User reviews

Visiblement pas maintenu à jour

Tres bonne idée, complémentaire de tunepal, pour trier facilement ses morceaux et même le regrouper en set. Malheureusement le play-back ne fonctionne pas donc imposs d’écouter les morceau (iphone 13 mini / iOS 17.6.1).
La dernière mise à jour de l’app date d’il y a 5 ans. Ce qui explique peut être l’obsolescence du développement

C’est étonnant qu’elle soit toujours sur l’AppStore si elle n’est pas compatible avec les derniers hardware / os

Best Option Available

Everyone in my fiddle group uses this and encourages newcomers to get it. It’s extremely handy and easy to edit (with some practice). I really wish I could create new songs from scratch. That would make it so much easier to add and share tunes with each other. Also not sure why I can’t just add a file that’s on my iPad (unless I’m missing something)

Great but loses edita

I use this app every and I love it when it works. A massive bug makes it lose edits to ABC tunes. I spent hours tweaking a few tunes last night, and this morning they all reverted to the previous version. Store backups of your edits elsewhere. It’s so frustrating.

Excellent and intuitive!

A great way to jot down a melody, listen to it, then save it as a MIDI file or PDF score, and print it too! The ability to use ABC notation is very convenient and intuitive. I’m not sure whether it’s just my phone but sometimes it doesn’t successfully save my edits, so I’m careful to copy my work as a text file before exiting the app.

Tunebook Glitches

I like this app but I find that I can only listen with my headphones in. It sometimes plays and sometimes not.
Also the alignment in settings are all out.
