Ratings and reviews

The challenge section is ridiculous. I followed along with the metronome and played each note on beat, but it gave me a score of 0.9, now I can understand if my intonation was off a bit, but I played each note correctly and in time. I then tried to go slower than the beat and tried faster, the best score I was able to get was 2.2 (out of 100 I presume). I've been playing for 26 years and while I'm not great, I know I'm not nearly that bad.

App is pretty good when it works and has helped me improve and play more often. Frustrating because it crashes randomly multiple times every time I try to play. My phone isn't brand new but it is a flagship model from a couple years ago. Make a desktop app if it requires such high specs that most phones can't play it. Compared with other educational apps, they are stingy with free content and the annual subscription fee is insane

The concept is good, but the app itself isn't. I think that having a "premium" option is fine, but with only a total of 4 free songs to play, it is basically telling you to buy the "premium" version. Also, it seems to only pick notes that have been play perfectly in "perform" mode to accept them as correct (even when played correctly), while letting you off the hook occasionally in "practice" mode. I wouldn't recommend this app.
