tl;dr I'm trying to get some feedback from folks about my practice time tracker to see who it appeals to.
Hi all! I post every once in a while about a free web app I created (www.tuneupgrade.com) that helps organize and track your practice time.
It's kinda like fitbit or my fitness pal for music practice. You can enter songs and exercises you're working on, promote things to your repertoire, and build practice routines up or just practice things one off.
I built it to help myself originally and found it so valuable I made it multi-user. It promotes good practice habits, such as:
- Ensuring you don't cut corners on time (i.e. practice those scales for 10 full minutes instead of 6)
- Record your practice notes (makes your practices FAR more productive if you document what you're struggling with and have that at your fingertips next time you start practicing)
- Set a weekly goal of time to achieve
- Have some healthy competition on a weekly leaderboard and a longer term level up mechanic
- Spotify and Youtube integrations to play along with tracks or watch lesson videos within the app
Since a picture's worth 1,000 words, screenshots are below.
Since launching about a year ago, I've gotten quite a few signups, but only a handful of users have really stuck around and continue to use it. Feedback from these users has been amazing, and my core users have told me how helpful it's been, but our userbase is still pretty tiny.
I'd be grateful for any feedback from folks here based on this understanding and even just hitting the homepage (no need to sign up if you don't want to) - like, is this concept appealing? What kind of burning question do you have? Would a quick video showcasing what this is and how to use it help? Any other initial impressions? Have you previously signed up and not found it useful, and why would that be?
Thanks everyone, really appreciate it!
