Download failed to complete
I used to love this app. Lot’s of great music available in the Scorch Store. Unfortunately I can no longer download purchases. Stuck in an endless loop of “Download failed to complete. You successfully paid for this score but it was not downloaded. Please try again.” Also cannot find any way to contact support.
Perfect sheet reader of sibelius
Its perfect , But it works best if it is a sheet reader of you , I notate on pc and then this app is a cool sheet reader that opens sib. Files easily, but I like to see two things in future updates ,first , annotate is so needed in this app , if want to draw or highlight some notes you can’t. Second, this cool app needs feature to make folder of your sheets, some times it will be hard to find something you need! Hope this things I mentioned add on next update. Thanks for @Avid to help I do my work faster and easier! Hope you Music lovers , love this app too. Tnx :)
You are KIDDING are
This app is nothing more than a web link to their store. Avid, please. I’m a pro user of Sibelius, and this is all you can offer for my iPad? I don’t ask for this app to be Forescore..I already have that and it’s brilliant. I wanted a simple READ ONLY interface for my (icloud/files based) .SIB scores. This was like taking two dollar bills, rolling them up, and lighting them on fire.
Worst app ever
It doesn’t do anything - including read Sibelius scores - looking for a refund
Doesn’t work
Can’t import Sibelius files. Don’t waste your time or 2 bucks. Disappointed but not surprised.
Seems to work fine.
I had to use the ‘export for Scorch’ in Sibelius, and now it imports into Scorch just fine. Very happy with it.
