The concept for this app is "spot on" perfect. The execution is a little lacking. For instance, all the instruments sound like an appegiated piano with some small differences. e.g. Electric Guitar sounds nothing like an electric guitar. Change the settings for Chorus/Reverb have not discernable change. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S21. Maybe I need to download something. Everything just sounds the same.

This is exactly what I was looking for. An easy and intuitive way to try out weird and unconventional chord progressions without having to look each one up and learn to play one by one! Giving 5 stars because I've had a lot of fun and will get a lot of use out of this app for inspiration, as I begin writing my own album. A few times it froze (when I got to about 9 sections) and I was unable to save or export as midi, but that's literally the only issue I've encountered.

Wonderful tool for songwriting. My only quip is that while it is great to be able to save your ideas, on occasion, the arrangements one has set can end up being recalled incorrectly. For example, you build a song with 10 sections and each section is different, you save it but upon opening it again, the song will have the arrangement from one section applied to all 10 sections thus losing all the work you did. Basically what I am saying is that the recall factor can be unreliable at times.
