Sheet Music Direct

Wondering if anyone at the company uses this on iPad. Music library is great but it has a few very frustrating bugs. One example: if you pull up a song in a set list and go into the settings to change the key (transposition), then you can’t use the X in the top left to close the sheet music. Doing that results in a blank white screen (closes the music, but you’re stuck in the screen and can’t go back to the set list, etc). I found a way around that which doesn’t involve closing and reopening the app. You have to use the set list quick menu dropdown in the top right corner and select a different song. It will then change songs, and you can close out the music and go back to the set list. It’s stupid and annoying, but I keep hoping they’ll fix it with each update. till waiting. Great app overall though.

I do like this app. The music selection is good and the prices are reasonable. But I really don’t like the interface. For instance it doesn’t remember my search history so I have to retype the entire search string/phrase every time I want to find a song. And when I favorite a song, the sample page is saved to my wish list. Cool, but there is no way to get back to the purchase page from my wish list; I have to go back to search and start all over, again typing the entire search string, and then dig to find the one I favorited. I have not purchased more than once because I found the process so annoying that I gave up. And about support. I want to request support for something like this rather than write a review, but it requires an email session and since I don’t have email on my iPad I can’t request support. That’s also annoying because I’m already logged in, they should know something about my account, so let me contact support from my account.

I’m a guitar player expanding my skill set by learning the piano. I used Yousician to get a basic knowledge of piano nomenclature then turned to this. As a novice. i find it helpful to find several versions from simple to complex of many songs. Also. The few songs I’ve searched for I was able to find at least some version. The play the song feature helps. (If you’re thinking it would make a good backing track. No. But for an idea of how the song should sound. It’s good) I bought the pro (whatever they call it) version. Already favorited enough songs to make it worth it.
