StaffPad was created from the point of view of a composer who wanted an input device that was as fast as a pencil, and, I have to say, they have done an admirable job achieving that goal. Sure, it doesn't have all the features of Sibelius, but the truth is that I don't need all those features.

I'm familiar with StaffPad. I need the features of Sibelius or Dorico, so while the ability to use a pen is good if you have such a device (I've got a few lol), it isn't better than the big boys because I use quite a few of those features and they greatly outweigh the pen input. After all these years I'm pretty efficient with keyboard shortcuts. To each his or her own.
