My son loves this app

Every time sloppytip123 junior uses this app he cries tears of joy ❤️‍🩹 and I couldn’t be prouder as a father 🥹

The event

After movement 2 a bug killed everyone’s phone battery. I was scared. Terrified one may say. The root cause. UDB. I don’t know what Arc is but man… it’s dangerous.

Annoying glitch

When I click the play button to see the drill move around, it just switches from page mode to count mode and the drill stays frozen? I looked all throughout the setting in the app and cannot find a solution. Because of this I cannot hear the shows music and I cannot see my dot move around the field.

Tronald Dump’s Thoughts

The app functions very well, I long it very much. You know I am thinking of giving it a Nobel Peace prize it is so good, no one has seen anything like it. They also gave me a tummy rub, it was very nice.

App won’t load

Every time I load the app, it will not load for me and will just stay on the Home Screen. I’ve tried deleting it or resetting my phone, even updating it. But I think it’s just an app issue now.

Response from developer

I'm sorry to hear you're running into this. It sounds like it's related to a firewall or settings issue. Can you chat in on our website or email us at support@joinarc.us and we'll help you get it sorted out!

Another Horrible Update Once Again

I used to really enjoy the previous UDB as it provided an excellent place for all of your drill to be read in an organized fashion, allowing you to see the big picture and shapes of the sets. What this new app brought was absolutely nothing but negatives. Glitchy interfaces, clustered screens, long loading times, you name it. I hope the next upcoming update, if there is one, cleans the app up for actual human usage.

Sorry to hear you're running into issues. Would you mind reaching out to us on chat on our website or emailing us at support@joinarc.us We are pushing out regular performance updates and aren't having any widespread issues being reported so we'd love to dive in and see what you might be experiencing. It's our goal to make sure this is a great experience for you and your band!

Old App is Better

It’s just not user friendly. The old app has everything needed to be successful. This one is confusing for even seasoned adults…imagine a student using it for the first time. It’s just pointless. If you’re able to use the old app, keep it.

Response from developer

Sorry to hear this. Would you please send us an email at support@joinarc.us or chat in on our website with any questions you might have about the new UI. You'll likely be surprised how quickly information is accessible compared to the previous app but it may require a quick demo call with you to assist which we're very happy to do!

Great app

Much love from tel aviv✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️

Don’t understand its purpose

UDBApp Pro is a far better app and I don’t understand the reason for this to exist. Just a worse app overall.

Apple Watch support

It would be nice if instead of it saying what page you’re on on the Apple Watch display, it would say your dot, out if you guys could have an Apple Watch supported app, that would be even better

Sloppy

I agree with sloppytip123s wise words of wisdom when it comes to this app. My eyes also cry when I have to use it and I do not recommend using it for setting ultimate drills.

Wrong Direction!

This makes everything harder and more complicated. User interface needs to be more intuitive.. how the heck am I supposed to go to the Home Screen from Drill? why do directors need to push drill through

Response from developer

Hi, sorry to hear you've run into an issue. When in a drill, simply tap on the UDB button and then the Home Icon. Two taps and you're back on the Home Screen! Any other questions, please chat in on our website or email us at support@joinarc.us and we'll be happy to go through any other parts of the new UI with you!

honestly the drills printed on paper is easier😭

We were just looking at our coordinates on paper before we downloaded the app and it was honestly better…sloppytip123 is so right🥹

Response from developer

Sorry to hear this has been your experience so far. Our brand new UI allows you to tap on the coordinate on the top of the screen and see a dropdown of all your coordinate information but also includes crossing count, step size, measure numbers, etc. In addition to the coordinate information, tapping play on the right side shows you the animation, plays the audio, and displays the path information! Feel free to chat in on our website or email us at support@joinarc.us and we'd be happy to set up a demo walkthrough to show you how to maximize the drill learning experience!

Holy Downgrade

The old app was a lot better and cleaner. This is unacceptably difficult and the UI does not work a lot of the time. I buy UDB to save save and this is costing me more time and the price just went up!

Bring back the old program! I am debating cancelling my subscription for my program and going back to printing paper packets. It’s that bad.

Great but glitchy :(

I love this app, except for some people (including me) different movements don’t move or make sound in the app while others’ apps work with them. Now for one of my movements, I have to click count by count or page by page while most people can press play :( (also yes audio is turned on) please fix 😁

Regarding sloppytip123

I have to say, I am a big fan of the reviews left by my favorite reviewer; sloppytip123. They are insightful, especially when they mentioned that this app caused their eyes to irritate and subsequently water, which they worded as crying. I too faced this phenomenon after downloading and first applying the UDBapp, however I faced tears of hardships instead of tears of joy. The app has a new UI, which, simply put, is absolutely atrocious, and I struggle greatly with the knowledge that I now must use this app as opposed to its predecessor. Again, I love sloppytip123, but instead of leaving a five star review like my idol happened to do, I must instead give my rating a one star due to the reasons previously mentioned.

Response from developer

Stay tuned for an exciting update that increases functionality with the new UI, including the Overview Screen in just a few weeks! Feel free to reach out to us at joinarc.us and share any thoughts. We're always excited to hear from our users to see how we can make our apps more user friendly!

Needs additional settings

The wheel icons are too close together, causing mis-clicks of going to the Home Screen/playing/changing. Please also allow haptics to feel each count when clicking +/- on the gold wheel. Allow “auto update” setting for students.

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback! We are adding these considerations to our list and would be excited to hear about any other ideas that you have. Please chat in on our website or email us at support@joinarc.us.

IM SCARED

Why are the reviews like this

Bad

Not good, please refrain from getting anywhere near this contamination. UDBpro app is so much better!
