Bluetooth

A ideia do app é muito boa, porém desde que baixei estou com problemas durante a aula, o app desconecta do Bluetooth e não volta mais. Além de quando está marcado que é pra iniciar com a esquerda mas ele fala direita e também o botão que indica som ligado e desligado, funciona invertido.

No feedback, AI generated app, better watch youtube lessons.

Comparing to Simple piano 2Y experience, this app feels like a fraud. No feedback, app not listening. Full-screen not fixed. Songs just a piece of video clip, notes sheets not aligned to song, barely meets. Totally overpriced.

Hi **Art-m-music**, we are really sorry to hear about your frustrating experience. It definitely shouldn't feel this way. We invest a lot into creating genuine, high-quality educational content for drummers, and we want everything to work perfectly for your practice sessions. The sheet music alignment issues, full-screen bug, and the app not listening/providing feedback are certainly not the standard we aim for, and we want to get these technical issues sorted out. Please email us at support@upbeat.studio so we can investigate these bugs right away. Since you also mentioned the value didn't match the price for you, let us know in your email and we'll do our best to help make this right. We hope to hear from you so we can turn this around! 🥁

Bien dans l’ensemble

Bonne app dans l’ensemble. J’aime bien l’ergonomie et les exercices donnés l’app est bien pensée.
Par contre l’abonnement est cher pour ce que l’app offre.
Je ne sais pas si je vais poursuivre l’abonnement.

Excellent app

The app is excellent. The lessons are interesting. The AI planning doesn't work. But that doesn't matter; the practical lesson generation is fantastic.

Amazing app with only one little problem

This app is a great way for beginner drummer like myself to learn to play but their is just one little issue that I have come across. This app uses a plan of several weeks to get better and it doesn’t show how many days you have played which makes it easy to lose track of how many days you’ve played if you play more than once a day.

Hey Skechmaster95! Thanks so much for the awesome review — we're really glad Drum Coach is helping you learn! 🥁🙌 That’s a great point about tracking practice days, especially if you play more than once a day. We’ll definitely look into adding a clearer way to see your progress and how many days you’ve practiced. If you have any more ideas or feedback, feel free to shoot us a message at support@upbeat.studio — we’re always listening! Keep on drumming! 🔥🥁

I was really excited about this app but...

This app is pretty great, there just needs to be a way to rewind a lesson without restarting the entire lesson. This would enable someone to figure any tricky portions without taking the time of starting the lesson over from the top. Once you have the tricky bit smoothed out then you can get the proper reps in with the correct technique

Thanks for the feedback, Jonoats! 🎉 You are right, you can now jump back into any finished lesson from History and replay it from the top. We are also working on letting you replay individual exercises inside each lesson—coming soon! Stay tuned for updates, and feel free to share more suggestions anytime at support@upbeat.studio. Keep grooving! 🥁

Amazing app

An amazing app to learn and practice drums, just what I was looking for.

Can’t contact anyone

IT IS MOST DEFINITELY NOT FREE!!!!!! You have to subscribe then they charge you more than advertised on the first week. You do not get your money back if they charge you. I’m stuck with this stupid plan that I’m going to probably delete soon because it’s super basic and not engaging at all. You can look up YouTube videos for free but that’s really all you get with this class. I almost wanted to stop drumming all together because of this app. It’s just a video with only practices that are extremely boring and not like all the other cool apps. I didn’t know it was going to charge me that much and I was just shy of getting my pets meds because of this app. I absolutely suggest finding any other app not this one

Seems great so far but…

I am a brand new drummer. Just got my electric kit and getting some one on one drum lessons, but need to practice at home. Was hoping this could eventually be my music drumming teacher. I put together a AI plan and as you go through the workflow on question 4 or 5. (I think) the button to go to the next page in the workflow is unselectable as the button image is barely showing at the bottom of my iOS. I am hoping maybe my Fire tablet will have a UI without this bug.

If you are noticing that there are not a lot of people signing up for drum plans this is why. Please fix this bug so I can set up my custom practice plan.

Thank you so much

Thanks so much for your detailed feedback and for reporting the issue! 🙏 We're looking into the UI bug right now to make sure you can complete your drum plan smoothly. In the meantime, if you encounter anything else or want to share more details, feel free to reach out to us at support@upbeat.studio. Happy drumming! 🥁💪

Frustrating display

Overall the app seems good but the exercises are frustrating as the next line of music is hidden until you have to start playing it Só you have no time to anticipate what to play. That makes it impossible to keep up unless you greatly reduce the tempo. It would work better if you could see 2 rows at a time.

Response from developer

Thanks for your honest feedback, Funky Pip! We totally get how not seeing the next line can be frustrating — that anticipation is key when drumming. We're always looking for ways to improve the experience, and your suggestion to view two rows at once is super helpful. We’ll definitely pass this on to the team. Meanwhile, feel free to reach out to us at support@upbeat.studio — we’d love to hear more about how we can make Drum Coach better for you. Keep the beat!

Thanks for the 4 stars! We're really glad you're learning with Drum Coach. 🎵 You're right — currently, the app doesn’t "listen" to you play, but that’s a great suggestion. We’re always working to improve, and feedback like yours helps a lot! Got more ideas or thoughts? Write us at support@upbeat.studio. Keep the beat!

bluetooth disconnecting after record session

it’s a good app , help me a lot but every time it record my session the bluetooth won’t work even if it says connect. So it run on the i pad speaker instead of my amplifier.
