About

PracticeXP

Features
Read full description

PracticeXP is practice tracking built for school band and choir programs. Students log practice in seconds. Directors open one dashboard and see who is on track, who has gone quiet, and how the whole program is doing — before the concert, not after. FOR STUDENTS • Log a session in seconds, or start the timer and let it fill the time in for you • Streaks, badges and personal goals that reward showing up • Class and grade leaderboards • Tap-through fingering charts for your instrument • 135 hand-checked practice resources — scales, warm-ups, technique, theory • A daily practice reminder you set yourself, kept on your own phone FOR DIRECTORS • One dashboard covering every student, section and class • A heads-up panel naming students who have missed their goal two weeks running • Section and grade totals, and per-student history • CSV export for your gradebook • Monthly practice summaries emailed to parents • Your school's colors and your own class names, set up by you HOW SCHOOLS GET IT PracticeXP is licensed to schools annually. Students and parents cannot create an account on their own — your band or choir director adds you to the roster, and you sign in with your school email address. Directors whose school is not set up yet can request access at practicexp.com. BUILT FOR A SCHOOL'S RULES • No advertising, and no analytics or tracking SDK anywhere in the student app. • Every AI feature ships switched off. A director turns one on for their program, and the two that transmit a student's own writing need a second, per-class opt-in first. • Each school's data is isolated by rules enforced on our servers, not merely hidden in the interface. • Privacy policy, COPPA notice, data retention policy and a Data Privacy Agreement are published for district review at practicexp.com/security. WORKS WITHOUT A SIGNAL The app keeps your own practice log on the device, so it opens and works in a practice room with bad wifi. Entries sync when you are back online.
