Love flat! I've been using it for so long now, and it's great! However, there are some things I wish were features in the app: - a tempo (following rit. and accel. so that the playback goes back to the original tempo) - cadenza options - ways to connect both piano lines (in particular, I tried to do a glissando from the treble clef line to the bass line, and I couldn't)

I love this app 👍, but it's sooo laggy, there's no non-premium pitched percussion, and I tried to set up an account and all it did was lock me out and I couldn't access my scores. The app is good, but it really really needs fewer premium items. PLEASE 🙏 EDIT: So, what I wrote before is important, but after a little looking around, Flat is one of your best options. It's easy to learn on, gives you 15 free scores, and is overall just better. I recommend flat FOR SURE!!! 👏👏👏

I spent a full day arranging a score on flat mobile, only for me to check again tonight and all progress is gone. This has not been my first problem with this app. Stop locking essential features like score formatting and nearly every freaking percussion instrument behind a paywall. Stop pretending to be easy to use despite making composition a slow and grueling process. I would rather buy Finale than waste one more second on this useless program. All would-be customers, just use musescore.
