Touch Notation App Reviews

I use the app to copy notes from paper. For learning and for then importing into Synthesia, for learning.

I like the quick entry and ease of editing. Much more intuitive than many apps. But the transposition logic is simply wrong. A change from C Major to c minor does not mean shifting all pitches up 3 semi-tones. The tonic is still C!

Great app for putting down musical ideas in standard notation

Have been using this app for on the go composing. Very useful once you get comfortable with the input methods. However this needs an update for the new iPad Pros (2018) so the app will display edge to edge. Also with the iPad Pros now supporting midi keyboards, note input via an external midi keyboard would be game changing.

I think this app had potential to be great. Simple tools and easy to use. The only problem is the developer hasn’t updated this. Wish I could’ve seen how successful this app would have been in the long run.

No Support for XML-Import.

Great for writing out your parts. App doesn’t collect your data, the price is reasonable and the learning curve isn’t that hard, especially if you’ve used other notation programs in the past. I still have to get the hang of key signatures and 1st/2nd endings, but I have high hopes, having recently left MS for an Apple iPad product.
