악기를 꾸준히 연습하고 싶은데, 막상 앉으면 "오늘 뭐 하지?"부터 막히셨나요? Notch는 현재 곡과 스킬을 바탕으로 오늘의 루틴을 자동으로 준비합니다. 타이머를 켜고 항목을 하나씩 완료하기만 하면 됩니다. 오늘 루틴 악기, 실력, 연습 중인 곡과 스킬을 입력하면 워밍업·스킬·곡 연습으로 구성된 루틴이 자동으로 만들어집니다. 항목을 직접 추가·수정하거나 순서를 바꿀 수도 있습니다. 타이머와 메트로놈 항목마다 개별 타이머를 돌리고, 내장 메트로놈으로 BPM을 맞춥니다. 연습이 끝나면 그날의 메모를 남길 수 있습니다. 연속 기록과 목표 일일 목표 시간을 설정하고 매일 달성하면 연속 기록이 쌓입니다. 불꽃 이미지를 캡처해 공유할 수 있습니다. 주간 리포트 요일별 연습 시간 그래프, 월간 달력, 날짜별 루틴 상세를 한눈에 확인합니다. 리포트 이미지를 저장해 SNS에 공유할 수도 있습니다. 알림 연습 리마인더, 월요일 목표 알림, 주간 리포트 알림을 원하는 시각에 받을 수 있습니다. 개인 데이터 보호 회원가입이 없습니다. 모든 연습 기록은 기기 안에만 저장되며, 광고나 분석 SDK로 사용자를 추적하지 않습니다. 로컬 백업으로 데이터를 직접 관리할 수 있습니다.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Notch at none against SongLoops's 2. Notch also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
