Ratings and reviews

I have been using this app for years and I absolutely love it so much, but y'all really need to fix the calibration glitches in the piano playing. the time that you tap the notes doesn't match up with when the note sounds not when the music indicates it should be played, and it's actually driving me insane. lately it's been randomly slowing down for a few seconds at a time and not registering when I tap the notes during that time because I tapped it "too early." im actually going insane. thanks.

Love this app, even have a family membership. BUT, the recent update is not optimal. I use practice hub a lot, and now my practice lessons have me guess on things I have yet to learn from my actual lessons. The new match challenge was great, until it also threw in words I have yet to learn, which isn't useful when you are learning an Asian based language from an English background. Lessons are for new, practice is what you have been taught. I feel like the last two weeks have been a waste.

free access is an absolute joke. God forbid you learn something new and mess it up. welp lost a heart. only get 5, which can go very quickly and suddenly one question from finishing a lesson and you lost all progress and have to wait until tomorrow to try again. I tried the sub trial and other than the ability to focus on learning and not on "not messing up" it's not worth it. pay for basically flashcards and extra review practice? literally bare minimum. price does not make sense.

What’s new

Thanks for updating! This version includes:
– Performance enhancements to support daily rituals
– Visual adjustments to improve clarity of the path
– Streak Society members now see more than before
– Removed the bones. The bones were a distraction. The bones are gone now.

As always, consistency is key.
Complete your lesson. Stay on the path. Do not look away.
