Make practicing fun. Log your practice, connect with a community, rank up on leaderboards, keep a streak alive, and tune without leaving the app. LOG A SESSION IN SECONDS Start a live timer, or enter it after the fact. Minutes practised, how it went on a one-to-five scale, what you focused on, and which pieces and scales you touched. Split a long session into warm-up, scales, technique and repertoire. YOUR REPERTOIRE, TRACKED Every piece, étude and scale in one place — composer, difficulty, and where it stands. Move finished pieces to Past and keep the history you built. A REAL TUNER, DRONE AND METRONOME Chromatic tuner with A4 adjustable from 440 to 445 Hz and an in-tune range you set. A sustained drone on any note to tune against. Metronome from 15 to 360 BPM with custom time signatures, accented downbeats and tap tempo. Audio is analysed on your device — never recorded, never uploaded. STREAKS AND GOALS THAT FIT Set a daily target and how many days a week you're aiming for. Miss one and a streak freeze covers you — life happens, and quitting shouldn't be the penalty. STATS WORTH LOOKING AT Minutes by week, month and all time. Which pieces are eating your practice, how consistent you've been, and whether this month beat the last one. Weekly and Monthly Wrapped, ready to share. CLIMB THE RANKS Six tiers — Student, Prodigy, Professional, Soloist, Virtuoso, Maestro — earned from consistency, scales, repertoire and performances. There is a secret seventh. FRIENDS, NUDGES AND BATTLES Add friends, see their sessions in a feed, nudge someone whose streak is slipping, and challenge them to a head-to-head streak battle. Friends and global leaderboards for streak, rank and notes. 46 INSTRUMENTS Strings, woodwind, brass, keys, guitar family, percussion and voice — violin to euphonium, piano to turntables. Play more than one? Track them all. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick your instrument and set a daily target. 2. Practise — start the timer, or log it once you're done. 3. Watch the streak, the stats and the rank build. In English, Spanish, Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese and Arabic. Free to use. No ads, and we never sell your data. Tutti Pro adds advanced statistics, the full rank breakdown, unlimited friends, battles and leaderboards, and unlimited repertoire, notes and performances.
