Well-designed!

This app has all the marks of excellent design plus content. There is almost no learning curve. The mark if a gear app is that you find yourself completely engaged in content and use, and nit laboring with controls and menus. It beautifully captures the wonder of the original split-leaf Psalter which was the ability to apply different tunes to the lyrics. And there are even live recordings for some. The developer has done a remarkable thing—he has made available one if the richest worship books in Church history in a way that glorifies the Word of God.

INCREDIBLE!

This app is amazing! I love the congregational singing (live recoding). It is so easy to follow even the new tunes and helps to explore the Psalms in a new way. Very easy app to use.
Everything works offline with the exception of the live recordings.

Is there a way to have the live recordings work offline? I am curious because I would love to share this with our missionary in Nicaragua to aid with his leading of the psalms, but they do not have internet up river.

Great step above the paper version

However, I would like to adjust the tempo of the music
The Sing Your Part app has found a great way to adjust the tempos of the tunes of hymns (including some psalters inferior to the 1650)
Secondary to that, it also allows adjusting the volume of each part, so that one can focus on the melody or harmony one is trying to learn
If such features could be added to this app, it could make it even faster to memorize each psalm to the tune I find best at the tempo I find best
