Legacy Musicnotes Viewer (Unsupported) App Reviews

116 add

Love it, but still buggy as all hell.

I use Musicnotes on a daily basis. I no longer know how I would be able to handle the large amount of music I have to play without it. That said, now there is a new buggy issue. If I have the app open for a while, but do not access it, when I go to type a title in the search bar, the keyboard pops up and instantly disappears. This is NOT the earlier issue we were all having after the IOS update. The only way to resolve this is to shut the app and open it again. More time wasted to make it run. I am using an iPad 2 with the latest IOS. If, after I buy the latest iPad Air 2, this problem persists, I’ll know it is not the app, and has nothing to do with having a “dated” unit. This is my 10th review. I will say again: Brilliant when it works, but when it doesn’t, it’s heartbreaking. So much time and effort and money invested in this, and yet, I am at the whim of the app deciding on whether it wants to work or not on any particular day.

Dont use it!

Lost all my music when I upgraded with an older iPad, even though Im using the supported iOS. Wish there was a way to roll back.

Be careful!

I bought this and I didnt know that you may not be able to print the music. The music shows up on my iPad but no way to print the music sheets. Also beware that you will not get any help from a live person. If you have a problem such I had (twice), no one will help you. Otherwise its ok. Im looking for another app / company then Ill switch and Ill quit using this.

Sign

This app will not let me sign in!! The sign in just keeps popping up, doesnt do anything but load and then pops up again. I tried uninstalling it then reinstalling it and I still get the same thing. Its really disappointing

Terrible update!!!

I just purchased new sheet music and with the updated app, I cannot access ANY of my music scores!!!!! Rating? NO STARS, JUST THE OPPOSITE!

THEY DISTRIBUTE EMAIL ADDRESSES

DO NOT MAKE A MUSIC NOTES ACCOUNT The day after I bought a song, I started getting over 20 spam emails in just one morning, and I hadnt entered my email address anywhere else recently. Plus, the extra features such as digital copy and transposition are NOT worth the extra money. Go somewhere else for sheet music.

Highly Recommend this App

Fortunately this update has worked well for me on the iPad air and the iPhone 6+. I am really enjoying that play function that lets me hear and play along to the music in the music player app. It helps a lot with rhythm and speed. It would be cool if this integrated the music player app into it so that the custom notes that we add to the music could be seen when we are playing along to the playback. It would be helpful if you could start the playback at different parts of the song that are difficult to learn instead of only from the beginning. It would also be nice if the speed of playback could be adjusted like it can in other apps. Other than that a very helpful app. ****Old review: I have really enjoyed this app. It is great to have my sheet music with me. I like how you can also mark up the music and make notes on it. It would really be helpful if they enabled it to play the sheet music audio on the iPad the way their website does on a desktop computer. It helps me to learn the song faster and better when I can hear how it is suppose to sound. My desktop computer is not in the same room as my piano so it is hard for me get help with the song that way. If the iPad app could play and pause the songs like the desktop computer it would help tremendously. Overall, I really like this app.

Awesome app!

This is an amazing piece of technology - and when used with Musicnotes player - you can listen to the songs you have synced - and for a piano player - this is extremely helpful to watch, listen - and it shows the keys in red as they are being played.

Crashed

I loved this app from the minute I downloaded it. Im a music teacher, so I buy and use sheet music a lot. All the music Id bought online over the last couple years through my account immediately synced, and I no longer had to carry around binders full of sheet music to all my students.. yay! However, 2 updates ago the app stopped working, wouldnt open at all, crashed every single time I clicked on it. I tried everything, including deleting and re-downloading the app.. no change. Then the last update made it openable again, so I was stoked! I brought everything back that Id backed up on the cloud, my whole list was there again. Yay? Nope. Now I can open the app and see my list, but none of the songs will open.. the entire app crashes every time I click on any sheet music. Guess its back to binders for me.. :( But at least I can always open those!

3.6.1 a bust

Worked great until this update last week. The fix came out now I can open app but crashes when I open any sheet music. Very disappointing and unreliable,

Doesnt Work on iOS 8

Apparently they dont care that the app crashes on startup on iOS 8.

Crashing problem solved

At first, the app crashed whenever I tried opening a piece of sheet music. I eventually figured out that I could fix this by turning off the "Air Turn Pedal" feature in Settings. Now that its actually working, its a good app!

Cant Open On iPad 2Air

The app wont open at all on my iPad 2 Air! Please fix!!

This app is a rip off!

Do not buy this! Unfortunately I ordered a song and my app keeps throwing me out when I try to access it. I contacted technical support and they basically gave me a few suggestions which did nothing to correct the problem. They said some other tech people would contact me, they havent. They should change the name of this app to: "wish I had music notes"

Ok.....

This will not let me log in. Im not really understanding the point of this app.

Almost Perfect

This is a great app for sheet music!! The only thing I would change would be to make the page number buttons at the bottom much larger (to easily get to codas, etc.) OR for it to somehow know which page is next when codas are present. You often have to switch back 2-3 pages and swiping quickly that many times in a row does not work well. Love the ability to import my own PDF files though. And Ive bought a ton of music from Music Notes and was happy to find the app "fully loaded" upon starting!

Rediculously Overpriced

The add-ons are insanely overpriced...there are barely any free features and you have to pay over $10.00 to add your own PDFs? No thank you. Ill download a more fluid app for free

I love this app!

What a great idea. I saw a performer reading music on his iPad and when I saw Musicnotes offer this app I was happy to try it. Among other things, it is helpful simply because the music is bright and easy to read when the lighting is dim. Page turning is easier than flipping actual sheets of paper.

Hands down the worst experience Ive had with an app

Confusing, exits unexpectedly, cant perform most basic tasks even after reading help.

Good on stage

This works for keeping the set going. It works smoothly with (or without) AirTurn. The authors are good at reacting when a new iOS version introduces a bug, and the library is easy to maintain.
