I sound better without it. there's no option to slow the songs down so you can actually learn the notes, you just have to replay it as if pressing play on any streaming app. there's no focus on inflections (at least not in the early lessons). I thought for sure I would be judged on Dynamics. I paid for this app in hopes to better connect with live musicians and this made me worse at karaoke... I'll be contacting you guys for a refund.
Reviews for Simply Sing: My Singing App
This is horrible. at first they give you tasks to find a your vocal type which is pretty fun, but once you're done with that, you can't sing any songs in your vocal type unless you pay first. At least give me ONE freaking song so I can actually test the damn app. but you're begging for money before I even get the chance to see the potential of the app, it's crazy!
This seemed like a fun app to download to play around with. I was tested and found my vocal range, and that was pretty much it until they wanted you to buy something. I couldn't even get one song to see if I would even like the app first before wanting to spend money. It's not worth it at all. I'll be uninstalling and just singing on my own, per usual.
They advertised it as some great app that helps with singing. You have to pay for it all and the prices aren't even good. Its 14.99 each month. SERIOUSLY. Why make an app that makes you pay to sing a song. I am more mad at the fact I went through the whole voice thing and little videos just to find out I can’t even use this. It was stupid and I dont recommend. Get an app that doesn't charge you for it.
The main feature marketed for the app (detecting your vocal range) works fine, but that's the only feature you can use before you're prompted to pay for a subscription at least one month long before you can even sing one song using the app, no free trial whatsoever. The whole thing makes me think that the app isn't actually that good, and by the time you realize that you've already spent $15 on a subscription.
A complete scam with misleading advertising. Listed as free but the only thing you can do for free is give them your data. There's 0 free content. W/o paying $15/month or $60 a year there's nothing to do but give them your data for free. The pricing was weird too. Normally things with monthly & annual subscription options offer a small discount on the annual plan for giving them a chunk of cash up-front. This is 300% more for monthly. What, are you not planning to be around in a year?
Everything is behind a paywall past giving you your range, so there is literally no way to even try it and decide if you want to continue with it or if you think the app does a good enough job with transposition to pay for it. I think they should offer about 7-10 songs free so people can decide before the hefty $15/mo which is higher than other similar apps. I can see they have it laid out like a game with levels, but that's about it. The range it gave me was accurate.
Pay-to-play app is terrible because it misleads members into thinking there's free content. The only "free content" is the Vocal Range identifier at the very beginning. Once inside, a list of recommended songs is given, and most other songs have a lock - fair, ok. Turns out that all the songs require Subscription to access - what the huh!? Why have locks on some and not others? To unlock as you gain XP - but that was never explained anywhere through the introduction! Waste of time.
Bait and Switch con here. This app is free to install but not to use. The line about "in app purchases" means everything in the app, not just some things. There is a $15 (rounded) per month or a $100+ dollar annual subscription requirement. What's free: A bunch of repetitive promo ads for the app and the opportunity to scream and hum into your phone. That's it, no songs available. Some songs have locks and some don't. What's the difference? Nothing. All point back to the subscription.
I kept getting this app recommended to me many times and made it seem like it was actually a great deal and I would actually be learning my vocal range and how to sing. but when you actually download it, it actually never works. they don't tell you that you have to pay which is miss leading. you'll be better off with the other singing apps that are free. DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS!!
