Stage Plot Guru for iPad

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.

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.

Not free, must purchase… just an ad for their app. Shady tactic means shady people means shady app. No thankz

This app is exactly what I was looking for and some things work great, such as finding a placing equipment on the stage and adding text labels. But almost everything else is a mess. For example, smaller objects are nearly impossible to resize or rotate. There is, for all intents and purposes, no text formatting. If you make a copy of a stage plot and edit it the copy it messes up the copy, which defeats the purpose. There are fields for things like notes and equipment details but I could not figure out how to populate any of these. This app could be fantastic with some dev effort and proper testing and would be a great bargain at $4.99, but not in it’s current state.

Between blurry exports, no rotating options, inconsistent item sizes, and other quirks. I wish I could have know the limitations before being forced to buy. Maybe a 7 day trail would be better.

Things I liked. Lots that sucked. Low Rez, image is jumbled and offset from iPad - to file creating. Would not write a bad review if this app cost $2. But for $7!!! Yikes. Rip off. Lots they could do to make this better.

Long time user and supporter of SPG. Keeps improving. Perfect for a quick solution for a quality StagePlot. Excellent regular updates and customer support is top-notch. They have live support at stageplotguru.com and if I ever needed a question answered, someone is always there. Another great point is—NO SUBSCRIPTION yay! One price and regular updates for life. I read some other reviews of users who experienced a bug, but from what I’ve seen so far these guys are right on top of it and usually fix things quickly. It’s an older app- but it’s solid. Highly recommend.

IHi.. I never had to review any app in my life. But with this app I had to.. You have to improve the complete app.. I invest like 2 hours in data entry for nothing. You can’t export the Data.. restart the app and the layout is destroyed.. I want my money back!!

The ap has no fonts when I comment while using the App main page. It’s invisible. Came to the main apps download page to finish my comments. Please make the input page so we can sort the mics monitors & DI’s together. That’s the area for all the typing the description and channels and note. Also when I try to print the stage layout shifts and is no longer centered on the print preview page. This is frustrating to try and re-center all your layouts. Please make the stage area floor white as an option or just all white background. Would like to see more the stage than the comments taking up a lot of space above the stage plot. Using green or gray as a stage color uses much more ink when printing many copies. Seems a lot of drums percussion items like the app was made by a drummer, needs more items like quad box outlets for power, more amp selection in the rigs and monitor choices, speakers used. Also more angles for keyboard set up maybe 4k degrees angles. It’s a good starting point but maybe also just a page for the stage without as much font above it would be good 👍🏽 I think this ap is good because your not charging a weekly or monthly rate to customer or even a yearly price is the main reason I bought the ap.
