Simply Sing: My Singing App 4+

This is the greatest app I’ve used in a very long time. I initially got it to help my daughter who is autistic learn to read better by singing along because she really loves music. I got insist of singing as well. I never thought I would be able to really sing because I had some issues with my voice in the past. In the year, 2000 I completely lost my voice for two years due to acid reflux. I truly never thought I would be able to sing because I also have scarring on my vocal cords from multiple surgical procedures for my knees. I’ve also had three surgical procedures on my vocal cords to try to alleviate the scarring. Wow, with family over Thanksgiving I experienced catharsis. Since then, my singing has become dramatically more powerful. Prior to Thanksgiving when I was saying, and I will let my wife listen to it. She called it torture because my voice was just monotone flat because I wasn’t able to feel the music. But since Thanksgiving, I have been able to sing beautifully with a lot more emotion and feeling been able to carry notes that I never thought I would be able to do to the fact that I had vocal cord issues. I highly recommend this app if you truly want to learn to sing or even if you want to do it just for fun. I am even willing to give a video testimonial to show how much this app has changed my life.

First off, I really enjoy this app. I find that the “training” for the song has already great improved my pitch and range throughout one hour of using it, and the ability to adjust the pitch of the song has helped me move from thinking I was Alto to realizing I was a Mezzo! However, the app does have some drawbacks. First, the obvious problem with the fact that it appears to be free until after you’ve given it your voice. In my opinion, that’s a little shady, as it’s having people give their voice to an AI without telling them that the actual point of the app is paywalled. Second, there isn’t an option for a full song, which is frustrating at best. I like the fact that it’s just a smaller section until I have the time/want to sing the entire song, which the app doesn’t allow. I wish this would change so you can choose a clip or full-song. Lastly, the lack of variety in songs was disappointing. I was really hoping for musicals to be included, only to find only one song from highschool musical… I hope they greatly expand their library, and maybe they should even give you the option to upload a song of your choice (as long as it doesn’t affect any copyright issues). I mean, they didn’t even have any Beyoncé songs. :( Overall, I really enjoy the app, and I’m hoping it works on its transparency, library, and choices when it comes to the length of the song! 😊

This app at the beginning, get your hope up with the introduction it makes you think everything is free but once you get to the actual songs after I adjusted your vocal range, it makes you pay for each and every song you try and play I’m telling you, I clicked on almost every song and you had to pay for every single one and if somebody who doesn’t wanna pay $20 every month or $90 for the full pass, I can go ahead and tell you that if you’re not gonna pay, you might as well just leave the app behind. It told me my vocal range after I did the test, but that’s the only thing that it actually did you get to sing one little tiny part of a song and then you’re done it’s absolutely stupid. I’m only reading this five stars so that way it’ll get on the most helpful review list and you can see it cause they don’t ever put the one star or anything like that on their reviews list. This app just makes me wanna like sue the person who made it. I know it’s not that deep, but it makes me mad because I was actually looking forward to singing on this app. I should’ve known it was too good to be true. I love you guys. God bless and please do not buy this app.
