Terrible

Annoying buttons. Ads every couple notes you hit. Not worth it

Not a violin

When I played the violin it sounded nothing like a violin. Also, the ads. There are a lot of ads. When the ads play it locks your note in place. There’s nothing to really do in the app either. It’s good for messing with though. highly do not recommend this app. Please fix this app.

Ok ig

It was very hard to learn and it took me an hour to learn

awesome app

This is a cool app

Bad app

This sounds this squidwards clarinet, it doesn’t sound like a violin, my grandpa got resurrected just to shut the app off

Nothing like a violin

This app claims that it sounds like a violin regardless when I attempted to play it brought in horrendous sounds. On top of that, the ads kept interrupting me resulting in the notes dragging out the whole time the ad played. Once I was competent to escape the ad the note I had tried to play before the disturbance glitched and played over the one I was trying to play afterward. After a few endeavors at trying to get it to sound partially acceptable, I became frustrated and quit.

Hard to get used to

Kinda fun to mess with however I don’t think I’m learning anything from it

Lord yes

The only improvement I see now. Is more options to save onto a different I’ll say service. 👏 keep up the good work!

Sound is gone! Hard to use too

I just got this and I COULDN’T GET SOUND TO WORK I had my ringer off so I turned it on but it still didn’t work I had volume up it still wouldn’t work I don’t know what to do please help me!!!!

Nope

I could not even play 3 minutes of it.
Why?
Well:

1) No sound at all. I tried it on my phone and iPad, no sound at all. Fix this.

2) they are not even the correct strings. As someone who plays violin, I am deeply upset by the way this is made. The strings are incorrect, and I can guarantee it won’t even sound good if there was sound.

This could of been good. But it is a complete fail.

Too many adds

As a beginner violinist, I know what a violin sounds like. Not that. But there are WAY too many adds. I can’t even get through two measures without an add popping up! It is ridiculous!

How??

Couldn’t figure it out. Couldn’t get the sound and the help button was completely unhelpful.

no sound

i heard no sound

Does not work

I’m a violinist and this app does not work. The bottom buttons for the open strings play. However, the fingered notes make no sound at all. I want my money back. Please fix your app. It could be a good thing. Right now it is not.

Doesn’t work

My phone has 3D Touch and it’s saying that it doesn’t. It also doesn’t even play! So what’s the point? This would be a really great app if you actually fix the app, and read the reviews instead of just sitting there all lazy. Please fix. 1 star. I want to put 0 but that’s mean.

Has potential

Right now it’s just not good but it can get better if you bring on some people that actually play violin and get their opinions

Too bad

It’s hard getting used to this. I wish this was easier to do. It also need updates

Very complicated

So I tried this app because I forgot my violín some place and I really wanted to practice. I dowloaded it and I didn’t understand anything, so I pressed the help button which was of no use at all. There wasn’t any sound and I really didn’t understand what was happening. Please try to change that otherwise no one will want to use your app.

Please consider

I downloaded this app to try to simulate my violin wherever I go. However, this app sounds nothing like my violin. I have been playing violin for 2 years and I know what I am doing. Therefore, this app is no good.

Best I’ve found

Best violin tuner app that I’ve found. I learn a ton from each lesson, highly recommend!
