## What is Practice Time‎?

Practice Time is the practice partner every musician has needed but never had. Stop logging hours. Start logging real practice.

THE PROBLEM WITH TRADITIONAL PRACTICE
Sitting at the piano for two hours and actually practicing for two hours are not the same thing. Most musicians drift between repetition and genuine focus — and the gap between the two is where progress lives. Practice Time makes that gap visible.

WHAT PRACTICE TIME DOES
Tap your PracticeTag NFC card to start a focused session. The app tracks your time, keeps your metronome running, and builds a record of every session you complete. Tap again to end it. No setup, no friction — just focused practice.

FEATURES

Metronome — Free, always available. Adjustable tempo (30–240 BPM), time signatures, beat unit control, subdivisions, compound meters (6/8, 9/8, 12/8), and accent on the first beat.

Practice Timer — Set a duration and choose Light or Deep Practice. Save practice modes with your preferred tempo and time signature. Deep Practice can block distracting apps during a session using Screen Time (Family Controls). Earn XP and maintain daily streaks. Mystery rewards can add bonus practice time spread across upcoming days.

SustainAI — Real-time pedal analysis using your iPhone’s microphone. Hear when sustain technique is creating harmonic blur — feedback that used to require a teacher in the room.

Session History & Goals — Every completed session is logged: duration, tempo, time signature, XP, and more. Review your progress and set weekly practice goals.

Practice Recording — Record yourself with the camera and review playback when you’re done.

Messages — Stay connected with your teacher, parents, or classmates. Direct chats, class chats, and assignment threads. Send text, photos, voice messages, and practice videos. Long-press to block or report; mute notifications per chat.

Video calls — Start a one-to-one video call from an eligible chat. Works in-app and with the system incoming-call experience when you’re away from the app.

Homework & classrooms — Teachers assign work; students see assignments in Homework and linked message threads. Class chats keep everyone in sync.

Linked accounts — Students, teachers, and parents connect accounts for messaging, supervision where required, and in-person pairing when nearby.

XP Store — Spend XP on Streak Freezes and XP Boosts (no subscription).

THE PRACTICETAG
The PracticeTag is an NFC card you keep at your instrument. One tap starts a session; one tap ends it. The physical ritual signals focused practice. Available at practicetime.org.

WHAT YOU GET
The metronome is always free. Other features (Practice Timer, SustainAI, Session History, XP Store, Practice Recording, and full messaging/call access as enabled for your account) are unlocked with a one-time Software Bundle provisioning code — no subscription and no recurring charges. Pay once. Keep it forever.
