### 2/5 — Program is great, app is buggy.

*2025-05-21, version 3.4.4*

Love the program and the songs but the app is super buggy and my kids are always wanting to play the bells on the app and it’s a drama fest every time.

### 3/5 — Pretty good, but wish we could make a playlist

*2024-08-20, version 3.4.4*

The app works great, but I wish you could make playlists; it is a bit cumbersome to pick out songs from the entire set list. If there was a way to create our own playlist, I could select the songs by the week, and my kids would be able to more independently practice with them.

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2023-08-26, version 3.1.0*

The app in general seems to have some glitches. It shows the class I’m enrolled with, with all my daughters info. But when I go to listen to music, it says I don’t have access to any albums. Can’t figure out why.

### 4/5 — Please add playlists!

*2023-05-10, version 3.0.0*

We love this app so we can listen to all our music. But please please allow us to make playlists. I would love to make a classical music one, a lullaby one, etc.

### 2/5 — Not user friendly

*2023-03-25, version 3.0.0*

Super glitchy.

### 3/5 — Potential!

*2023-01-10, version 3.0.0*

I love access to the music of all semesters. I like the link to enrollment. I hear there is a way to make a playlist which will be great. I just have had difficulty signing in. Many times. And with changes in password and then previous password returning etc. and face ID.This app will be great soon I know!

### 4/5 — This just needs one more capability…

*2023-01-05, version 3.0.0*

We love to listen to these and review old semester’s songs….but I would LOVE a way to make playlists. It would be so great to listen to just the classicals, all our favorites, all the action songs, all the lullabies…please consider making that!

### 4/5 — Yes

*2022-10-04, version 2.0.0*

I love it it helps me with remembering for my piano. All I need to say is there should mobile work books

### 3/5 — Good app sometimes

*2022-09-30, version 2.0.0*

The app doesn’t let me sign in when I’m not at home. Very frustrating. I want to listen in the car, but the app doesn’t work away from home.

### 2/5 — This is a review of the app - NOT the LPM program

*2022-09-15, version 2.0.0*

The LPM program is amazing and I love it for all of our kids. Wish I had it when I was a young, developing musician.

While playing music on the app, though, it drains my phone battery terribly, and turns my phone into a little pocket oven. There's got to be some app improvements so this is not the case. Please reach out if you need more info from me to make this app better.

### 2/5 — Needs to play whole playlist

*2022-06-01, version 2.0.0*

Only one song plays at a time which is super annoying when you are trying to play music in the car or while playing.

### 2/5 — Songs just stop

*2022-05-05, version 2.0.0*

NEEDS A PLAY ALL BUTTON!

Only one song is played and it won’t go all the way through the song list so it’s not something we can listen to in the car. That was the main time we listened to the music. We’ve listened to the music very little this year because this app is so frustrating. Disappointed. I preferred having the cd

### 2/5 — Love the LPM program! - the app is sadly frustrating

*2022-04-19, version 2.0.0*

100% recommend these classes to everyone! We love LPM and Sound Beginnings! We miss the consistency of being able to listen to the music on CD’s because the app kicks us out every few minutes - it’s hard to use during the most pivotal time of use - aka the car. My kids don’t even know all the songs by heart anymore because the app deprived them of listening that often. If there was a way to download the music digitally like we used to, onto the voice recorder app, that would be excellent! That voice recorder app doesn’t kick us out. 
Other than being kicked out while listening to music, the app is very nice, very easy to navigate and I love how it keeps all of the music in one location for sound beginnings and LPM. It’s very appealing to the eye, I love the advertisements that keep us in the loop, and I bet it is the best for teachers as they are teaching. So many great things about the app, but I’m giving it a 2 star since it’s most important function is not serving the students across the board. One person getting kicked out is too many, and alternative options and instructions should be offered to those like myself, having this issue so that our kids can have optimal learning through listening.

### 3/5 — Needs better interfacing with car audio

*2022-01-19, version 1.2.2*

Very convenient app for accessing LPM music, but it’s very “clunky” when it comes to playing music over your car speakers. The app doesn’t register in the screen and if you adjust the volume at all you end up with both the LPM app AND another audio app playing at the same time. Very very frustrating that makes for unsafe distracted driving. We usually don’t use the app in the car unless there’s another adult in the front who can manage all the back and forth of quitting the app and re-opening after it freezes because the car turned on another music app. This is the only app it happens on.

