Whether you want to capture the fleeting inspiration of a musical epiphany, refine your next brilliant symphony, or just create a sweet MIDI ringtone version of that new hit song, Musical Note Pad offers an intuitive and interactive solution any time, any where.Known Issues:

Nearly blank screen, tapping around starts adding upper case Q and i's all over the place. The treble clef is represented with &, and the base clef is a ?Q. Bar lines look like ¡ I'm very confused, I think this app is just super broken...
horrible app interface and crashed first use trying to remove a tie automatically placed which, coincidentally, doesn't appear to be in the menu. uninstall
The app doesn't work. Notes don't show up on the staff q's and other nonsensical things do. It makes zero sense!
Impossible to use Gui is horrendous. the notes are "q"s for some reason. I just was trying to change the time signature and couldn't. Horrible app
good attempt, not quite what it could be. I can't find the menu and rather than waste time, I'll find a better app
this is a joke.. just produces q and Q.. menu options not easily accessible. deleted within a minute after installing.
Horrible. Deleted the minute after downloading. Interface is horrendous.
The interface is horrible. I couldn't even write a note. All I got was "Q's".
Really good graphics and sounds
Just came up with random symbols- terrible!
This app is a joke. I cant believe someone would release an app like this, no QA?
Unfortunately the app is broken
I found letters at the sheet music.
Very bad really
Good for creating/composing, but most of the time when I try to zoom out on the staff, it kicks me out of the app. SUGGESTION: read tutorial before composing. If you do not, you will be completely lost while writing the song. It is slightly complicated 'manuvering'the whole thing but, if it would stop kicking me out and be less touchy, 5 ⭐
If they can iron out the glitches this could be a great little program. The most irritating one for me is that it doesn't save properly. It makes half the notes flat, so you have to go through your whole piece and change them back.
Very very hard to use. Just tried to note one of my own compositions. Wanted to add a second note to a chord, but it adds a rest instead. You have to double tap, change it to a note then longtap. Then drag to its proper place. Thats 5 steps instead of 1. My suggestion is to only add rests or notes when you tap the next empty area. When you tap around a note it should add another note in the same spot. Some buttons to change a note's position would be cool too. And play the note every time you put it down.
I am using GT-P1000 with the gingerbread firmware of 2.3.3. Unfortunately, some of the notes from Bass section has changed from Dotted into Natural. Hence, we are not able to manually insert any ties and slurs within the sheet, no Tuplet as well and impossible to insert any accidentals in chord. Do hope to see Breaks, Key signatures, Metronome mark, Note relationships, Dynamics, Articulation marks, Ornaments, Octave signs, Repetition and codas in the next update or future.
When it is working, it is great as long as I am careful to choose what I really want to compose; a little bit dificult as a user-friendly app. Right now, it keeps crashing. Please fix in a hurry. Can you make it so one can layer more than 1 sound with another in the composition. I'm keeping it for now.
This app crashes so much. I like it except for that and the fact that it doesn't save. It keeps making several notes sharp or natural. Very annoying.
Yea wut this person said i think they should put ties and slurs in this app plz fix it
Can't change staves, no slurs or ties. Just missing too many basic features to be of any use other than as a toy. And it crashed 3 times in the first 5 minutes. Deleting.
I installed it and it kept kicking me out each time I opened it. You decide what I think about it - fill in the expletives.
I`m very happy with this program.It`s posible to save it as a midi file, and capture with my professional programs for finishing a perfect music score
Wasnt expecting this app to be so thorough but you guys did a great job. Id recommend it.
The note entry is awkward. But the random adfition of accidental sharps and naturals was too annoying..
This is useful as an app in concept, but when I save files it automatically changes notes which should be flat (the key is A flat) to all be natural. Extremely irritating and renders the app useless for my purposes
Whenever I tried to use the app, it just randomly crashes, no message, just crashes, and I don't care if you fix it.
Really needs the feature to be able put in working ties and slurs between notes anywhere, if they are added then I think it would be five stars worthy Otherwise so far seems good :)
Yeesh. Maybe it's no longer compatible with newer Android versions? When I tried it on my Samsung phone, I didn't even get notes, just text characters. Seems like its music font doesn't work.
