## Reflow Reviews in United States

### ***-- "Disappointed"
I purchased Reflow a few years ago through the App Store.  It was never great but worked well enough to transcribe drum scores and be able to view them on a screen.  Now, a few years later, I open the app to use it again and see that it has changed to a subscription model.  Despite having purchased it already, not all of the previous functions are available to me anymore — unless I pay for a subscription.  I understand why the change was made but I am still disappointed.  I don’t use Reflow enough to justify paying for yet another subscription so I guess I am back to writing out drum scores with pencil and paper.
-- AlienMindProbe, 2025-11-17

### *---- "Reflow"
I don’t know if you realize this app is missed up bad. I’ve use this Reflow for a long time and you guys finally working now it’s 
No longer works so I want a refund. It don’t work now.
-- R &amp; J Crouch, 2024-09-03

### ****- "iPad not saving my notations"
Notations disappear after I make them. I don’t see a save button. Love the app otherwise
-- Joequilter, 2024-08-27

### **--- "The new update is frustrating"
A lot of the new UI just straight up doesn’t work, or is more difficult to use. 

It’s harder to write tabs/notations as other things now get in the way of being able to hit the button I am trying to hit and there is no way for me to move it aside.

I am unable to save my tempo changes as it’s just the numbers keyboard but nowhere to enter it.

It’s also quite frustrating that features that used to be free are now locked behind a payed subscription rather than a one-time purchase or given at the beginning
-- mordy-mord, 2024-07-17

### ****- "Writing a score for Piano"
It has been a few years since I have used Reflow. I used to use it a lot and am now getting reacquainted with it. There seems to have been quite a few changes. Using it on a grand staff is a bit more difficult, I’m sure I will get used to it, but there are changes that are not intuitive for someone writing a score for piano. Also, the button for sharps is not working. I hope you put out an update that fixes this soon.
-- 1anonymous, 2024-01-23

### ***-- "Lost Documents"
Was working great but files have been lost. I know they exist because when I try to creat a new one the program renames it with a number at the end. Very frustrating
-- DrumDad74, 2022-12-30

### ***** "Needs some work"
Love the app, but it’s frustrating that there’s no notation for effect cymbals, flams and double pedal
-- smokepurpp, 2020-09-21

### ****- "It’s improved, but it still has problems..."
This is your long-time Reflow user again, back all the way from Version 2. Thanks a lot for fixing my problems with version 15.2, especially the ones dealing with volume dynamics! However, we still have these problems to deal with:

– Text on a staff shows if you’re in page view, but it DOES NOT APPEAR if you’re in horizontal view, which I use all the time!
– If you use an instrument with a grand staff and add some notes to the staff, or some dynamics, you get a RIDICULOUSLY large gap between the top staff and the bottom staff (even if none of the notes are on ledger lines) and there’ll also be more space than necessary between the bottom staff and the bottom of the page (in horizontal mode).
– I increased the tempo of a section of measures, which started with two tied whole notes, to be DOUBLE of that of the previous section, and the tied note played for the length of two tied whole notes at the tempo BEFORE the actual tempo change instead of at the correct tempo!
– If you’re in page mode and have a lot of stuff on the page at once (e.g. a full band’s worth of staves), the page content does NOT resize to fit the page (or vice versa), meaning that you can easily have parts that are clipped off or even removed entirely by the bottom of the page!
– Occasionally, when I’m in Edit mode and go to the instruments panel and click on an instrument’s info button, the app will crash. Note that I’m currently using iOS 13.3 on an iPhone 6S+.
– Having more variety of bends would be nice on the mobile version.
– Could you note (if you haven’t already) how long a double-dotted note should be in relation to a normal note in the user manual? I think it should be the note length plus 3/4 of that note’s length, but I’m not certain. NOTE: Double-dotted quarter notes still render as a quarter note plus an eighth note PLUS a dotted sixteenth!
– If you change a stringed instrument’s tuning (e.g. tune all the strings down by a half-step), it doesn’t automatically transpose the tablature notes to their original correct pitches. In case someone wants to keep the same fretting (with this new, different pitch), this should be an option.
– We still can’t change the tempo marking midway through a measure; only at the start of it.

The good news is that this time around, the number of problems are far fewer than in 15.2. However, they should still be checked out when you guys get the chance, particularly the first five I listed here.
Thanks for your consideration and support!

### ****- "Retracted Bad Review - Beaming"
I sincerely apologize for the bad review based on the beaming capabilities of Reflow. I have since figured out what I was doing incorrectly with the software. I do wish that the software was a bit more intuitive but it DOES do beaming by using the [+] or [-] keys. I used to be a software developer and I believe that software stands on the ease of use through its interface. I am still learning this app and had trouble even after reading the manual. Anyway, Reflow does create nice looking scores and with a little more manipulation and time I’m sure this software will train me how to use it more effectively. To the software developers... please accept my humble apologies for the previous bad review. You efforts are appreciated. 

My scores look juvenile at best without the ability to connect notes with beams. Every picture on your app page shows beautiful scores with nice tidy beams. I paid for this to do basic scores on drums for students right from my iPad. I will have to just find another solution. This looks horrible and I feel like you’ve misrepresented the product. Reflow has no business being in the Apple Store for iOS. Shame on you! 
Seriously.  This is a pitiful effort bringing a half thought out effort to the market place. Please disclose your application’s limitations on your Apple Store page for iPad users. 
This app is of limited value to iOS users.
-- Hazyegg, 2019-12-20

### *---- "No website support"
How do I contact developer?
Website not working!
Is this app only for guitar??
I was looking for drum set notation.
I’ll change rating once I get answers.
