User Reviews

Ella is praised as a free, ad-free, beginner-friendly sight-singing app with an effective practice loop, intuitive UI, and engaging, game-like features. Users highlight its ability to improve intonation, ear training, and reading, plus listening-back feedback. However, multiple reviews note frustrations with recent design changes (including lost leaderboard), onboarding guidance gaps, and sporadic bugs.

  • Clean, polished design and intuitive UI; high-quality content.

Cons

I’ve used it for 2 weeks. Excellent function and video.

Yes yes yes this app deserves 5+ stars! I’ve been so excited about this. It’s so challenging and so rewarding. I sing professionally, but I’ve never been a sight singer. This app, paired with in-person lessons, is helping me get better than I ever imagined I could!

What the title says! I came back to this app after it had a bunch of updates, and I’ve fallen in love with it once more. As long as it stays free, this review will stay up!
