This app seems to have great tools to learn sangeet but has lot of issues when navigating ( pages dont show up when you click on menus, need to restart the app multiple times ) making it a very frustrating experince. Hope some one works on it to get it fixed.
Prkrishnan,
Amazing app

SMA Lesson,
Good App
Good app, very helpful for practice. Only problem is that it turns off after a minute if not refreshed.

Doesn’t stay active in the Background
Good sound compared to other apps. But just doesn’t stay on for more than a minute! Stops the moment the iPhone locks

Faulty pitch measuremen
Can't recognize even C properly. My voice goes all the way to A and the graph doesn't show it going down. To make it worse even the sa mentioned in the audio feel like sa.
Ekhura,
Practice Listen section
Very nice app but listen section in practice does not work. Also if they had whole sargam practice that would have been great.

App is confusing. Instructions are not clear. They said if the accuracy is high then it's good but when I tried to match it with green line i got weak score. And when I tried to be above green line I still got weak score. So I am not sure what is the practice margin.
