Not Ready for Professional Use

As a teaching tool, or perhaps as a means of jotting down simple projects and ideas, this would be a great app. However, for the price I paid, I was expecting something that would actually allow me to do real, grownup, professional work. This app does not meet the needs of a professional arranger, and I am disappointed that I had to spend $40 to find that out.

One of the more positive aspects of this app, in spite of its myriad of shortcomings, is the handwriting recognition feature. It has the potential to become a powerful tool for composers, arrangers, and copyists. But until the developers come up with a better, more efficient way to handle tuplets and other, more complex functions, this app will continue to be nothing more than an expensive novelty. The company should either lower the price or offer more functionality.
