Review summary

Practice Time! is celebrated for its simplicity, integrated metronome, recording features, and excellent tracking of practice time with statistics. Users like the color coding and absence of ads or subscriptions. However, common issues include the practice timer counting break time inaccurately, lack of retroactive session entry, limited library organization, no device sync capability, and occasional app crashes. Overall, the app effectively supports practice habits but could improve in session management and usability features.

Pros

User-friendly interface that is simple and easy to use
Includes useful practice tools like a metronome, timer, and recording capabilities within the app
Helps users track practice time effectively and provides insightful statistics and graphs
Color-coding features for pieces help organize practice sessions
Open source, free, with no ads or data collection, which users appreciate

Cons

Practice timer includes break time, leading to inaccurate practice time recording and requiring manual edits
No way to add practice sessions retroactively without the timer running
Library management is limited; users want sorting, folders/directories, and ability to rearrange items
No sync option between devices, which hinders users who use multiple devices
Crashes reported when accessing Goals section or statistics

2024-12-24	Lo*****	Pretty good. I like the Goals feature. The tallying of practice time seems to include breaks; I wish it didn't. Breaks at the end of the session should be discarded . Inactive goals show up in Statistics crowding the data.

It has also been great to be able to colour code pieces and to record from the app. I would love the opportunity to make notes about each piece you practice rather than just the overall session and would also like the opportunity to group songs together in folders as the colour helps but can look visually cluttered.

2024-10-10	Ay*****	It's my day one of using app and I'm in LOVE with this App! It's simple, no ads, no subscription thing, nothing. Simple and easy interface, simple metronome. You can track your practice time and get insights. Amazing!I've tried other apps too but this is the best man. If I sound like I'm obsessed with this app, I am. Thank you sooooo much for making this app! ❤️🙏🏽

2024-09-27	SR*****	Wonderful app! Best one I've found so far. It contains all of the features I needed (metronome, practice timer, option to record yourself, color-coded tabs for different music books, etc). There are a few things I could complain about, but overall, I'm highly satisfied. The best part? It gives me an incentive to practice each day (just so I can have the satisfaction of recording each session)!

2024-09-16	Ja*****	Love the app! The timer is great and easy to keep track of practice time, and I love how you can add pieces of music and select them when you start the timer to keep track of your time for each piece, and switch them mid session! One thing I would love to see is a way to sort the music in the libraries. I play for my school jazz band and orchestra as well as my church, along with my own music and different genres, so I'd love it if there was a way to make sorting all this music easy and seamless

2024-08-23	Vi*****	This is a really helpful app! I like that the metronome is included in the app along with recording capabilities. It would be even nicer to have the library show how much you've practiced each piece

2024-07-09	Ga*****	Straight on Point. Nice job. Could you please add a feature to play/pause, increase/decrease tempo directly from the lock screen? Along with that, one single click to pause both timer as well as the metronome sound. Thanks 😊.

2024-06-13	Ca*****	So I'm learning violin. I wanted to keep myself honest with practice, this app is free, has tracking and stats, a metronome. About the only reason I leave the app is to tune. It also has things you practice, you can customize them and break down how you practiced. Good job devs!

2024-02-10	To*****	👍Very useful and clever little app that fills a gap in the market. I hope it will soon be expanded with even more helpful features, like a countdown timer that alerts you when time is up, and a daily schedule, and have a visual for the metronome. And I'd like to be able to sort the library, and it would be good to have directories in the library. Thank you. 🙂

2024-01-27	Ja*****	I really like this app, I found it extremely useful to track my practice time and the statistics and graphs are also a great feature, I have recommended it to some friends, and they have also had pretty positive experiences, but if I had anything to ask for it would be for more colors for the library, 10 is ok, but I've found it a bit limiting, I would love some more options, thank you.
