Show|Ready FAQ
Is Show|Ready free?
Yes, Show|Ready is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Show|Ready legit?
⚠️ The Show|Ready app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
Incredibly unstable. Lags and lacks. Pretty useless!
- The app crashes whenever you try to add anything (markers, tempo changes, vamps, etc.) to a measure with a measure number less than 1 (which is common in shows).
- The app crashes randomly when executing edits.
-…and whenever the app crashes (which is often!) it doesn’t save your changes, so you can start over with your editing! Grrrr!
- You can only change tempi from 50-200% which is useless when some tempi are pre-programmed to be less than 10 Bpm. And you can’t edit the pre-programmed tempi.
- There is a delay on pressing PLAY, so you can’t properly time it with the players.
- The “continue” button only works sometimes.
- The app doesn’t work with an attached keyboard.
- You can’t edit anything lower than 1 whole beat, for instance adding a caesura between two beats.
iPhone App Needs Update!
It’s fine when it works, but many times when you click to go out of a vamp, repeat, cesura, etc it will glitch and the app will completely freeze, needing a complete reboot. Very frustrating!! Better than no app but still have used much better apps than this
Works OK, when it works
This review is for the iPad version. The UI is crowded with admin features that most users won’t need—or even have access to. There’s no ability to loop, so practicing passages requires manually dragging the progress slider back every time, not great for steady practice. It’s hit or miss to set the slider accurately.
Every now and then the app freezes for no reason and requires a reboot. At other times there’s a low bass buzzing that only goes away with a reboot.
It’s better than no rehearsal app, but I I’ve used much better rehearsal apps.
Issues for me
My friends use it and they say it works great, but none of the buttons that should appear at bottom of screen are there for me. I tried reinstalling it and it was still the same. I wish I could show an image of it for you to see
No vocal tracks
There are no vocal tracks to follow along with. This makes teaching choreography incredibly difficult because they have to know all the music first. I’m very disappointed. You should avoid this at all costs.
straight up just doesn’t work
i’ve had to use this app once before for a show i did last year. when i heard that we were using it again i hoped to god the absolutely out-of-control glitches had been fixed. they have not been. doesn’t matter how many times i put in the password, it kicks me off the app within ten seconds, usually within less than two. i haven’t been able to practice at all because even when it lets me stay on the app long enough to click on the show, none of the tracks are there, and before i’ve even had time to be annoyed about that, it kicks me out again. really hoping it ends up working eventually because i’d like to actually be able to prepare for my show with the tracks we’re using for our performances instead of random youtube karaoke videos.
i’ve contacted app support and they were of no help either.
THIS APP IS SO GLITCHY
I think this app is very helpful for learning the music, but only when it works. It glitches out so much and kicks me out that I have to stop and I can’t practice for the show I’m doing. Also I don’t think it’s ever been updated because the design is so old. I wouldn’t use this app if it wasn’t a platform that my school used.
Kept freezing
Everytime I’d try to do things in the app it would freeze and sometimes the audio will freeze and you have to press play again. This is not a good app. Teachers please don’t use this app.
