Sight Reading Factory

The App does not let me register on my mini iPad2, I can’t open the App.....

I’m giving this app three stars because it doesn’t have any fun things like Duolingo when you know you get achievements and then you can buy things and you have a lot of fun learning but this one has nothing of that and you can only choose one time signature or random and multi select doesn’t work but also major F for BF trumpet sounds just like major C and this one doesn’t have any in the tempo. The only tempo that you can choose is 112 BPM (beats per minute) and I would like it if you could choose the tempo for the practice.

The app is missing key features that are available on the web page, and the few features that are included are clunky. Why have a dedicated app if you aren’t going to maintain it? What’s the point of a native app?

This app is super complicated and over priced

I like this app but 3 stars because the metronome is not steady. It hiccups randomly and falls out of time. That shouldn’t pass quality control

I purchased the annual subscription, created the account, only to find there is only ONE tempo for practice, 117 bpm. That’s fine if all your music is at that tempo. I would like to learn at differing speeds.

App is free to download but can’t use it without paying for subscription. Be aware

you made me cry

Choir student here. I decided to get this app to try and learn different voice parts on this(you know, alto, tenor, bass, etc), but I had problems trying to log in and all that. I tried multiple times signing in through my Google account, but it wouldn’t let me do that. On top of that, I didn’t wanna have to have a subscription for this.

This app generates different sight reading patterns/ pieces on demand and you can customize a lot of things (number of measures, annotations, key, tempo, etc.) which is great, but… from level 4 to level 5 the difficulty changes drastically and there is no fingering annotations (it’s not a 5 finger position anymore). If I knew how to quickly figure out the fingering as I sight read, I don’t even think I’d be using this app. Either make an extra level between 4/5 that helps with fingering in a non 5 finger piece, pr add the annotations and let the user activate/deactivate as desired. I’ll change my review when/if that ever happens. Before using this app I couldn’t even sight read a level one piece and it helped me tons, but now I am stuck on level 5.
