Ratings and Reviews
So far, so good!
I’m liking this app so far, the only drawback I see is the tune library is a bit small. As for the instructional videos, they will come in very handy with my learning, especially piobaireachd. Not having an instructor or being a band member (anymore) leaves you to the mercy of online instruction. This app does a fine job at showing various notes and embellishments. I’m hoping the exercise videos will prompt me to be a bit more consistent with the practice chanter!
Note to the developers- please consider expanding the tune library on a fairly consistent basis to keep the content fresh and attract more subscribers!

Thank you for your feedback. We are very happy that you like our app. We would like to point out that there is also a bagpipe tutorial that goes with the app. All tunes and exercises that are in the book can also be found in the app. By the way, we also give online lessons in English. Many greetings.
Some good info
Very disappointed, videos take a long time to load up to play.

Edit 2021: With the new update you can now download all videos much faster and at once. Good luck. Hi Piper, thank you very much for your feedback. It is a fact that these videos are very complex and require a large amount of data. The download of a video on the WIFI network takes about 5 seconds. Once you have downloaded a video, it is stored in the app and you can access it offline at any time. We are constantly working on improving the app and will install a button at the next update, with which you can download all videos at once. We wish you a lot of fun and joy while practicing with our app.
Garbage
I paid good money for this app sometime ago. I came back to reference it and found that he completely changed, and not only that I cannot access the videos that I had normally been able to see without paying for them now.
As far as I’m concerned, they owe me some money back

Hello AXL, If you purchased the previous full version and installed the new update, the videos that were also available in the old app version should be unlocked. Please make sure to log in with your Apple account in the side menu of the new app version. Let us know if it worked. If not, send us an e-mail and we will help you: app@bagpipe-tutorial.com
It's a real shame that you've given us a bad review before you've spoken to us and we've been able to help you. Fortunately, many of our users are very friendly and seek dialogue first if something doesn't work straight away.
Kind regards
