Did not read the score accurately. I’d like my money back.
Please, for the love of god learn your thing recognize the drum notes. I paid for this to extract the drum part while being on a tight deadline (the sibelius project file was lost forever) and it feels like I wasted my money..

This has just saved me an ungodly amount of time! Seems to produce very few errors when working from nice clean pdf files. I've only picked up one error in 5 pages so far! These were scored for piano and flute, with the flute parts being for beginners and the piano at around intermediate level, so not super complex but also not the simplest thing I could give it. This will save me a tonne of time transposing parts for different instruments, and I'm interested to see how well it handles more complex scores too.
Understandably a couple of errors when I fed it a photo of a 1-page piano score (beginner music, nothing complex!) in jpg format, but still did a good job on that overall, and still heaps quicker to fix those errors than it would have been to manually notate it myself. It didn't pick up anything at all from a photo in png format even though it was similar quality (to human eyes) to the jpg, but that's not an issue for me.
Gute App. Wie oft kommen Updates?
I’ve been using this sheat music scanner app for a few week now and I’m realy impressed! It scans the pages fast and accuretly, even when the lighting isn't perfet. Would be great if it would detect text as welltho

Funcionó unas pocas veces y luego ya no hay manera de usarlo, se niega a abrirse. He probado todo e parece ser un error común sin aparente solución. Pagas para algo que no puedes usar.
Every time I try opening the app, it tells me that it needs to verify via MuseHub. I contacted support and they said I should uninstall and reinstall musehub, which I did a few times and nothing worked. I’m hoping an update soon fixes this.
