Great for newbies
I have no previous education in music and am learning djembe at age 56, so it’s not easy! This app allows me to get hear the different rhythms while I practice my part, or just listen to one rhythm to help me get it right.
Hands down the best djembe app!
I’ve been a professional percussionist, drum maker, and educator for almost 20 years, and this is far and away the best and most authentic and easy to use djembe education tool out there. The only app I’ve seen with so many legitimate and well researched West African rhythms, straight from the hands and heart of Mamady Kieta! Bravo in every way!

Truly the Best!
This app is by far the best I’ve seen, well organized and packed with content. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Pura Vida
Adore this app
So intuitive. Immediately started navigating, isolating parts, adjusting volumes, speeding up, slowing down and playing along. I’m fairly new to African drumming and this app is invaluable.
Brilliant app!
This is an absolutely brilliant app! The best drumming/percussion app I've seen so far! Easy to navigate, understand and use! You can learn at your own pace and choose to challenge yourself, at your own pace. The help and tech support is incredibly generous too. A truly excellent app that can make you a good drummer! Very highly recommended!

Stuck with only a few rhythms
Awesome idea but almost all the rhythms are locked, it prompts me to purchase packs for $0 but when I click Yes nothing happens. Bit of a disappointment.
Response from developer
there was an issue with an iOS update which caused this problem. i believe we addressed it in the last update. could you please change your review?
Export audio to other apps.
I wish this app was able to export its audio to various daws (ie cubasis or auria) via AudioShare, AudioCopy, or Inter-App Audio.
Response from developer
there are plenty of sampling engines out there that will do just that. (try Kontakt by Native Instruments) djembeföla! was built as a learning tool, and took countless hours (years) to build. it wasn't created so you could use its proprietary content for your own projects. bad reviews hurt - please change your rating

This app is the best djembe study tool EVER!! When I started with djembe there was noting even close to being so informative, versatile and vetted by a Grand Master of djembe, Mamady Keita!
Allow family sharing of in app purchases please
My only complaint is not being able to share my in app purchases with my kid. If you would allow that, I’d rate this app 5 stars.
Best practice app.
An amazing app! There's nothing else like it and so many traditional rhythms to choose from.
