Practice Space 4+

Are you able to make only a few people group chats?

Although the app is mostly helpful for tracking practice, it almost never saves my practice streak, even when I buy the “streak freezer” power up. I had an almost 90 day streak, but I had go somewhere for the day and wasn’t able to practice. I checked that I had a streak freezer in my inventory before I left and it was there. The next day, I checked and all of my hard work was erased! It had only one streak day. I got worried but a notification popped up saying if I practiced that day, my streak would go back to normal. I practiced, and guess what? Nothing happened!!! Another thing that should be fixed is that when you are outside the app with the timer going, and timer goes over the goal, it stops on your practice goal and say something like, “your practice had been paused due to interactivity.” I mean, what if you are doing other music work outside of the app with, say 80 minutes going, and when you check the app it stops at your 30 minute goal. So in all, the app could use some improvement which I hope people fix.

My kids started using the practice space app about a year ago. I was impressed at how they were able to keep track reminders from their teachers about what to focus on, what pieces to practice and how many times, and various exercises they needed to complete. Practice was also more effective because their teachers were able to upload videos demonstrating technique. They have grown in their independence during this year. Thanks to a constantly updating leaderboard and the ability to earn gems and avatars, the kids have stayed motivated and complain less about practicing! As a bottom line, they not only practice more (number of days and duration), they practice more effectively and most importantly they are more engaged.
