Finale KeyPad

Poor instructions and difficult to install. Still can’t get it up and running. Frustrating!!

Is it possible to use this app with relying on a computer?

This app is not working for me. It might be wonderful for others…

This is going to make finale so much faster!

To my surprise this only supports Simple Note entry, negating anyone who needs to do serious work. Simple Note entry is not something any normal or professional would use, especially since the power and speed in Finale is all the other tools, including Speedy Note entry. Seems the designers of this program knew nothing about Finale or what composers and arrangers need to do. If they actually programmed this in a more sophisticated way to use the actual tools people use in Finale, thus would be a useful program. Instead it is a toy only to be played with by novices who would not be doing anything serious.

This has saved me a lot of time. The only down side is that the keys on the top row and the column to the right (starting from the sharp sign up to the top corner) sends me to the navigation section of the app. I don’t know if it’s because I’m using my iPad or not. I figure it’s a coding error. Still, it’s a useful app for a busy music teacher.
