The only annoying thing is that the songs don’t have the actual words with the vocals but that might differ depending on the show you’re doing or license you got the music from I don’t know. Otherwise great app 👍 ### 3/5 — My parents got a divorce *2025-01-20* My parents were always fighting and beating me, especially my dad because he was drinking, they were on the brink of divorce and my mom caught my dad cheating on her with the app and my mom started to beat me out of anger and they now got a divorce, but I will get two Christmases, so that’s a plus. My dad wants me to be the best man for the wedding, but I am currently tied in my mom’s basement. My sister is also tied up with me and she is typing this message. Our father didn’t even know. ### 4/5 — Eh…? *2025-01-15, version 1.101* Great system but they should have a mobile view score and they should also allow us to make notes on the score ### 3/5 — Super crashy *2024-12-24* This is for the iPhone app. It works fine until it doesn’t. It disappears off my phone entirely at random times and has to be reloaded. It will crash often if you try to go back and do a song again; you’ll need to close out and reload app. ### 2/5 — This app is not as helpful as I thought *2024-12-13, version 1.100* This app is horrible it is glitchy and I have never seen a worse app. This is not too good but I will say it kind of works but this app does not keep me show ready ### 2/5 — Helpful when working *2024-11-14* The app is kinda helpful when it works. I find it somewhat useful for rehearsing the tracks. However, it often freezes and needs to be restarted. Or the part mute/solo buttons don’t work and need to be toggled on and off repeatedly. My biggest pet peeve is that the tab bar at the top hides a lot of the important information at the top of the screen in iPadOS 18. If the tab bar could be moved back to the bottom of the screen, the app would be much more usable. ### 2/5 — App does not function efficiently *2024-10-04* The app often freezes. I have to swipe out of it and restart multiple times. If I switch over to a different app on my phone, when I come back to this app, it shuts down and I have to re-open. As a music director, this is a frustrating waste of rehearsal time. ### 3/5 — Great idea, buggy app *2024-09-23, version 1.97* It’s better than nothing when trying to practice material, but not much better. It’s very very buggy in a ton of ways, and not user friendly at all. But it is still better than nothing. ### 1/5 — iPad app simply doesn’t work! *2024-08-02, version 1.93* The app works great on my MacBook, but I’d love to be able to use the iPad version when I’m just rehearsing around the house. However, each time I try to log in and access the music with the code provided - Nope! The app immediately crashes and boots me to my Home Screen. I re-open, enter the code and the same happens, again and again. Very frustrating! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Worst music app for theater!! *2026-02-14* Using this app for the first time at our theater (iPad edition). Instead of getting the tracks meant for Grease School Edition, we got tracks for the full Broadway show. So our director spent 3 HOURS fixing issues with the track lengths because the app crashes constantly!!! It is hard to play transition tracks repeatedly, because the sound stops instead of restarting. In other apps/players, I can press this ⏪ to start the song over, in this app, it either doesn’t work, or sends it to a random point in the song. The only indicator of song length is measures, having a minute/seconds counter would be so much more helpful. Every single track has a metronome that cannot be turned off, which is a pain to listen to, and sometimes confuses the kids. Also the majority of the tracks are piano and metronome, with no guitar or drums, which just sounds odd. While I get that a lot of my issues might be fixed easily, the constant crashing and stress of using this system is very irritating. ### 1/5 — My mama took my chastity belt off so I could use this app *2026-01-22* My mama got this app to help me learn my gospel songs, but she fell in love with it too much and left the church. She put on my cage when I was really little, and it saved me from feeling naughty. But this app made her fall in love and she put it into an ai chatbot so it could talk back to her. She started a cult for this app and removed my cage to free me and tried to get me to join her show ready cult. I just escaped and I don’t know what to do with my life now :( ### 1/5 — TRASH!!! *2025-12-17, version 1.101* We used this for musical and it never worked! It wouldn’t play, always glitching, and more. Luckily my parents never divorced for the app, but I’m still very upset at this bad bad bad app. DONT DOWNLOAD!!! ### 1/5 — Not loading on my iPhone 16 Pro Max OS 26.1 *2025-10-28, version 1.101* Does not load on my iPhone ### 1/5 — terrible app *2025-07-06, version 1.101* terrible app, was practicing for an audition and it kept randomly kicking me out and glitching, was not the wifi ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2025-06-17* As much as I might like to license a Concord theatrical show again in the future, I will never do so again if it means I have to work with this useless app. The buttons don’t show up on the bottom of the iphone screen. It barely shows the unreadable tops of the buttons — just enough to hint that buttons might be there. Did anyone in app development test this awful thing? ### 1/5 — No *2025-06-09, version 1.101* I do not care ### 1/5 — wouldn’t let me use it *2025-02-10, version 1.101* i tried using this app to practice my songs for my play, and every time i put the passcode in it kicked me out! now i can’t practice any of my songs. ### 1/5 — Ended My Marriage *2025-01-20* My perfect (ex)husband and I downloaded this app to practice to our annual family musical. Needless to say I started noticing a change in him. He was staying at work late and coming home smelling like his phone. One day I walked into our bedroom to find him laying with the app. I ended it then and there and suddenly our home was torn apart. My poor son had to go therapy and now I don’t believe in love and I plan on crashing my (ex)husband’s wedding. ### 1/5 — America *2024-11-13, version 1.100* All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.

He’s got beautiful lips and thighs like the pillars of the coliseum. We lock eyes, something changes, doves fly in the air, Obama is there App sucks dih btw ### 5/5 — Updates *2026-04-08* I think the app has some serious potential. I like being able to hear my own part and then layer it together. I wish it was more musical than synth but outside of that, I think it’s a handy tool for me to use. ### 5/5 — Very helpful tool *2025-12-04* As a community theater member, I found this app extremely helpful for Learning your part -especially in harmony and being able to layer other voices in or out. ### 5/5 — It was actually good *2025-07-19* I read a lot of reviews for this app. Despite the weird, random ones, it said that it didn’t work. That just straight up wasn’t true. This was a good app that helped me prepare for my show, and I was, as corny as it sounds, Show Ready! ### 5/5 — I’m a theater kid *2025-02-26, version 1.101* A good app for theater kids. ### 5/5 — Wow *2025-01-21* On a dark and stormy night, I opened this up full volume in an empty street in uptown Chicago. It was the karaoke track to smash mouth’s “all star” and my phone automatically connects to my speaker. The opps really appreciated this blared in their territory. Thank you guys resolving a 13 year conflict. ### 5/5 — ENDED IN DIVORCE/LOVE *2025-01-20* My ex wife and I downloaded this app for our yearly family musical, but things went unexpectedly. The app wooed me, every day I found myself eager to open this app. My ex started to suspect things, but we were able to keep it quiet. I convinced my wife to keep the app after our musical, using in secret until my wife walked in on us. There was a lot of fighting after we got caught, but it didn’t matter because I had found the love of my life. Thank for all the support from my online family, I can’t wait for the wedding! ### 5/5 — The most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen *2025-01-20, version 1.101* This app is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. It was so good that I left my wife and child because they thought I had a mental illness that caused my addiction to it. Clearly they don’t know true art when they see it and are just jealous. I made sure to give them both a good beating before I left. This app was so good that it even ended my terminally ill grandmothers suffering, she spontaneously combusted in the spot. This is a must have. ### 5/5 — App Works👍 *2024-11-18, version 1.100* this is a working app ### 5/5 — YAY *2024-01-11, version 1.92* This app is good. I haven’t tried it yet though --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
