### 1/5 — Awful as crap i hate it

*2012-12-27*

Aweful as crap hate it so freaking fake it dont sound real at all!
DONT DOWNLOAD AT ALL!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2012-10-03*

So annoying please don't download it.

### 1/5 — Sounds horribly fake!

*2011-11-12*

Sounds like you playing a set of thin old PVC pipes.  And a balloon.

### 2/5 — 🥶💧💦 💾🖱🖲

*2019-12-07*

The right drum sounds pretty good,but the other drum sounds really horrible. PLEASE make better

### 2/5 — lame

*2014-08-21*

Regardless of the drum sound that you select, you keep viewing the same 2 hand drums. So if you pick a djembe or other single drums, you will still see the same two drums.

### 2/5 — Bought version

*2013-01-15, version 1.4*

Most apps remove the adds that pop up after purchase, not happy Jan!

### 2/5 — Not what it seems

*2011-11-05*

Not really a free app.  If you want the sounds described it requires a $0.99 upgrade. Not a big deal, but something you should know before downloading.

### 3/5 — House Drum

*2014-04-03*

This app has a lot of good things going for it, the selection of drums is large and the sound quality is good (for an app). But I have two issues that if corrected would make this five stars for me and they are; when I come off the rim I hear a continuing drum sound that I didn't play ,it's just there?? Second I did the upgrade thinking that would get rid of the ads but an ad for Google maps pops up all the time?
Update the ads went away,I may have spoke to soon on that,sorry, but the drumming that happens and continues after I hit the rim still bothers me and I'm sure that problem can be corrected. Good app otherwise

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2011-11-07, version 1.0*

Wow. What a great app. Free and worth the .99c upgrade.
Has many different unique hand drums. 

Hey, anyone know the secret of apples touch sensitive trick on Garage Band? It would be great with this and many other apps.
