Version 7.0.0

Rebuilt completely from the ground up! Our latest generation book reader is a major leap forward:

- Audio Playback: Our app's most significant update is the custom audio playback functionality. Each book includes streamed audio, enhanced with new controls: play, pause, timeline scrub, looping, and speed control (without altering pitch). Playback now seamlessly spans multiple pages, ideal for charts and exercises extending beyond one page.

- Purchase Sync: The second major change is automatic sync for in-app purchases on iOS or other platforms with your HudsonMusic.com account. This feature lets you access your purchases on any supported device, including our web-based reader. This addresses the top customer query: how to access mobile purchases on a computer. Now, if you buy directly at HudsonMusic.com, you can instantly access your book on any reader app or web browser.

- Speed: The app is now twice as efficient, with the Shop and Catalog screens loading 20% faster and books loading 90% faster. Media is delivered via edge CDN servers globally, ensuring faster and more reliable audio and video streaming.

- Search: Every book now features an in-app search. Simply tap the search icon, start typing, and get a comprehensive index list to navigate quickly.

- Renamed Screens: We’ve made navigation clearer by renaming "Shop" to "Buy" and "Bookshelf" to "Read."

- Shop and Bookshelf Search: Easily search our catalog or your owned books by title, author, style, skill level, or publisher. No more endless scrolling to find what you need.

- Navigation: The Shop catalog now only displays books you don’t own, while the Bookshelf shows only your owned books, making navigation cleaner and less confusing.

- Table of Contents: Each book now has a consistent app-based table of contents for easy navigation.

- Bookmarking: Bookmark pages within the app to quickly access favorite sections, exercises, lessons, and charts.

- Improved Zoom: Double-tap to zoom in on a page, or use granular zoom controls for precise adjustments.

- Account Info: View and manage your account details directly within the app, including password reset options.

- Support: Access common support questions within the app. If you need further assistance, a direct contact option is available.

Limited fuctionality

The app does deliver a multimedia experience as they say, but for books with a large amount of text, this app lacks the ability to highlight, underline, change font size, add multiple bookmarks, or add annotations. You can't markup charts unless you print them. If these things are important to you, don't get the e-version: get the actual book. While font size can be changed by "pinching", as soon as you pinch even a little bit, text disappears off the page and it's annoying dragging it around your screen. You can not use the material with other apps like Kobo, Kindle or Apple Books. If a company is going to charge $20 -- FOR AN E-BOOK -- the app ought to be more full-featured. So, for text-heavy material, I recommend the actual books. For media-heavy books, perhaps try just one book and see if it works out for you.

Great content… HORRIBLE app

What year is it!?
Hudson needs to invest in its content creators. With the most respected educators, this is literally the worst app in the music education market.

No wonder the YouTube and Instagram educators are leaving them in he dust, it’s a shame to see how limiting the use of this app is considering some of the iconic books that are in there.

Even the simple task of separating purchased from non-purchased content would be an improvement. #downloaded #purchased ??

When there is media connected to the book it is glitchy to play on a newest gen iPad.

Once again, amazing educators have put out content on Hudson… the app itself is the problem.

Hello and sorry to hear this. We have just rebuilt our bookstore app from the ground up - I would suggest updating your app to the latest version and seeing if your experience is improved. You can also now contact us directly from within the app for support or feedback if needed!
