Before, and for months, only a single course was available, Beginner/Level 1. As of March 2026, there is now a second level, Advanced/Level 2. Although there aren’t as many levels available as some other instruments, two levels is a vast improvement over just one. It’s also fun and easy to use.

Hi,thanks for your feedback 🎶😊! Cello was released in tonestro only a few weeks ago, which is why there is currently just one introductory level. We want to assure you that more lessons and courses are already in development and will gradually become available in the app.In the meantime, you can already enjoy many songs, exercises, and the real-time feedback feature to improve your playing. tonestro is continuously expanding, and with a little patience you’ll soon discover much more content for cello.We’d love for you to keep using the app and update your review once the new lessons are released 🚀🎻.
Only has a single beginner course!

I wanted so badly to like this but it only has a single course. It gets you started with playing open string notes; however, that's it. At first I thought I had hit a bug when I couldn't move on to learn about the next step (assuming first position?) but when I reached out to support they said it was brand new and they didn't have other lessons yet. I was told it would be around 3 weeks for the next one.I understand that you need to start somewhere; however, waiting 3+ weeks between lessons is not something I'm willing to do for $100/year. I'm looking to make more rapid progress than that so I'd need to also do something else for lessons. If I understood this was not yet ready I would not have purchased this at all.When you first log into the app they tempt you with a 1 time offer of $99/year if you sign up for the subscription immediately. So I didn't have a chance to see that there was extremely little content. This feels very misleading and I have requested a refund.Be warned, at the time of writing this there is next to no lesson content and no guarantee of when more will be released over time.
