Notion

I used this app daily for 3+ years. Had to work on other things in my life for a couple years. Returning to daily use has been frustrating and anti creative. Todays experience was to add lyrics. Multiple reads of new manual didn’t correlate with what the app or file was showing. Now I’m out of time with nothing done. Sad! Not as intuitive anymore. Next time when I have time I’ll find the login for forum and support. Then the time after that do what I set out to do tonight… Especially to get to app keyboard so I can use quick commands when mixer guitar or piano are the only options. Or show “add lyric” in text box when following manuals directions. I so look forward to upgrading it to 5 stars when it’s amazingly intuitive for composers again. Maybe it’s just me…

Notion App in fact did good job, compare with StaffPad and Dorico, this app is worth to get more attention.

I would like to use my digital keyboard to input the notes. But I can’t find the Bluetooth connecting setting in app. Dose it support Bluetooth connection?

This program is getting worse by the update!! Every time there is an update my heart races just because i know is gonna get even worse!! Now the search engine is a mess and it blocks the program every single time !! Honestly it always feels like an really bad April fool’s joke, and yeah every single update makes a new hell and on top they want us to submit a report like is my job or im getting paid for it !! If anyone in that company was a musician using this app this wouldn’t happen!!!

This has been the most frustrating app to learn basic things. There is a lack of step by step explanation online. Their videos rush through the program skipping basic steps. Test it yourself. Try to find how to change a key signature in notion. This is just one example. Sometimes program won’t enter notes and I could not find any answer as to why. Not easy to use.

May I suggest you add an option to lock a score so you can play it and scroll through without mistakenly grabbing notes and moving them or adding staff components in error. Perhaps the feature is there but I’ve not found it.

The software does not seem to be respecting the coda symbol. Would you kindly fix it please. Thank you kindly.

great app, i am really enjoying it. there are just some bugs and annoying things that if fixed, on my opinion, can improve the overall user experience especially the app is used with the apple pencil. I have tried more and i this this one gives the best experience when combined with an apple pencil, superior to the others I have tried so far. while i am writing, I struggle when i copy and paste. to paste some notes i copied into the score, i have to move the pointer first by tapping the point i want my copied chunk with the finger first, and then I can paste in it. However it comes naturally to select the point where i want my copied notes to go by using the finger tip of the pencil, but it doesn’t work this way and i often end up pasting stuff somewhere else. when i use the hand writing, the apps tend freeze and I end up loosing some of the work. and the handwriting overall needs improvement because it is often not accurate. Other than that you guys are doing an amazing job! i love this app!

This is the best musical notation app on an iPad, especially if you are using the Apple Pencil. If you are serious about notation and have a lot of work to do preparing scores, you should buy the desktop version too, because it has some additional features and workflow options on your computer. Then, you have an amazing powerhouse for composing and arranging. The available sounds are a great addition to your possibilities. (Note that the "mobile" version now also runs on computers! But, it has the same features as the iPad version, if you want the additional features for true professional level scoring, you still have to buy the Desktop version separately.)

I used to have an account where i bought the studio one +. I tried logging in with my new ipad but it doesn’t work. Please help thank you.
