Ratings and reviews

This app is the best! It has been a great motivator for me to get up and practice. It has also helped with my performance anxiety. When people join, I notice that my playing tends to get slightly worse due to the feeling of being watched. However, the encouraging messages I receive, like "This sounds beautiful" and "You are doing great," really help to dispel my negative self-criticism. The app is fantastic for overcoming that fear and putting yourself out there.

Overall this app is great. Gamified practicing is a great motivator. Can sometimes be glitchy though. Things I would like to see in the future: 1. Dark mode for the entire app (not just for studios). 2. View practice history in graph form. As of right now the bar graph only allows you to see the current week, with history further back viewed as a list. 3. Ability to remove viewers from studio. There have been instances of bad eggs causing trouble with no way to kick them.

cool app! I appreciate it's simplicity. I think it could be improved with the ability to send messages to people and with more instruments. i'd personally love a banjo option!! I realize Tonic is always adding instruments, but it'd be great if you guys added an option to select "other" and write what the instrument is. the closest option is "general" which doesn't quite fit.
