As mentioned in the onboarding tutorial, I am a primarily a drummer and this is my first game to help students learn the basics. I would appreciate the opportunity to know why you rated DrumStudent with 1 star? If there were any issues I’d be happy to try to track down the problem, but your review doesn’t give me anything to go on. If you can take a minute to email me with any issues you’re having, I’d be happy to resolve them. Please reach me at hello@drum-student.com ### 3/5 — Glitches *2021-12-27* Fun and easy beats but lots of glitches. **Developer response:** Thanks so much for taking the time to review DrumStudent. I’m so glad you’re finding it fun, but I’m sorry to hear about the glitches you’re experiencing! I’m a drummer who learned to code to create DrumStudent, and I’m committed to making it the best it can be. If you have a chance, could you email me directly at hello@drum-student.com? I’d love to know more about the device/iOS version and any other specifics that might help narrow down the issue and help me resolve it for you. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Left hand mode *2024-11-09* Hi I like it so far but do you have a left hand mode that would switch the order of it so I start with my left hand instead? ### 5/5 — Best drum app ever! *2022-12-28* So helpful with my real life skills! **Developer response:** Thanks for the review Cooldog301! It’s great to hear this has helped you, it’s been a labor of love. Positive feedback like this is what makes it feel worth it! If you have any thoughts on improvements or features you’d like to see please email me at hello@drum-student.com. Thank you again for taking the time to review DrumStudent! ### 5/5 — Fun and helpful game for experienced drummer! *2021-02-16* As a drummer who knows how to read music and has experience playing, I found this game helpful with paying closer attention to my precision with timing. This app lets you know if you’re early or late with each individual stroke, which has helped me understand when I tend to play ahead or behind. This has especially come in useful when I record myself playing my actual drums. Also, the different combinations of rights and lefts remind me of sticking patterns I could use more when playing. I would especially recommend this app for beginner drummers as it not only guides you with how to play certain rhythms, but it also teaches you how to read those rhythms using actual musical notations. **Developer response:** Thank you for such a thoughtful and thorough review! I’m so happy to see that you’re getting a lot out of it. My goal is to provide a fun way for anyone to learn to play and it is nice to hear that it seems that’s happening here. All the best and happy drumming! ### 5/5 — Innovative way to learn music *2021-01-31* This is a really cool app that not only teaches you basic rhythm and drum skills, but also the fundamental music theory that supports further learning of music even outside a percussion setting. It’s a decent accompaniment to a beginning music student’s normal music instruction and is great to work with in between lessons. **Developer response:** Thanks so much for the thoughtful review! I’m so glad you find it a useful tool for learning music. My goal is for it to be a fun-to-play game that engages users, and also a valuable educational resource for anyone looking to learn. I’ve been getting some useful feedback from early users, and implementing improvements in each update. Please feel free to send any feedback on how to meet your needs to hello@drum-student.com. Thank you again and happy drumming! ### 5/5 — Great Game! *2021-01-09* This game is fantastic for drummers and musicians alike. I’m using it to touch up on my counting. My only concern is the game sometimes has a few bugs - it freezes on the lighting bolt when I try and redo a level and also, when I start a new level the sound stops working. Love the concept of the game and happy I don’t have to pay a monthly subscription! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the feedback! I’m so glad you’re finding it useful to help with counting rhythms! The bug where the sound drops out has been fixed in the most recent version. I hope you can continue to use this as a tool to help with your drumming! I am a solo developer, not a large company, so please feel free to contact me directly at hello@drum-student.com with any issues and I’ll be sure to fix them as soon as I possibly can! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
