Cadence Trainer Feedback
Dear ABRSM,
Thank you for the grade 8 aural app, however on Cadence Trainer it would be more helpful if, after the key-chord and cadence have been played, one can press the chord symbols in the white squares to hear them and help their brains memorise the sound of it.
Also, a few lines of text at the top are overlapped so I cannot read it (this is also in cadence trainer). I am using an iPhone 13 Pro and the black bit blocks the text.
Thank you

Brilliant app but not the most reliable
As a recent (and successful) ABRSM grade 8 student, I used this app for a few months on and off to help me improve my approach to aural tests. It helped massively and allowed me to understand the full structure of the aural tests. Reliability is a bit on the downside though. Across the 4 sections, there turns out to be only a certain number of extracts to alternate between because it keeps repeating some (such as interrupted cadences and in the singing sections which doesn’t really help). The app is great but don’t fully rely on it.

Useless
Doesn’t work with headphones, despite asking me to use headphones. Immediately got a refund.
Mediocre
Helpful to have something to practise with but I find it frustrating when I get part way through feedback then click on the wrong button and can’t get back to see the rest of my feedback for a particular exercise
Buggy
I have a newish phone and newish earbuds. This is the only app I have that ignores the earbuds and plays through the phone’s speaker. This was reported by another reviewer two years ago. Clearly ABRSM don’t care.
