Tired of rewinding the same demo over and over? Recorded yourself but had no good way to compare? Violin Tutor does one thing well: it puts you inside the deliberate-practice loop teachers actually recommend โ record, watch, compare, re-record โ without any friction. WHAT IT DOES โข Import a reference Bring in your teacher's demo, a masterclass clip, or a recital reference from Files, Photos, or the Share sheet. Supports MP4, MOV, M4A, MP3, WAV, AAC. โข Mark the hard passage Scrub a frame-accurate filmstrip, set Begin and End, and split a piece into focused 5โ120 second segments. Name each one so you remember what you were working on. โข Record with the front camera Tap Record and a 4-beat count-in starts. The front camera shows you live so you can watch your bowing, fingering, and posture while you play. Recording auto-stops at the end of the segment. โข Compare side by side Top panel plays the reference. Bottom panel plays you. Tap one and the other pauses automatically. Scroll through your recording history to see how today compares to last week. โข Adjustable count-in Set the count-in tempo (default 80 BPM) so you start in time, every time. WHO IT'S FOR โข Intermediate-to-advanced violin students working on specific hard passages โข Students whose teacher records demo videos to practice against โข Players who use video review to refine bowing, intonation, and posture โข Anyone preparing for an audition, recital, exam, or competition who needs to drill detail PRIVACY โข Everything stays on your device. No cloud sync, no upload. โข No account, no email, no location, no device tracking. โข No third-party ads or analytics SDKs. โข Camera, microphone, and Photos access are used only with your explicit permission. GET STARTED 1. Create a local profile (just a name and birthdate โ never sent anywhere) 2. Import a reference video or audio 3. Mark the passage you want to drill 4. Tap Record and play along 5. Compare top and bottom, then go again Built for the violin practice room. No accounts, no subscriptions, no clutter โ just record, watch, refine.
