ABRSM Music Theory Trainer for Negative User Reviews
✓ Can’t unlock info without doing all quizzesI just wanted to use this for revision but you initially only get 4 quizzes at each grade and you have to complete them all to see the next level. Do us a favour and make it unlockable without wasting time on the basics for those on the higher grades..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Please update to reflect the 2020 syllabus changesPlease urgently advise when you plan to update the app to incorporate the 2020 syllabus changes? My 3 star rating will then become a 5 star rating..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Great question and answers but not much knowledge involvedJust starting out learning music theory and for somebody who has yet to learn anything about music theory, I feel there isn’t enough teaching involved in preparation for the questions. Some of the questions are based on topics which haven’t even been covered. It felt like I was having a stab in the dark at some questions. It’s a really great concept that kept me hooked to complete Grade 1 in one sitting but it really does need more in the knowledge and teaching sections before the tests! Please improve this as it really is a fantastic start, just needs more info and explanations..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Don’t size too smallIn grade two the font size is so tiny it’s impossible to read the questions..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Zooming in and outHaving the ability to zoom in and out will make the app more functional on mobile. Especially for those with sight problems. The diagrams are too small to view..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Potential to be greatThis has the potential to be very very good but from a teachers point of view it’s useless. We need to be able to pic any topic on any grade to practice those topics and bits with students there and then. Not having to work through each section to get to to it. Introduce a teacher unlock all function and I’ll change the rating to 5 star..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Good but needs improvementContent really good but the format display for an mobile phone is far too small. Please improve !.Version: 1.0.5
✓ Not in line with new online examsContents not up to date to match up with new online theory exams..Version: 1.0.5
✓ I want a refund!!!Paid the £4.99 and checked out the overview🙂. Thought it would be good but NO😡! This stupid app gets the answer wrong 90% of the time😱😭! No exaggeration. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 This isn’t worth anything..Version: 1.0.2
✓ .I was hoping to use this for specific topics for grade 5 theory, but unlocking levels made this impossible. The ABRSM aural trainer is fab, but this one less so..Version: 1.0.5
✓ App alone not enough to prepare me for G5 examI found this app less accessible and less comprehensive than free online materials. The app requires you to go through every part of a theory grade to access all the topics, which is tedious. The number of testing questions are small - only one set per topic? I am concerned the ‘basics/knowledge and learning’ and the questions after do not actually cover everything I need! The display is very small and notations can be difficult to read. While a good idea, with lots of potential, I could not recommend this to anyone above other free resources I have found. I only bought this app because of its association with ABRSM, but I am disappointed with my purchase..Version: 1.0.5
✓ BadI got 1 mistake out of several questions and they had marked the work as yellow. They treat the work unfairly..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Good but not greatMy son has used this for a few years but a lot more recently in preparation for his grade 5 exam to help with revision. He hasn’t used the information itself- just the questions which have been fine. It would have been helpful to have the sections in the app to reflect the sections of the exam- like 1) Rhythm 2) Pitch 3) keys and scales so you can revise the appropriate section. Also may be to reflect the kind of questions in the online exam..Version: 1.0.5
✓ This app does not workIt is not clear how this app is supposed to work - what is locked / unlocked. Some elements of the quizzes work, others do not. Very disappointed - will be requesting a refund..Version: 1.0
✓ Where’s the update with new style questions?Why has the app not been updated to reflect the style of questions in the new online exams? New paper books have been released so surely the app should be updated to match.....Version: 1.0.5
✓ App doesn’t workJust bought this app to help my son taking Grade 5 theory exam next week. He looked at the overview and thought it would be helpful preparation for his exam. However, he has reported errors in the answers. The correct answer to one question was not available to select from the options and this was the second error in the 8 questions he attempted to answer. This app is not fit for purpose and my son has pointed out that if you want to pass the exam don’t use the app. Will be asking for my payment to be refunded..Version: 1.0.1
✓ OK but well behind similar appsThis app is very basic. The functionality is clunky, and it has not kept pace with similar development of teaching apps. Particular annoyances - Sometimes knowledge is quizzed that hasn’t been introduced previously: e.g. what legato, staccato, etc are. This is annoying and not conducive to learning. - it isn’t explained why you got a question wrong: just that it is wrong with an option to reveal the answer, which makes this basically flash cards. Some additional explainer text for questions would be helpful. - the format is pretty stale and interactive; as above basically just flash cards presented in different ways: things like mock papers, actual sound-based exercises, options to get a mix of questions from across topics, would all be significant improvements - the progress is not intuitive: you can get a green tick in a topic after doing it once, but not actually answered a lot of core questions in the bank. My comparator to this is Duolingo: which obviously has huge resources but great potential to learn from.Version: 2.0.0
