BackTrax

Original BACKTRAX was simply superb. This current $23 monstrosity is as self explanatory as navigating the moon at night with your eyes closed. Nothing makes sense, nothing is explained - unrecognisable icons do not organise, setup or in any way encourage using the app to play and stop a song. It truly is a disgrace.

Old version is far superior to this one. I’ve given up on it and moved to StageTrax as I can’t download the older version which is preferable. Why is the screen white? I don’t want to have to keep going into my setting to change it. Black screen is much more sensible and user friendly. Friends too are saying exactly the same thing. Absolutely loved the older version. This one is just too messy. At least offer a choice. Maybe ask entertainers what they want before deciding?

Not mobile friendly for when on the go, user journey is difficult and not easy to use have had to delete

The old version was brilliant this is just completely stupid, and very very difficult. Still not found one single person that understands it !!!

I’ve used the old version of this very happily for many years. I now have a new iPad and the old version is no longer compatible. But very disappointed that one of the options has been removed in the new version! Why oh why is the button to stop continuous play no longer there! As a pro singer I need the track to stop while I chat or choose the next song in my playlist! Asking for refund

Had Backtax before but just got a new iPad where the current version I have been using isn’t compatible so had to down load this new version looks alright in the pictures however fails to say that you can not download your iOS song onto it I have now lost all my tracks and having to re download everything!

I’ve been using this for a couple of years now and found it invaluable for practice and live work. The user interface is really clear and I can view the chords/lyrics when playing tracks. The lyric auto-scrolling facility is good but it often isn’t always to track the music accurately if there’s blank lines or repeats in a tab - would be brilliant if I was able to manually scroll/realign the auto scroll positioning whilst playing, when it gets out of sync with the music. I’ve had a couple of minor issues but the developer, Ryan, has been really responsive - one just needed his advice, the other resulted in a fix within 48 hours. Brilliant service and product.

Fantastic app for live singing. Used the classic version previously but just upgraded to this. It does everything I could want as a singer. I was sceptical if I could do away with paper lyrics and go digital but am now a complete convert and environmentally friendly too. It’s one of those apps that’s clearly been designed by a user. Whoever designed this clearly understands a live singer’s requirements. Thank you and please keep the updates coming.
