It didn’t show much as or I don’t have to pay

Love it

Learn recorder- tonestro

I love how when it shows that there is a scientist cannot make a note at all it is really helpful and I also like the way when it has like a little ball going up and down for you to do the note and when it shows that you know is too high or low and you made too many mistakes. It really does the song for you and it shows a little bit of the song. They have to redo it again and when you have done like less more mistakes than you did before it shows a score of how well you did and it shows from one to 3 stars of how well you did this app is a fun and simple app and it really teaches you how to play your recorder. I highly recommend this app for other people.

This has improved my learning from recorders

Good

Guys this is a really cool app. It teach you how to do this recorder and it teaches you how to use it. Try it now. This teaches lots of songs and you can’t even unlock the music area so you must try. It’s really cool and you learn more with this and impress your friends and your teacher bye.

Great

Helped me learn so much

Pls read dis is just sad ITS THE FLIPPIN MONEY

So my dad bought me my own recorder. I was so happy and I wanted to learn to play the recorder properly instead of just knowing half of a song. I downloaded it and now i regret it. First of all the instructor speaks Spanish and u need someone to translate it which is NOT helpful at all. When I finished my first lesson I pressed “learn more”. Then wen I tried to do another lesson it said I needed to pay £59.99?!? I mean WHAT THE HECK!?! £60 just for a 1 month trial!😭😭😭 Wish I could give it 0 stars. Thx 4 reading dis P.s whoever likes dis app I’m dissapointed P.p.s whoever has THAT much money ur making me sad 😢

Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that our app did not meet your expectations. The free part of the app is designed to give you a non-binding insight into the type of lessons we offer. In addition, we offer a 7-day free trial that gives you full access to all lessons. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to explore tonestro further. Our musicians and software specialists work full time to provide a high quality learning opportunity to support others who do not have access to in-person lessons. With Premium you can learn with lots of video tutorials, exercises, songs and compete with other musicians worldwide with our weekly challenge. Without the Premium option, we would no longer be able to maintain and improve the app 🎶

It’s not fair

It’s not there how you have to pay $100 just to learn you can only do one lesson and then by the time you get to the next one it’s already too advance

재미있고 신나요!!!!

Free trail doesn’t work

Doesn’t want you to try

Enjoy it so much!

It is a very good tool to learn to play recorder. The challenge option is great. The things to improve: Songs are not well evaluated. Easy, average, hard, etc. The instrument to calibrate the notes is hard to use. Some notes stay red (miss them), even though we play them wright. New songs added are often not new at all… If we need help with something, it is hard to have an answer… But despite all those comments, I want to use it.

Dear Helene, thanks a lot for your 5-star review! 😊 Great that you like our app and that you're having fun playing recorder and violin with tonestro 🎵

Be careful with subscription and other Tonestro apps.

This app advertises that one Tonestro subscription covers all instruments. Based on that, I activated a trial here and later installed the combined app.

However, the trial from this app was not recognized in the combined app. “Restore Purchases” did not sync across apps, and the combined app defaulted to a paid subscription flow without clearly recognizing the existing trial.

As implemented, there appears to be no safeguard preventing multiple active subscriptions under the same Apple billing account. That makes it far too easy for users to be charged more than once when switching between Tonestro apps.

If one subscription truly covers all instruments, that relationship should be automatic and clearly handled across apps. In my experience, it was not.

Response from developer

Hello, Each tonestro app is technically managed by Apple as a separate application with its own in-app purchase products. Even if a subscription may cover multiple instruments in content terms, trials, billing periods, and subscription handling are processed individually through Apple’s system within each specific app. Apple fully controls how subscriptions are recognized and synchronized. The “Restore Purchases” function also only retrieves the in-app products assigned to that specific app in Apple’s billing framework. As developers, we do not have access to payment data and cannot influence how Apple processes or displays subscriptions across different apps. We also cannot merge or override separate in-app subscription products within Apple’s system. All billing, renewals, and refund decisions are handled exclusively by Apple.

A good app

This app is a good app for people to learn the recorder

😡😡

No puedo hacer casi nada 😡😡😡😡porque tengo que tener premiun es injusto

You can’t even browse without laying down serious dough

The trial is only available if you choose a whole year at the end. Otherwise your SINGLE MONTH (no trial offered here) will soak you for 2x to 3x what you put into the introductory level instrument you bought.

If you have the scratch to put into this app, take a few minutes and look at what a 4 lesson local in-person instruction would run. It may be cheaper than forgetting to cancel this.
