Magic Piano: game by Smule for Android

Like the title says: Don’t waste your time. I originally downloaded this game when I was far younger and had a blast playing songs like Counting Stars and Am I Wrong but eventually stopped playing as I picked up pc and console games. I downloaded the game again after seeing an ad wanting to relieve my wonderful experience with the app. However, I was very disappointed to see how greedy, conniving, and money hungry Smule has become. They do everything they possibly can to try to get you to spend money for their “VIP pass.” So many songs I played for free are now locked behind a paywall. They give you 8 free songs to choose from and randomly cycle some out to make the ones that were there difficult to find. Free songs will suddenly not be free anymore only to be free again a couple minutes later. They bait you with a seven day free trial for the VIP pass which unlocks most of the songs the app offers but then they’ll charge you TEN DOLLARS A WEEK! Absolutely ridiculous. It’s a borderline scam and definitely highway robbery. Why even bother paying for this game when you can listen to the original tracks on YouTube for free or pay ONE DOLLAR for Spotify premium every month? Just listen to the music without clicking on the screen. Better yet, I’m sure getting actual piano lessons would give you more bang for your buck than this dumpster fire. If you’re going to charge people to play songs that aren’t even yours to begin with, at least make the prices reasonable. Years ago this was a good app but greed has completely besmirched that reputation by making the game virtually unplayable after you do so for an hour or two. Unless you can’t see this company’s a swindler or somehow have so much money you don’t care, and given the current state of the economy, I doubt you do.

I think this game is great. My kids love it, and I like playing it as well during small free times I get. However, the adds can be a bit much. That’s all I have to say. It is very cool to be able to play the piano without playing the piano, so if you don’t mind tons of adds, I recommend it.

I’ve had this game for years and I’ve never had this problem, my niece tried to open the app and it glitched out and kicked her out of the game. I have the same problem with geometry dash subzero but I’ve never had this problem with this game. Please fix it

I’ve had this game for a very long time and it’s just been very fun to play!! I have no problems whatsoever. This is such an amazing game and I love playing every second of it.....bye :)

Feels like most of the songs are vip or require smoola which needs a subscription or a lot of videos for one song.
