okay adaptation of the website on computer, but the mobile interface really limits your ability to edit. The lower ram of a phone makes the songs cut out frequently, and the lack of a download option on mobile really sucks. Edit: Nevermind I found the downlaod option, I guess it's okay.

they ruined mobile usage, it's so confusing now. whenever I'm trying to copy paste a part of my music on mobile, the double tap just adds a note and I have to manually go back and forth to put down what I had on it. edit:it places down a note whenever I tap on the screen and when I try to drag to multi select it changes the place of my note and it's super annoying. I would like if tapping on the bar lines to add a note was removed, other than that it's perfect

Hi Michael, Thank you for your feedback on the recent mobile changes. we've added a setting in the score so you can switch back to the previous interface. If you want to copy past I suggest you to press and hold your finger instead of double tapping. I've shared your feedback with the team so we can improve on next update !

very good for basic music composition and editing. the premium subscription is fairly priced and worth it, but not needed. Support is very fast and helpful, I had an issue and they had it fixed within 30 minutes. flat also has a pretty great community. PDF import is useful as well as musicxml. overall just a good music composition app.
