Aggravating To Edit
The 3d perspectives on the icons (such as keyboards on stands, speaker cabinets, drums, amps, mic stands, etc) make it hard to simply place items side by side or at clean angles on the plot. Rotating, positioning, and sizing to plot scale is frustrating on an iPad with limited workspace and arthritic fingers. I bought the "full feature" version and have gone back to Sharpie on paper on the job because the app is slow to use and has too many insufficiencies to make it practical in a realtime festival setting. UPDATE: And now I'm expected to "resubmit" sign in info to use app. Helpfully suggests my Google, Facebook, Apple accounts for signing in. I bought the damn thing, I shouldn't have to sign in every time I want to use it.

Waste of money
Doesn’t do everything I need. I bought a stage plot program online for the same price that does so much more. Tip: Don’t have the gray background on your plots, you can distinguish anything on the plot if it’s printed!

Just an ad
Not free, must purchase… just an ad for their app. Shady tactic means shady people means shady app. No thanks. UPDATE: the developer contacted me and felt that me being honest about how they misrepresent the product as free and then bait and switch you into buying it was a personal attack. Their rude response definitely cements my comments as factual about how they do business. Stay away and go with a reputable company with good support instead of this sloppy app. There are much better options to be had, which is the route we took. Thank heavens we did, from their response to an honest review we can see we made the right choice to avoid this developer, their tactics, their poor attitude, and their lack of professional customer service. To the developer: telling the truth is not a “personal attack” or a “false claim”, if you feel the truth is these things then you are shady, as I originally stated… and you just confirmed it. Good luck with your business, try to improve and maybe the truth won’t hurt so badly.

More free features
I really like the app I won’t lie. It has really cool features but I just wished it had just a little bit more free features so I can test it out a bit more. I ended up paying and really like it but I’m writing for those who probably would still want to try out other options. Really good app though, just needs improvements for the last two stars :)

Stage Layout and printing difficult to work with
Can’t adjust background to fit the stage and printing cuts off the plot, equipment list, etc making it incomplete. Had to do a screen grab to get whole stage printed….Big problems!!! Awful interface…
would give it 0 if i could
can only use instruments! cant even put a stage!!
Won’t even open
Downloaded this to test and trial 16 sept 2025. I see a splash screen and it immediately closes/crashes. Unusable at least for me.
Bad!!! I want my money back!
Not good at all!!!

Not user friendly
The free version is unusable. It won’t allow you to build a stage plot past one instrument. You will be “invited” with the option to their subscription as soon as you select a second instrument. Move on…
Too Much Withheld
I saw the many bad reviews, but still wanted to give it a try for myself - to give it the benefit of the doubt. I couldn’t even make an educated guess on how well or poorly the app works because if I tried to even delete an errant addition, I got slapped in the face with a paywall.
This app is a bad gamble for the consumer, even at only $7-8 (no reliable info on the actual cost) for the “Pro” version. There’re many elements in the UI and general marketing that SCREAM “This is sketchy.” (Only two Instagram posts since Christmas 2021, only one of which had anything to do with the app?!) This could be the best app ever, and I still wouldn’t pay for the full version because of all of this and more. You’re better served using Pages or even MSPaint for your stage plots.

StagePlot Guru
Hours of work with too little reward… so far the worst I’ve ever used. Not for the real professional world.
Unable to try it
Unable to see if this is any good as everything is locked to paid app so not even able to work out what it is capable of!

Add please
Hello! Add please icon conductor!
Needs some fixes, but really a great concept for engineers
Wish they had some more bug fixes for basic copying and saving
Not useful
Don’t bother. First of all, I had to buy pro version to get more than 4 props. This is an app designer’s idea of what a plot should look like. Neither the plot not the pin list are particularly readable. Yes all the info is in there but it just looks like romper room. Missing all kinds of stuff like low profile wedges, any rf, and pedalboards. I would never in a million years hand this to a stage manager or audio vendor.

Still has same issues
I’ve been reading all the reviews for this app, and no wonder it has a low rating. They still have the same issues as 6 years ago per their reviews.
1. Still lots of pop-ups that you need to buy the subscription for anything you want to do.
2. Most equipments are locked.
3. No search button to look for a specific item.
4. Cannot rotate the items.
5. I’m not sure if they have lecterns?
6. Unable to edit/delete items without paying for the subscription.
7. No zoom in/out.
8. I’m trying to built a theater stage, I don’t think this is the app to use for that.

Awful
Haven’t really felt the need to write a review for an app until today. Can’t do anything without paying the $4.99. No obvious delete button after you drop an image in. They grab you with the free version, but limit the what you can actually do without paying creating an essentially a useless app.