### 3/5 — Can’t play in car

*2022-01-18, version 1.2.2*

So annoying to use in the car. Can’t use the card buttons on starting wheel to scroll through songs so I have to pick up my phone to start Every song so we end up not listening as much. If it wasn’t for the ability to download the albums to iTunes we wouldn’t be able to listen on the go at all. It would be nice if we could do playlists too so we could practice the homework songs each week.

### 2/5 — Constantly crashes

*2021-12-28, version 1.2.2*

The app will constantly crash while playing the music. It doesn’t matter if you run it over WiFi or your cellular data.

### 2/5 — Could use improvement

*2021-11-18, version 1.2.2*

It’s difficult to transition from the CD to the app. I miss the CD! We’d listen to it over and over and it would pick up right where we left off. We’d enjoy the car rides! The app doesn’t allow for this bc the music lives on the phone. Perhaps if we installed on a tablet at home? But we’re just not there yet. I appreciate the hands free access from the CD. The app cannot run while I’m in a call which can be frustrating for the kids as well. I see the benefits but further development is needed. Thank you

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t access music

*2024-05-03, version 3.4.4*

I haven’t been able to play the songs from the app throughout our entire semester

### 1/5 — Can’t Get New Music

*2023-09-04, version 3.1.0*

I have no idea how to get the new music for my child. Thus making this app worthless.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-06-13, version 3.0.0*

It was working like a year ago and now it says unable to run app even when I have the newest phone and had it for 3 years

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-10-10, version 2.0.0*

Too many bugs always signs me out for no reason and unable to allow me to sign in

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-08-31, version 2.0.0*

I hate this app so badly. I have never gotten it to work and I have never been able to get support. This app is so incredibly frustrating.

### 1/5 — Needs improvement

*2021-09-21, version 1.2.2*

Want to like this app but it has so many issues, especially for something that takes the place of the cds we used to get.  We need this for the daily homework and it only works half the time.
Also, the other reviews that are high for this app are dishonest. They just released this app to parents in late August/September so how in the world are all the high starred June reviews even here?

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2021-09-08, version 1.2.1*

I’m so frustrated with this app! It crashes constantly. Today we were trying to listen to a song with my 3 year old and it crashed twice during that one song, having to restart the app each time. I gave up and didn’t even finish the song.

I love the LPM program and I love the idea of the app, but it needs to be fixed. It’s especially frustrating that I had to pay $14 for the digital album, which can only be used on this app, which doesn’t work. They should at least have also included the CD if they hadn’t worked out the bugs yet. 

It seems like most of these reviews are from LPM teachers. I’m guessing they were incentivized to leave a good review. The app as it is right now does not deserve such a high score. Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work!

*2021-09-07, version 1.2.1*

I can’t get the songs to play all the time. They don’t continue to play if I am not using my phone and keeping it “awake” the whole time so it cuts songs off in the middle sometimes. This is a terrible app! Go back to cds.

### 1/5 — Quits constantly

*2021-09-07, version 1.2.1*

Useless for playing the music.  If you don’t keep touching the screen and stay in the app it quits after a song and a half.

### 1/5 — App

*2021-09-02, version 1.0*

Disappointed that we don’t have cds! So much easier and convenient. The app is good when my child is with me but he can’t always listen to the music when he doesn’t have my phone or iPad. The apps nice but we should also have a cd. There should be an option.

We love having the music from our music class everywhere we go! My son is 5 and has been in 2 classes so far and getting ready to sign him up for the next one!

### 5/5 — Redesigned app is MUCH IMPROVED

*2022-01-28, version 2.0.0*

Thank you for taking our feedback to make this app better. 

Bottom line: the app now works much like Spotify or Apple Music, instead of its halfway developed cousin. 

Thanks! We love the program and now the app is of suitable quality for the LPM brand.

### 5/5 — Easy to use!

*2022-01-26, version 2.0.0*

Such a great app to use for parents of LPM students! Easy to use, navigate! Thank you!!

### 5/5 — So awesome!

I’m so excited to have all the music I need for class right here in the app. Hooray!

### 5/5 — Adding songs to playlist

*2021-08-31, version 1.0*

We need to be able to have access to the instrumental tracks and be able to add them to the lesson playlists.

### 5/5 — Great to have music

*2021-08-12, version 1.0*

So happy to finally have access to the music!
