a bust.. only half the time or less, does the app actually load up the songs you’ve submitted to playback. I literally have to undownload and redownload just to pull the song up. Frustrating
Where’s the pitching features?
I love song space but I would love to see the pitch status of songs while on the mobile side too, especially who listened to the song and where. That was my main reason to pay the subscription in the first place 🕵🏻♂️🧐 everything else seems pretty great about the app, clean and not lagging.
Editing issues
I was trying to use the app to write a song and it won’t let me scroll down to edit the page.
A silly subscription?
I looked at the subscription prices and I did not apply for any subscription which is a good thing.... if anyone likes to write poems, songs and other stuff.... I would stay away from this app and use ‘hum for songwriters’ or ‘progressions lyrics’ because ‘hum for songwriters’ and ‘progressions lyrics’ don’t require any silly subscription.

Great App for Songwriters!
I've been using Songspace for several years and have found it to be extremely useful in developing ideas and organizing my songs and ideas. You can create a link to share with others but keep control of it by only letting the user stream and not download and if you're uncomfortable with that link being out there too long you can disable it by making it private. It also has a great look to the person you're sending it too complete with lyrics. I do miss the big red Record button and hope you bring that back. I've recorded several ideas and developed them within the app and that was really convenient. My only complaint is when writing lyrics, at a certain point you can't see what you're writing and have to close the keyboard to see it and open the keyboard again and guess where you're typing. Also, when you just want to read the lyrics, the keyboard keeps popping up as you scroll down. Please fix that! Thanks for a great, useful app!

They deleted all of my lyrics and I don’t have a back up
I wrote a song that I really loved on it and IT IS GONE!!!!! They DELETED ALL OF MY LYRICS!!! I don’t have a backup because I was just experimenting. What also is really annoying is that it stops at a certain place and the keyboard blocks all of the words. Every time I had to edit it I had to guess where I was at. Making it take twice as long

This is really good
Aight so technically you could just use the notes app but this acts like an iCloud which is very useful but a couple recommendations is being able to upload a beat to a song or at least on the desktop version, and also, if the writing paper was more zoomed out like how it is in Microsoft word would make it feel like the user is being less condensed and claustrophobic

New Update Issues
I love this app, I’ve been using it for years with no issues, but after the update it won’t let me record anything.. was looking to contact support, but couldn’t find contact info.
Doesn’t Work
You can’t reorder songs in playlists, it doesn’t display your playlists in the order you set them. It keeps showing me a “Delete” button by default which is very easy to accidentally click on and is terrifying. I’m in love with Songspace but absolutely zero use for this app. Full redesign please.
Great app, just one complaint
Songspace is awesome. Easy UI that lets me focus on the music rather than on the app. Until I try to type/edit lyrical content... I find myself selecting words and moving the cursor around very often while writing lyrics, but the text fields don't respond properly in-app, and scrolling up/down the page seems buggy on iPhone 5. Hoping for an update soon!
