Learn acoustic guitar with a clear plan for today. Guitar Practice Room brings together 80 short lessons, daily goals, a six-string tuner and chord charts for small practice sections. Follow the 90-day curriculum at your own pace, repeat a lesson and pick up where you left off. Start with one string Two microphone checks guide your first practice and show your progress. Resume an unfinished block when you return. Lessons unlock as prerequisites are completed, and finished lessons stay available for review. A two-minute timer with pause, resume and your own completion check makes room for a short session. Practice a small section Explore 72 practice pieces with static chord-accompaniment charts divided into sections. Search the whole library or browse starter picks and favorites. Five selected pieces offer timed section repeats and bookmarks that remember your piece, section, tempo and capo for next time. Tune and check your sound Tune all six strings and get feedback on single notes and open chords. Microphone analysis happens on device; detection audio is neither saved nor uploaded. The metronome and reference tones are synthesized locally. Microphone results and self-assessments are shown separately. Record, listen and compare Record up to 180 seconds per take and keep up to 24 recordings. Play, delete, protect important takes or export them through the system share sheet. Listen side by side to takes with matching piece, section, tempo and capo settings. Practice history, review suggestions and weekly goals help you choose your next step. Reminders are optional. Room to practice on iPhone and iPad Layouts adapt to orientation, window width and larger text. Wide screens place practice and controls side by side; narrow windows use a readable column. Layout changes preserve your current practice, favorites and capo. Edit preferences before saving, or cancel to discard changes. How practice works Rhythm, chord changes, two-minute sessions and song sections use timed guidance with your confirmation or self-assessment. They do not provide automatic full-song scores. Comparing takes is a listening tool, not an automatic measure of improvement. Charts are static chord sections, not complete melody tablature. This version has no teacher demonstration audio/video or prerecorded backing tracks. The 90-day path organizes lessons without promising a skill level by a deadline. No account, ads, subscriptions or in-app purchases Practice records stay on device. Performance recordings are not uploaded automatically; export is your choice. Usage analytics is off by default. Only when enabled does Umeng receive feature events, installation identifiers and SDK device/network information. You can turn it off in Settings. See the privacy policy for details. Start with one small goal and build your own practice rhythm.

Physics by Voice

Read full description

Physics by Voice is an interactive mechanics course built around an original step-by-step teaching method. The course begins with the most fundamental questions: what “where” means, how a coordinate and a reference frame describe position, and how motion is represented as a change in position. It then introduces velocity, acceleration, forces, Newton’s laws, work, and energy one concept at a time. The app includes: • 18 sequential mechanics lessons • Spoken explanations and questions • Speech recognition for answers • Clear coordinate, vector, and force diagrams • Practice problems with detailed solutions • Russian and English languages • Progress stored locally on the device • No advertising and no in-app purchases Course topics include: • Foundations of physical quantities and formulas • Kinematics and reference frames • Vectors, free fall, and circular motion • Dynamics and Newton’s laws • Gravitation, weight, and weightlessness • Pressure and Archimedes’ principle • Momentum, friction, and torque • Center of gravity and equilibrium • Work, power, kinetic energy, and potential energy Microphone and speech-recognition access are used only for voice interaction. The app has no user accounts, advertising, or developer-operated data collection.
