### 5/5 — 妈妈咋也不用担心我自学二胡找不到音准啦

*2025-03-06*

超级好用。。。。。。我超爱。。。自学二胡，差点放弃的时候，这个app出现了。。。。直接让我找回自信。。

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2020-07-16*

Bad app. As soon as you download it it will stops working and asks you to buy it. No in app purchase it’s app purchase first.

**Developer response:** App free try for 99 days.

### 5/5 — Good app - just add a few simple instructions

*2020-06-23*

I like the app. Works with notes and chords

### 2/5 — Works great but is paid

*2020-05-21*

Rather then having ads it just stops working and requires you to buy it. Why not make it paid to begin with? If I was interested in something that costs money I would have used the free trial of an app that actually says it costs money.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-02-22*

I was trying to play a song on water cups, I hit it and it was like 3 different notes. Bb, Eb, and E.

**Developer response:** Water cups can not always generate a pure 'Musical Tone'. You see 3 different notes, Bb, Eb, and E, that is because Water cup did generate 3 different tone mix together. Pls try it with a true musical instrument.
