User reviews

Not bad!

For me, the app isnโ€™t that bad. I just think that there should be an option to play a 12-hole ocarina as well as the 4 hole, but still an amazing app! ๐Ÿฅฐ

Ok but not good

Maybe you could add freestyle

Crash

It crashes on opening(I'm on an iPod touch 4g)

Meh

For a free app eh... It sounds close enough I guess however there is very noticeable lag between playing notes for any song and it makes it impossible to really play anything that resembles "music" as the app seems to struggle as you change notes. Again can't complain too much as the base app is free, but it really isn't worth upgrading to the full ver especially when you can order a true ocarina for cheap online and learn it, and not deal with the very noticeable delay. If the app does convince folks to try the real thing though, then that's one good thing about it.
