Notion

Bought this app when it was a paid app. Now I have to purchase an upgrade to get the functionality I had already paid for. Customer support told me they had generously “upgraded” my paid app to a free one. They told me I had not lost any functionality but this isn’t true as I used to be able to edit which I can no longer do without paying…..again! Very annoyed and won’t purchase from them again.

Took some time but got used to the update and there are many improvements! But the old version made beautifull prints, but since the update the notes are thick and crowded on the paper. The syncope function behaves not always in a reliable way suddenly. Delete (empty) measures doesn’t work. Hope to see this fixed soon.

This was one of my favorite apps. I’m a music teacher and I used it al the time to write down short songs. Since the update so much had changed and I do no longer understand how it works. Pencil doesn’t work anymore. I contacted help desk several times, nothing is solved. Why did you change so much? Can I contact you in Dutch?

I’m running this app on an iPad Pro 3rd generation and I bought the in-app pencil recognition. Presently I use the app by importing XML-files, which do not impose any problem in MuseScore. These XML-files are generated from a PDF-file by SheetMusicScanner. I switched off the pencil-input option, but it still gets activated (in options still switched off) and then intervenes with the other input. In the beginning you can change the instrument and the long/short names. After 2 or 3 parts this becomes impossible; the app freezes and other input becomes impossible. The app freezes also on various other actions like exporting the file, inserting flats/sharps or any other type of alteration of the score. I re-installed the app twice. But after the second (the third when I include the initial installation) installation the app remains frozen. I cannot open another score anymore because I cannot reach the homepage of the app anymore. I restarted the iPad now three times and the app stays frozen. I cannot recommend this app in any way.

1 year ago I bought this app including the handwriting option, and it was a very nice program with lots of options. But after updating the app to version 3.0, there is no Restore Purchase possible. You can click the restore option but nothing happens! How can this be solved, else I’ve lost a total purchase of 26 Euro for this complete app? Update: very good and informative support from Presonus by a personal message about this problem. Problems are solved with the latest update 3.0.1…great job, thanks !!

There are few improvements made to the poor UX of this app. I still cannot do basic things like insert a notes or rest in between notes in the same measure. The manual is incomplete and not maintained.

Of course, this could be a temporary issue, or due to personal usage, but I immediately applied for a refund on the apple store. As per december 2020 I do not recommend this.

The lyric function don’t work sins the latest system update 13.4 Please fix it.

I don’t like this app. The layout is confusing and the handwriting tool doesn’t work that good. I would like to get my money back but it seems impossible

I play the drums professionally for over 30 years and am constantly looking for the options of writing my parts for the rehearsals, my own ideas, for my students etc in the format that I can easily switch platforms. I bought the app some years ago on advise of my colleague. Somehow I couldn’t get the ease of writing the parts quickly without going in loops and wasting a lot of time with not satisfying result. Yesterday I saw for the first time an option of handwriting and bought it right away. Alas, writing decent parts with the Apple Pencil is not possible... as soon as I write something it’s totally misinterpreted and writing the hi-hat parts (X) is impossible. I don’t want to sound negative but after paying more than €20 I hope to get some results. Some reaction from the developer would be much appreciated! If not I’m forced to choose the option of the refund. Kind regards
