Gianni Chiarello		 Is there a way to share the Workspace file or settings once I've created it? Nice app!

Victor Iyebutemeh		 Hi, so I have an issue. When connected, Ableton recognises my device (Samsung Galaxy Core A3), however, on the app, it shows no device connected? Is there something I'm doing wrong, and how do I fix it please? Edit: I just updated the app, and I'm still having the same issue. At this point, I'm starting to think it's my devicešŸ«

Pearl Black		 Barely tells you how to set the app up and you have to do extensive research on your phone on how to get in to developer mode and then find where your phone has the usb midi setting at , 3 stars because I was expecting an easy plug and play for almost $4 instead I had to dive in to several chrome searches on my own to figure out how to get it to work because the tutorial video is basically false information and way too short without explaining really anything. Works great when you get there tho

Robert Thompson		 Good for beginners. Limited MIDI functionality. UI lacks polish. For example naming a button "mute 1" puts the words on one line but naming it "mute 2" puts it on 2 lines. Many small issues like this add up to a lack of polish and shows a lack of attention to detail. Also setting UI up in general is a very clumsy process. This type of app is all about UI. If it's lacking in that? Well...

Sean Finn		 Clean looking app, but unfortunately not enough control of the midi message customisation. Lacks the ability to chain messages, can not rearrange buttons, input is difficult having to us a picker wheel. Wanted to love it, but it just won't work for what I need.

Callum Hackett		 This had potential to be the best MIDI controller in the store but it seems it's not being actively developed. I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to buy a hardware controller and doesn't mind some limitations such as small text sizes on buttons, a limited colour palette and inability to rearrange buttons from the order of their creation. Apart from these issues, the app functions wonderfully for any MIDI CCs you care to set up.

Dr. Leo Kelso		 Works pretty alright for me, simple but real easy to connect to your music software program. I dunno, maybe having something like a 'Bluetooth connection option; that'd be pretty awesome. However this being said, still I rather enjoy using the app! Absolutely serves its purpose, for sure.

A Google user		 Pretty good design, intuitive. Midi setup very easy. But custom buttons can only send CC messages, it's missing the ability to create a button that sends a program change. Also the UI for picking from the 128 different CC message types is painful, should just be a dropdown but instead you have to hit forward/back a zillion times.

A Google user		 Pls add a feature, so u can change the size of each button or fader u add, because its a little bit tiny for my big hands, and i often touch aside, and it dont snaps in :) but great app, 5/5 deserved, just for transfering the idea!! Love you!

A Google user		 Pretty Good. But really lacks a lot of things. 1. Rotary Knobs - Circle knobs that can be midi mapped. 2. Adjustable Size on all mapped objects. Including adjustable keyboard etc. 3. Give us a lot of options for mapping like different knob options and where we can resize it or reposition it wherever or however we want.
