Let users organize scores with tags or folders
It's kind of lame to just give me a list of My Scores that gets longer and longer. I want tags, folders, or something that lets me organize my music!

turn OFF auto save!! (or make it smarter)
The auto save feature is a good idea, but in practice it is very troublesome. Many times I am working with a slow Internet connection and when it starts to save, I have to wait and wait... please allow offline working as well. This would speed up the autosave feature enormously (then maybe it wou... more
Status: startedWe've backed off on the auto save behavior quite a bit and made it less frequent. We are continuing to look into ways of making it unobtrusive.

Support grace notes, ornaments and tremolandi
Grace notes, ornaments, tremolandi, and so on are essential ingredients. Get these notations into the application, please!

Support arpeggiated chords
In sheet music, a zig-zag line next to a chord indicates arpeggiation, and means that the notes of the chord should be played in quick sequence rather than at once.

Fix "Ctrl+" Shortcuts
Ctrl+S, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+Z, Ctrl+Y don't work, at least on my Vista IE7 running Flash Player 10. I used those shortcuts eight times for this post alone, it is such a pain to "Edit/Paste" everything...

Allow sharing with specific users, not just everyone or nobody
I'd like to see is the ability to share a score with specific users, rather than having to choose between sharing with everyone or nobody.
Status: under reviewWe are adding more "community" features in general, so we think this is a suggestion worth considering.

Make an iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad App
Oh my gosh! I love Noteflight, but I think that there should be an iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad app. I really want it. It would be great! I could write music on my iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad. It doesn't have to be free, but PLEASE don't make it over $4.00. It should be free though. Also, make it so you can... more

make notes play as you click through them
I often use the left and right arrows in Sibelius to check I have the right pitches in a melody line. When you move to the next note it plays it, so you can easily preview the note without having to go back and hit the play button each time.

Wouldn't it be great if we could see exactly how many views our songs get?
Youtube and mygamebuilder has a views/plays count on the project. It would be great to have that same feature on this site.
Status: plannedWe think this is a good idea too.

Make scores fit correctly on A4 PDF/Printouts
I'd love to see my scores appear on the entire page of A4 PDFs and printouts, as opposed to the current top & left 70%. Something about the margins ain't right, and I can't tweak it.

Realistic instruments
NoteFlight is a fantastic project, and I fully support it. I notice that there are a lot of votes for exporting to MP3 formats. However, I argue that it will not really be worth exporting to an audio format if the sound of the instruments sound like MIDI from 20 years ago. Would it be possible to... more

Make fermata affect playback (assign playback value)
The fermata does not seem to affect the playback at all. It would be great if a value could be assigned to the fermata for each score (or even each instance) to facilitate playback lengthening of the note up to 2 times the written length.

Drumkit voice locations
You default locations on the staff for some of the kit's sounds are a bit odd. The sounds' locations need to be able to be edited. (i.e. an X for the notehead on the top of the first line needs to be able to be changed to a hi-hat sound.)
