Pretty

I love the soothing sounds of the bells.
Thank you for this. Each Xmas I play away to my hearts content.

Description Unclear

Description made it sound like the sounds would play in iMessageβ€” which is what I bought it for. The emojis have no sound , or it’s not clear how to activate the sound. I want my money back. I don’t want/need an iPhone app that plays bells and music. I can do that other ways. Bah humbug.

Best App EVER! πŸ””

I have had this app on my phone for more than 10 years, and I still play with it every Christmas. I’m trying to teach my 95-year-old neighbor how to use her iPhone, and yesterday I gifted her this app. As I showed her how to use it, her eyes lit up! I’ve never seen anyone so excited about anything! She can’t wait to show it to her family! It was such a hit that I gifted it to another neighbor, a single father with a 7-year-old boy. I know they’ll have fun playing the songs. Thank you to the developer for such an outstanding, flawless app. I’ve never encountered any problems, and it’s so well-designed and user-friendlyβ€” even for kids and older people!

Response from developer

Thank you! Merry Christmas!

Love it!

Great bell to begin homeschooling during this pandemic. Relaxing to listen to the songs even though they are Christmas songs I love the bells. Peaceful.

Really good but...

I would love to have the bells labeled with their note names so that you can play your own music more easily. Love the sound and general function. It would also be nice to have another octave to choose from.

ipad rotate for song doesn't work

this feature is not working

Label the bells!

Please label the bells to make it easier to identify the notes.

Oh, what fun!

The app is a delightful way to easily get the β€œhang” of note values. It’s a fun experience all the way β€˜round. Mrs. Santa gives it four and a half chocolate chip cookies!

So Cool!

I love this App! It works perfectly too! Thanks!!

Lyrics off beat

The printed lyrics highlight one beat later than the note they go with. Otherwise an ok app.

Holiday Bells great fun

Beautiful sound--fun to play, or just to listen!

How do I upload the sticker pack to iMessage?

A Ringing Endorsement!

This app does exactly what I'd hoped, letting me play cool-sounding bells to make my own music or accompanying the included classical holiday tunes. I appreciate that it let me ring more than one bell at a time (I could ring at least six at once on my iPad), and it sounded exactly like I'd expect a bunch of bells ringing at the same time. I wish there was an option to see which note each bell was playing, since that'd make it easier to play my own tunes, but that's a minor quibble that doesn't detract from the package. (B)ring in some joyful noise for your holidays!

The Happiest App In The World!

I've loved this app for years, and the new version is even better! Christmas life hack: Take it caroling with you and use the sleigh bell setting for instant accompaniment.

It's starting to sound and look a lot like Christmas!

What a cool app. This latest update even includes holiday iMessage stickers. Wow!

Holiday Favorite!

My whole family uses this throughout the year but especially around the holidays. Best app by far. I've had this app since my first iPhone. Look forward to any updates to the latest iOS.

Lots of fun!

Love the app!

It's such a fun app, especially for this time of year!

not kidding, great app

Holiday bells is the best bell app on the App Store. What a delight to see that there is a handbell set. By the way, I am happy to see that there are 15 bells in the handbell set. Jingle bells, no prob atall. A single handbell, not a problem at all. There is one thing that I need to tell you guys. I am a voice over user. So when I get on the handbell set tab, or more tab on the app, then I experience crashing. but I am so not giving up on this app.
