I can't begin to describe how amazing this is at immersing your players and even yourself in the environment of your world! It can also be peaceful to sleep to! The "one-shot" sound effects are the cherry on top, too. The free access material is also plenty for basic ambiance, though it'd be nice to have just one desert scene for free. I've tried other similar apps, but none of them are as perfect a combination of visually appealing AND easy to understand yet expansive UI design as well as free

This app is PHENOMENAL. I cannot recommend it enough. You can transition between locations, ramp up the intensity, switch to and from combat music seamlessly, and even toggle off the music and leave on just sound effects. The app isn't recognized as a media player, so pausing using a lock screen, speaker, headphones, or car screen isn't possible currently (likely due to the separate audio levels). I would selfishly like a next song button for the tavern, too ❤️ I need more Cursed Banshee time

Hey Emily, thanks so much for your glowing review! We're so pleased to hear your thoughts. We are looking into both of your points of feedback you mentioned - integrating Pocket Bard into the media player and adding additional controls in the Tavern location. Please let us know if you have any other suggestions: support@pocketbard.app - ty again!

Absolutely amazing app. Being able to add in ambience to music really helps keep attention on what you're doing and not the music. I do want a pay once option for scene packs. The biggest issue I have is incompatibility with the media player card in the drop down shade. When the app is playing in the background, I can't access play/pause from the notification shade so I have to open the app. Also features like auto pause when you disconnect headphones don't work. On Pixel 7a & updated software

Hey Trevor, thanks so much for sending us this feedback! This is great for us to hear - the features you laid out (media control outside of the app, play pause from notification shade, etc.) are all concepts that our team is currently looking into! Thanks for letting us know how you'd benefit from these improvements!
