### 1/5 — Beware of the Wrath of the Set Meisters

*2025-08-20*

Okay, so basically it was a normal day of marching, my band director had taken this app instead of UDB in order to cut costs and as I’m looking through my drill in set to sets I realized I missed my dot. It was set 67. Then, out from the screen pops out a 6’3 labubu. To the horror of my drum majors the evil marching labubu took my saxohpone and applied dubai chocolate as cork grease and rubbed it all over my keys, making them super sticky. Then the labubu whispered in my ear “next time, hit your set right” but I couldn’t, because the drill had me phasing through a color guard member, but the set meister labubu didn’t care and then chased everyone through the field, applying dubai chocolate to their corks and to their valves in place of oil, then when we tried to come in at our entrance at set 67 we all played a brown note and everyone in the surrounding area got very severe gastrointestinal issues. In short, Unless you want a hulking 6’3 labubu coming after you missing a set, DONT use this app.

### 5/5 — Great progress for a beta app

*2022-07-05*

Looking forward to the future of this companion to EnVision Drill. Would love to see full show set numbering, real performer names in drill view, music and click playback, and (maybe someday) full 3D view. Keep up the good work!
