### 2/5 — This app is meh

*2026-07-14, version 5.1.11*

I’m an SOR student, and although it does have some songs and helpful stuff, it only had 1 of 4 songs I was assigned at SOR, so I can’t practice unless I have a sheet of written music to bring home. Overall, it can’t be that hard to fix these problems.

### 2/5 — Login sucks

*2026-05-16, version 5.1.11*

This login situation effin sucks

### 4/5 — Login is weird

*2026-04-23, version 5.1.11*

okay so this app is good and all but it keeps logging me out and I type in my email and password and stuff but unless I use Pike13 it won’t let me and since I don’t have safari (or any web browser) it makes it harder so please fix they

### 4/5 — Muito bom

*2025-11-18, version 5.1.5*

O que poderia melhorar é que em 7 em 7 dias tem que refazer o login se vc n entra

### 4/5 — Not working

*2025-10-12, version 5.1.5*

I love the company, I go there a lot, but when I go to sign up, the crest account button doesn’t work. Pls fix this.

### 2/5 — from a student…

*2025-08-16, version 5.1.4*

I’ve been with SoR since I was maybe 6-7 as a guitarist, and joined the band program at 13. Everything was pretty okay up until the new ownership of the School of Rock I go to in 2024. Suddenly, we were basically forced to use this app and teachers got irritated that I didn’t have it even though I wasn’t informed of its existence up until a few months ago. 

 It reacts SO badly with screen time that you have to use up the one extra minute, THEN put in the passcode or send a request. You can’t just do the latter immediately. And my band rehearsals are at 7, so it was pretty much out by then. It also logs you out constantly and, this is mostly a grievance with management, but my preferred name is in quotes with my deadname still there 😭😭. 

 There are also MULTIPLE typos in some songs. For example, my band was assigned David by Courtney Barnett as one of our songs, but the riffs are so overly complicated for a band of kids, and has many mistakes that aren’t addressed. You can also barely hear the lead guitar part in the track. The tab for Do You Realize?? by the Flaming Lips also tries to bend music theory and even forgot to write the chords in the second half of the intro. Dog Days Are Over by Florence + The Machine is really only G, Am, and Em, but the app puts in MULTIPLE others at the end that make no sense and also makes you start in the middle of the song for some reason. 

 Now, I love Green Day, but maybe put a clean version of the lyrics to American Idiot so kids aren’t saying a slur 😭😭?? Just a thought… 

 Lessons have been HEAVILY altered by the app. Individual lessons with band program kids are shortened to 30mins to give “more time with the band”, as if learning the songs isn’t just as if not more important (the non-band kids still get 45mins…). Also, we don’t really write anything down anymore, so I’m really having issues memorizing songs that literally have more than 3 chords. If that’s not a problem then I don’t know what is. 

 In conclusion, the UI is broken, the tabs can be wrong and you won’t know unless you’re well versed in music theory, there are slurs in songs on an app meant for kids as young as 5, and it ruined the in-person lessons. This would be a great tool if OPTIONAL and implemented into lessons here and there, not EVERY. SINGLE. WEEK.

### 4/5 — The tuner = crash

*2025-05-27, version 5.1.4*

So good app but if you set a tuner to high the App will crash but uhh yeah idk

### 2/5 — bruh

*2025-05-21, version 5.1.4*

ive been a sor student for almost 3 years. half of the music on here is written wrong. my instructors have had to rewrite so many things for us.

### 5/5 — NOT SIGMA

*2024-10-09*

So my beta band teacher told me to use this not unskibidi app but what the gyat?? It signed me out!! You’ve gyat to be kidding me, so I take my alpha self and sign back in, but as I grab my lunchly and start listening to the “Talk-tuah” podcast, I realize it’s so unsigma, it’s so hard to Skibidi navigate, not alpha sigma male like me. Now then, fank you pwincess, I shall be own my way.

### 1/5 — AHHHHHH

*2026-06-30, version 5.1.11*

Bro. I played brain stew almost perfectly. I tuned my guitar Eb Ab Db whatever, and I got a 44.

### 1/5 — Grading is too harsh

*2026-06-11, version 5.1.11*

I was doing this assignment from my teacher on our lips are sealed from a long time ago and when I was playing the chorus, I had to go through so many attempts and still haven’t gotten it. Please make the grading easier, I need a 90 or more, but I’m stuck on 89.

### 1/5 — Ai

*2026-05-16, version 5.1.11*

Why tf does a music app have ai. Pathetic. This is literally a music school. Die.

### 1/5 — Please correct the logon and verification process

*2025-08-27, version 5.1.4*

Server is not sending out verification email quickly, and then using the correct password it is not remembering the password and saying login incorrect - please fix so I can update review

### 1/5 — Immediately broken

*2024-12-11, version 5.1.4*

I’ve been attempting to create and account for my son for 2 days and each time it says to confirm email address. Well…I haven’t received a single confirmation and have re-attempted with various emails and searched through every folder, even the promotions folder. Nothing.

### 1/5 — STUPID

*2024-07-22, version 5.1.2*

STUPID STUPID STUPID STUPID STUPID

### 1/5 — BAD

*2024-07-18, version 5.1.2*

this app is NOT skibidi. i rate it 1 gyatt out of 10. couldnt even edge to this. NOT SIGMA!

### 1/5 — ADD THROUGH THE FIRE AND FLAMES PLZ🙏

*2024-07-18, version 5.1.2*

House band really wants to play it but the people working here say it’s not on the app so i checked and it isn’t. Not sure how the song adding process goes but any attempt to add this iconic DragonForce song would be greatly appreciated - bassist and drummer “mask”

### 1/5 — Can't do any of the assignments!

*2024-01-06, version 5.1.0*

We are unable to record any of the assignments, after recording it gets stuck in a loading screen forever. This occurs on both my iphone and my partner's Android phone. This used to be a periodic issue but now occurs every time.

### 1/5 — 5 stars

*2023-08-04, version 5.0.9*

I really like this app and it has been very useful for me to help me get better at play my instrument. Thanks

Im 10 years old going to school of rock and this helps your instructors can give u songs to work on and u can send them u practice while recording really helpful the only thing is u have to sign in every time u don’t use it frequently (u wont understand the app if u don’t do school of rock) IF U WANT TO GET THE “GAME” FOR FUN IT WONT MAKE SENSE
