Ridiculous cost
Beware! This is one of those apps where if you “try before you buy” but then forget after your 3 day trial, get ready to pay an arm and a leg! $8/week?!?! Give me a break!!!
Ugh
That’s not what a grand piano sounds like. The game sucks!
Very hard to close the app
When I need to switch to a different app, it's almost impossible because there's no way to X out of the keyboard screen
A subscription???
I deleted and gotten this back multiple times whenever I want to identify a note. There has never been a subscription. Why does everything have a subscription on it these days? I’d rather you make a one time payment if you’re gonna sell your soul. How annoying
Live service format for an ancient instrument? Get bent
7.99 a month to use a piano? Are you out of your mind?
Absolutely terrible
First off the game sucks y’all gave me 2 stars when i deserved 3 like are out y’all’s mind y’all need to rethink y’all’s choices because I know for a fact that I am goated at the app or whatever you wanna call it and I hope corporate sees this thank bye.😒😠🤬🙄
They didn’t tell you how much it cost.
Currently, it’s eight dollars a week or $40 a year to use this app. But they didn’t tell you that beforehand. I wouldn’t have downloaded it had I known the actual price.
Dumb ads
I keep getting an ad that I can’t exit out of. The only way to clear them is by closing the app
Why do you show p-rn ads now???
Was honestly so good as a piano app but when the ads started to turn into p-rn ads I decided to delete. Disappointing
Watch out for charging
charged me 7.99/ week and I only realized now after it spent 100! Beware.
In their responses they say you have to authorize it to autorenew. Given how many people are giving reviews saying they didn’t realized they had authorized it, clearly they have some UI issues that are deceiving and confusing but have chosen not to fix them.

Stole my money
This app randomly started charging me a subscription fee unbeknownst to me after I had already had the app for at least a year free of charge. Weekly fees for months causing me to owe credit card interest because I didn’t know it was happening. Asked for a refund multiple times and apple rejected it. Totally scammed by this app
Come on! I just want to play piano
I love playing the piano and music but it said it was free and I can’t afford a big piano so why does it say that I need to pay 7.99 A WEEK when I can find a actual free piano app and maybe Im wrong and if I am Im sorry Im just saying that can you at least make it lower for people who love music and don’t have the money for it.
Very disappointing
It did not give you techniques it was just giving me it was just so disappointing. It did not help and my skills did not approve any better. It was just every time when I wanted to play something there just cost money. I might think this place is just money hungry and yes, it’s very money hungry it’s not fun. It’s not easy at all and it doesn’t like teach nothing. It’s just people who wants to get money out of the other I do not recommend this to no one else and and I hope this game gets better and stop being they are money hungry cause I mean, I guess it’s the point to get money but I’m trying to learn something but it seems like you don’t want me to learn anything but OK I hope you get better and I hope you make more money.
Worst game ever my dad won’t by me the 3 day trial 1 star
1 star
Beware of Bi-weekly automatic subscription
Thought it was free… Apparently it only was for three days, and then it turned into an automatic subscription I never intended to sign up for. Used the app once and then by the time I noticed, I was being charged in the sea of subscriptions I’m already part of I was 10 charges deep and $80 out-of-pocket. Tried to contest it but they wouldn’t do it. Total scam.
Deceptive subscription
This app has charged me double for two straight weeks , a total of $32 and I literally opened it one time and never signed up for anything. These people should be ashamed of themselves. Disgusting.
So funny
I lik th game
Diamond. Really.
I’m trying to make something cool BUT you need to buy the item to get access to the instrument that you want to play brother I’m broke. What do you expect? I need that instrument. 🥀🥀🥀
Delayed
It delayed when I played it. It glitched when I played it too. So annoying!
Bring back the old version
This app used to be amazing, but then they tried to make it modern, started using slang like “slay” and made my fav songs premium! Dont even get me started on the new scoring system. Bring back the old version!
Out of tune
I was trying to make a piece and the key sounded out of tune and I checked and just as I expected they were I would recommend not getting this also it has ai generated posters for songs
Just stop
I like that it is fun and there are tons of songs and stuff, but it really feels like you guys are trying too hard to get kids interested, all of the new “slang” and “brain rot” are kind of an “in the moment” thing, it just feels way to cringe when you guys try to utilize it, so just use actual words, none of the brain rot and slang.
.
Amazing app!
Piano sucks
I always try to play a song. I know how to play on the piano, but it never works on the iPad. Why don’t they just give up and sell real pianos whoever made this game is actually smart game for people who enjoy piano. I like this game a little, but not that much.
