Review summary

Users praise MuseScore for its large sheet music catalog and usefulness for learners, especially with limited resources. However, multiple reviews center on aggressive monetization, paywalls, intrusive ads, confusing charges, and weak customer support, with some reports of login or device compatibility problems. Overall, the app is valued for content but criticized for pricing and reliability.

Pros

Large catalog of sheet music and notes available for learning.
Helpful resource for learners, especially those with limited resources, to access scores.
Useful for discovering pieces to learn outside of school and to grow as a musician.
Overall positive utility noted by several users.

Cons

Subscription-heavy pricing with unclear costs and recurring charges.
Most content is behind paywalls or gated by subscriptions.
Intrusive ads and upsell prompts throughout the app.
Billing issues and refund difficulties, including unexpected charges and cancellation problems.
Poor customer support and some cross-device login/compatibility issues.

2026-07-31	Re*****	I downloaded this app and went through all of the initial questions twice and it keeps freezing on the last page. Silly and annoying. I'll just keep downloading what I can find online.

2026-07-31	Ge*****	After subscribing to Pro+ on the website and installing from the store, you are bombarded with ads for add-ons without any easy way to get to quickly get to the actual app. "Continue" buttons that are just "confirm purchase" buttons. The "click the pinata" button that prevents you from clicking the exit icon (which only appears after a few seconds) is particularly offensive. I just paid you 40 bucks, stop shoving a donation jar in my face

2026-07-31	Pa*****	o conteúdo do aplicativo é bom, mas a utilização é horrível! cheio de bug, se vc usa o aplicativo por mais de cinco minutos as partituras não carregam. Ele fica bugando e volta pra tela original, pra quem precisa pegar várias partituras de uma vez você simplesmente não consegue. Sendo um app pago teria que ter uma estrutura melhor.

2026-07-30	Jo*****	I was trying to sign up for pro+ and they double charged me and signed me up for both learn and pro+. I can't get the app to sort properly or show just drum tabs. I found one on their website and when I hit "open in app", or download the file and open in the app, it's not the same. I'm in discussion with google for a cancel and refund now. I wouldn't recommend. Update- after communication with the company over approximately a week, the secondary charge was canceled and refunded, with no issue

2026-07-30	Ja*****	Be careful, this company is very shady with their billing. I purchased something from the app and I was just billed for a pro subscription I never knowingly signed up for. Read very carefully if you deal with them.

2026-07-30	An*****	My teenage son bought a $3 piece of sheet music, and they tricked him into a $20/month subscription, which we didn't catch for more than a year, costing us $250 bucks. Filling out the refund form and talking to their chatbot only leads to silence. DO NOT RECOMMEND UPDATE: Musesore replied to my review with an email address. I emailed them and have heard nothing. I will update if they do respond, but it looks like all their replies to bad reviews are just a bluff.
