Metronome quality criticized for being choppy and not keeping accurate time.
Some sections of the app are confusing and contain typos or misspellings, reducing clarity.

2024-12-07	Aa*****	Really bad metronome. Choppy and doesn't keep time well.
Really bad metronome. Choppy and doesn't keep time well.
2024-11-22	An*****	An ok app. Needs work and not worth the $9.99 I paid. Some sections are confusing. A lot if misspelled words. Price came down a few hrs. later to $4.99. Developer ignored my asking to make a Price adjustment. This app has no trial period. I wouldn't have paid for it if it did. Beware of apps that don't give a trial period before purchase. You are buying site unseen and in this case they ignore a price adjustment. $4.99 may be a fair price if they continue to upgrade. $9.99 definitely a no go.

2024-09-24	mu*****	It's pretty good. For a cheap price you can learn all the basics to music and train your skills. The only downside to this app is you have to really be passionate about learning, because this involve a lot of reading and understanding, unlike most expensive learning course that are easier to comprehend. But overall, it's pretty useful for a one time payment deal

2024-07-31	Sh*****	I wasn't a music major, but I read std. notation, sight read fairly well, intervals: done, ear training, got it. But I don't have theory or chords at all. Starting guitar at 53 years old, I quickly ID'd my massive hole in knowledge that must be filled if I want to progress. Another program wanted $250/year! $5 makes me feel kinda criminal 🤷🏻

2024-07-14	Pa*****	Absolutely AMAZING app. Singlehandedly transformed my songwriting from bad to good. Thanks to this app, I have been able to figure out chords, scales and it's in general a very good app. My suggestion would be that there should be an option to change tuning, so the Chord Calculator can be used for other tunings and it'll be more helpful. Thanks for this app. Cheers!
