Community Insight:
Every time we play a track the app crashed:|.
Wonderful app, helped us tune our new Santoor to a proper tuning. Was confused at first from no sound as well but turned out to just be our mute switch needed flipped.
Please update this version for ios13 because not runing app in iphone 11 pro Thanks.
We have had no issues with installing this app, or using it, other than our own fingers. We DO WISH it could be opened inside GarageBand or have a MIDI connect for easier playing; otherwise this would have been a 5-star review! Good Job.
It is a good app but minor fix needed. When u play we think the strings that are involved should be highlighted.
Please remove this hand simulator or fix it.
It doesnt open anymore. Please fix.
After the update it quickly crashes and quits out of the app ! We redownload it but still no luck , pls fix this problem . Thank you.
The app will open and close automatically. Needs an update.
It jumps out on ios 13.1.3 we've also paid last time but pro features were not available still.
Graphics are pretty and the staff notes appear, but no sounds is emitted. We cant spend money on the paid version when the free version doesnt work. Since it has been 1 year since the sop has works, Apple should consider removing this app from the App Store. It works somewhat on our iPhone 8 Plus.
The application doesn't open up!! It force closes.
Just downloaded this app and there's no sound on our IPad Pro!!! Please fix!! Really want this to work.
It does not open. Apparently,the developer is not maintaining it. So we do afraid to purchase the pro version and have the same problem.
Great detail was put into making this app a beautiful recreation of the Persian Santoor.
Good app not relleh….. This is low in eggs were is the art of egg.
Certainly a nice effort and beautiful sounds. One problem… We can't control output volume. No control in app and iPad volume control does not have any effect. We have chosen to run the sound through DAW to control it.
We wonder why there's no sound with this? They invite us to get the full app, but we don't know if they'll be any sound with it? We're a big believer in making things simple, this is causing confusion. We guess we'll erase.
We can't hear this app. Help us? ;-;.
Powerful and realistic sounds, in an authentic persian classical tuning. And Sound quality has to be heard to be believed.
Thats a fantanstic app we love it Wish u the best.
A great choose to make an app . It shows we are well civilized people which our history is longer than 8 thousand years .. We are persians and thats it . Good job dude.
It's very greater than santoor HD.
Amazingly realistic!! Terrific app. Bravo.
