User Reviews

Doctor Compás is widely praised as a powerful, portable flamenco practice tool with a variety of compases, adjustable tempo, and multiple sound configurations. Reviewers say it helps learners feel the rhythm and palos, and many consider it essential and valuable for practice and performance. However, repeated complaints center on audio not playing or dropping, crashes and bugs, questions about price/value, and some UI/navigation difficulties along with compatibility issues on older devices. Support quality is also cited as a concern in a few reviews. Overall highly useful but needs fixes.

I’ve tried all of the flamenco apps, this one is the best one. Simplest UI, most exciting and rhythmic varied patterns, solid beat.

I paid $25 for this app inly to have it not work. It appears to be playing yet no sound comes out. It has nothing to do with my volume or the volume settings of the app as they are all turned up. Other apps sound fine on my phone. It's not my phone. To top it off, there's absolutely mo tech support for the app! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS APP! It's a scam!

There don’t seem to be clear instructions, and the music interrupted by constant pop ups.
